    how sad, what is this town coming to. No longer safe in your own home. Hope they catch these low life thugs who had to pick on helpless senior citizens. Gutless waste of air. Prayers to the victims family and friends.

    I just hope someone steps up and says I seen this or that as I dont see how someone can set a car on fire and noone notice anything suspicious .
    Or someone seeing someone leaving in the stolen car or something but what is so sad these people lived their lifes clean hurting noone and some punk or punks have no value for life think taking someones life is worth any amount of money.
    I hope whoever involved in this reads this and stops and thinks how they would feel if this was their mother or father or grand parents.
    Hopefully their was more then 1 involved that way 1 may tell thinking the other might tell first and they tell first.
    They need to find these punks and give them the electric chair Makes me sick to think someone can do something like this with no feelings
