Sad,
RIP to him and the other guy. Prayers to the families & friends for the loss, sorrow & hurt these tragedies have caused.
Be safe out there people, even if you live in a small town.
Those commuting or who driving 1hr to over 2hrs for work. Limit your risk exposures. My opinion and experience is that NYC area has a ton of unaccounted for risks and less rewards. Dangers from various angles, city violations, risks from various sources & likelihood of negativity all over NYC boroughs. You might be safe, but external forces and risks exposures might be unavoidable. NYC is a growing problem.

Note there's a different GoFundMe set up for his wife and daughter. This is the one closing in on 30k so far.
