Kristi and Steve, my heart breaks for you and the rest of the families who lost these beautiful young people in such a horrific way. Maddie and Kaylee are an inspiration for how much they loved and cared for each other. May they rest in peace.
You two are amazing!! I lost my son 16 years ago. He was 23 when he passed. I have never met you, but I love you. I know your pain all to well. I still do special things for my son Christopher. I have learned to live with the absence of his presence. You all are so awesome. You both are extremely strong. God bless you and all the families. ❤❤❤
Kristi is a beautiful woman. I see so much of her in Kaylee. I’m so glad to see that this tragedy hasn’t ruined your marriage. You obviously don’t know me, but I think of your daughter daily. I’m just a random 40 year old mom of 4 in minnesota, and I have so much empathy and compassion for what you’ve been through and continue to go through.
@@shazzaseesMay I ask respectfully, which ones? Only because I’m confused. Alivia & Kaylee are obviously Steve & Kristy’s. How wouldn’t the younger ones be both of theirs as well? I know there is a brother. But I have also heard that Steve has a daughter that he doesn’t speak to, at least that’s what this daughter says. So confusing to me and not really any of my business, but still curious.
@@LaPlaztique The women in the photo weren't sisters (Kaylee and Maddie), so when someone has said they inherited beauty from their mom, sounded like they thought they were (sisters). So point is there are TWO beautiful moms (and dads of course) involved here ❤
This interviewer did such a sweet job of encouraging these heroically resilient, devoted parents to *celebrate* their/"our" girls. It's a touching evolution in the tone of media coverage. I am endlessly admiring of Kristi & Steve. "Most people are good" -- what a transcendent message of grace from the Goncalves family.
The father is right! This could have happened to ANYONE. We are a very violent society. I remembered my own time in college, and it makes me SO sad that these young students were not able to fulfill their opportunity and their beautiful lives. All my best wishes to the families who lost their loved ones to the monster. I know their hearts are still broken.
Also no deserved murder less than anyone else. These aren't special victims, they are the same as all other homicide victims. I wonder if these people ever showed compassion towards others who'd lost their young people prior to this?
I can only imagine the pain these families are going through. I have one son I was blessed to have when I was 43. He's 8 now. When I was expecting, a good friend said to me 'you've just signed up to a lifetime of worry'. Until he was born I'd laughed that off. Now, I live in fear every day of what could happen to him and what happened to these 4 beautiful people is just unimaginable. I admire the strength, the smiles, the fight for positivity and the togetherness the families are managing to achieve. My heart goes out to each parent. It's a parent's worst nightmare. I pray for justice for these young, beautiful victims and I thank their parents for sharing their innermost thoughts and feelings with us. Kaylee, Maddie, Xana and Ethan were shining lights..you can truly see that in every photo and every video we've seen. I for one, will always remember them. God bless xxx
Don’t live in fear mama ❤ that is a lie from the enemy. God is with you and your family every step of the way. Whatever may happen to them just know God will be there. And in any moments of sadness He will be there helping you through the pain. It is a horrible thing to imagine losing a child, but be strong and go forward in Christ❤
Kristi can’t stand the thought of that poor girl…and Steve doesn’t have an ounce of “alpha” in him for not speaking up for Sam! I pray that she’ll be able to accept that it’s a Steve & Kristi problem… Not a Sam problem.
@@jinafromwv6391 Sam is in Peru away from the toxicity this case has become. Sam is better off keeping her distance from Gonzo as he is willing to frame an innocent man to cover up his actions which allegedly caused JJB to put a HIT on the house and Idaho 4 according to Emma B.
I love listening to Steve and Kristi talk about the girls. You can see the pain they carry it’s so visible . But when they start talking about the true essence of the girls the smiles the love that just flows gives me hope that as time goes by there will be more happy days for them then sad❤❤
I can see what a struggle it is to speak. You, Steve & Kristi are admirable parents for taking the road less traveled. May the 😊strength of the lord be there as you need him. Glad you're feeling the love of all of us.
@@desertsunset8025 she is Steve’s oldest daughter from a previous marriage that supposedly Kristi will not allow him or any of their children anything to do with her!
@@desertsunset8025 putting it into perspective, Samantha is still Steve's first born daughter and kaylees oldest sister. "Half sister" is a sister. I technically have a "half" sister who i call my sister and nothing else. ❤
Why didn’t they acknowledge Steve’s daughter from his previous marriage? She’s a half sister to kaylee. It just seems odd to act like she doesn’t exist.
