"I am profoundly saddened by the tragic deaths that occurred in such a heartbreaking way in the home of former Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax. I invite the faithful and all people of goodwill to join me in prayer for the souls of the departed and for the consolation of their children and family. May the Lord grant them healing and peace and the reassurance that he remains with them always, especially in this time of grief and sorrow."
