Ambrose described the boy as a “strong, loving, caring, funny, happy little boy” and expressed the family’s immense heartbreak.
The boy’s mother, Jada Haddad, shared her grief on Facebook, saying, “Home does not feel like home anymore… I feel so empty.” The community has rallied around the family, offering donations and words of support during this incredibly difficult time.