Agree the emotional abuse Samantha has gone through not being able to have a father or same opportunities. This whole notion of treating your daughter or step daughter "as dead to me". I encourage people to go look up that story. You can't possibly look at these 2 parents the same way again. Hate to even use the word parents.
This is very sad to watch them talking about all of the family members. Yet Mr. G’s first daughter is not mentioned. And to hear Mrs. G to talk about “Our Girls” I felt his first born ‘s daughters heart being ripped out of her reality. This is sad on more levels than most of the world have no idea of the true sadness of more than one death. I wish there would of been more of an honest reveal within this family. 😢
Very sad indeed. Can tell Samantha didn't get same chances in life. In the recent Brian Entin interview she unknowingly admitted never visiting the 1122 king rd when kaylee live there nor ever even driving by the house. These aren't the super parents everyone is making them out to be. It is unfortunate they are looking for so much attention
I understand what you are all saying because I was born to divorce , my mom and sister her the 1st born was my sister and I am 51 now the baby & I have never mattered yet I spent my life trying to matter do things right and she has no respect uses my mom and I'm nothing just as she treated ne and said to me for the last time 6 yrs ago but still hurts because I wish my mom loved me still. It's not like you're being rude, just stating fact .
These 2 drive me nuts I’m all set with the G’s ppl can comment all they want about how wonderful they are I just see something totally different. Yes I want justice for all of the 4 students but I am sick of them. They don’t make any sense to me it’s confusion
Kristi and Steve, you ARE in everyone's prayers, without ceasing. Vocal, truthtellers can be an easy target for those who are up to no good, and as you eloquently reminded us as well as yourselves, "MOST people ARE good" and we can remain hopeful that God puts us on a good path. Thank you for being so honest and sharing your beautiful babies with us. We grieve with you. xo
Same. Denying your children’s relationship is heartbreaking but denying your own child is deplorable. I’m sorry they lost a child but he has a child he won’t even acknowledge. How can you say one child meant the world to you and another you deny their existence. I have no respect for him or his wife.
Steve why did you not correct your wife when she forgot YOUR DAUGHTER?! You say these kids did nothing wrong, well niether did Samantha. You have lost 2 daughters, you can have one of them back!!!! 🤬
I think the wife has some insecurities within, it's pure selfishness if she kept him from his other daughter of having any kind of a relationship. Kristi, his blood runs through that other daughters veins like the children you bared with him!
Crying, through this whole interview... Such, strength it takes. We, are all praying for justice. Thank you. You, are the best and most eliquent spokespersons for this case.
My heart goes out to them. They are very strong, and handling this a lot better than most would have. It is unthinkable. I do wish they’d mentioned Samantha because she’s a Goncalves and she’s hurting too. This should never happen to any family.
@@angelmeade6927life goes on, no matter what happens, whether good or bad, joyous or heartbreaking, Samantha has already been set aside, basically from birth, now she's been set aside again, through no fault of her own, I can understand why she has reacted. If the time isn't right now, then when is it going to be right. The case could drag on for years. The best thing Kristi could have done is bring Samantha fully into the family and embrace her, not to replace Kaylee, but to add more love as there is also a baby to consider. This just makes them look pretty. Sorry if anyone is offended as I mean no disrespect just calling it like it is. My condolences to all the families who lost loved ones. Peace
@angelmeade6927 Exactly when would it be a good time for Steve to acknowledge his daughter or for Kristi to accept her & not interfere? Because it certainly didn't happen when they were living their perfect life for the past 20 years. And its been a year now. Would another 10, 20, 30 years be an appropriate time? She has been a victim since birth of their selfishness & it's shameful of them or anyone to expect her to speak only when spoken too. Whether you beleive in Karma, God or law of nature, etc. things happen for a reason, if it were me, I would be getting right with anyone I harmed asap.
The smiley slipped in somehow but I will leave it there. Some one somewhere is laughing.. The evil one or the one who will cause everyone to open there eyes. A strong beautiful family is being attacked on many levels.
Sending all my love and respect to you both. Thank you for the grace that you've shared with all of us. Thank you for your fighting spirit against evil. Thank you for continuing to put positivity, light, and love first in the name of all the beauty that Kaylee and Maddie brought to the world.
My heart is full of compassion for all of our families going through this. I can not imagine what you go through each and every day. I pray you find some kind of peace in time that you can go on with living your lives with the sweet memories of your children dancing in your mind and heart.
Forgot to mention Samantha? When rattling off kids names. If you want the true story of these parents family values do a quick search for Samantha SGs oldest
I am so glad that you are both doing so well. I have three daughters and I cannot imagine the loss you are experiencing. Love, hugs and prayers to the whole family!❤❤🤗🤗🙏🙏
"I feel like it's been forever and I feel like it was yesterday." That hits home with me. That's how I've felt about the loss of loved ones too. Grief comes in waves. This tragedy was so heartbreaking to see these beautiful young people with so much promise and life ahead of them cut short for no reason. God bless you. I'm so sorry. This coming year with the trial and rehashing of what happened is going to be so hard. My thoughts will be with you as I pray for you all for strength, love, and some semblance of closure and healing. They won't be forgotten. May they rest in peace. Much love to you.
That is very kind to say our girls. I have cried and prayed for them from upstate New York. We send great love to your families You are all in our prayers
My Heart Breaks 💔 For All The Families... & I Respect Steve alot, he is trying soooo hard to get this solved and get Justice for Kaylee & Maddie as well As Ethan & Xana.... Sending Lots of Love & Sunshine to each and every family member affected by this heinous crime
You are amazing parents. Your strength is so amazing to! You are all so loved world wide, along with these 4 beautiful kids. I loved when you said “ our girls” .. I truly feel that way, as I’m sure many of us do. Love and strength always to you Kristi and Steve
Love these two ❤ Thank you for sharing all your wonderful memories and funny stories and your bad sad days, I appreciate you’re vulnerability and respect your willingness to share. I for 1 will never forget these 4 lovely young adults 🕊️ 🕊️ 🕊️ 🕊️ Big hugs from Australia 🇦🇺 🐨
I don’t know Kaylee or any of the kids but it has not left my mind for a day. I get sick especially about Kaylee’s injuries. I have one son who means the world to me and I can’t imagine this happening to him. I know Christi believes it’s Bryan but I don’t. I hope that the truth will come out so that the perpetrators will be punished. I don’t understand why none of their friends have come forward with any information to the authorities unless they have and we aren’t being told. I don’t even know what to say that really tells how much I feel for you.
I think of those 4 young wonderful kids everyday. They were great examples of fine people on their ways to successful adulthood. My heart is broken for you, all. You are in my prayers.
Thinking of you guys often! What a beautiful discussion about your beautiful girls! I respect the hell out of both of you for the way you have handled this! They are the story! Not the monster that did this! May he meet his maker someday & pay the ultimate price! Hang in there! I'm sending lots of love from Southern Idaho!
My heart breaks for you guys and the other parents, you guys are so strong and have such a positive outlook,may this soon have an ending for you all, love and prayers from Australia 💔❤️
Weird how he says just trying to find a way to make things better for people around you after losing a biological daughter and a daughter he adopted thru friendship while his other biological daughter is hurting so badly . For the public to know about her and her pain means he has to know . And yet they list the kids and don’t list her . Surely making her life worse ! To be such sensitive people who obviously get even the smallest gestures such as a stranger placing a prayer across the world from them to naming the new grandchild after the girls clearly the get it . Yet the publicly disown his own child who is hurting . Really makes me question what’s going on here ? I feel deeply for each individual impacted by this tragic event but one tragic event seems to be turning into another tragic event in this family that so many especially them are ignoring! Please reach out to your daughter who’s alive and hurting .
God . I can’t even imagine what they’ve gone through. What ALL the families went through but Steve is SO RIGHT . They did everything right and this still happened and I pray to god that as much as that hurts them to know that, they’re more proud of those girls for doing everything right then the sadness they feel about how it happened . What 20- something year old today does everything right ? In our 20s we aren’t responsible lol we don’t make sure we walk with someone else , we don’t make sure we have designated drivers, and that shows amazing character . It breaks my heart but Steve is right . This isn’t a tv show or entertainment this is real and could happen to anyone . They went home and went to bed TOGETHER with multiple friends in that house and had a dog and who would have known that was the most dangerous place they could be. Any of us can go home and go to bed and it happen to us and that is beyond terrifying and has terrified me since this happened . But it’s real and we need to stop pretending it’s not like Steve said . All 4 of them were so special and amazing ❤️🩵 prayers to ALL the families !
I can’t say this surprises me. I’m so moved and thankful the entire family was captured and show the respect and support they deserve.. down to the dog. I can’t get myself to watch this entire thing through... How can anyone accuse me of making this about me? I don’t even exist. I don’t have anything else to say. Beautiful performance Steve. I’ll continue to pray for you.
Sam it's not your fault and believe me it's eating your dad alive as it should. Kristi controls your dad you know this....continue to pray for them and your sister in heaven. I see you love and I know you're broken and hurting. You're a strong woman. It's also okay not to always be strong. It's okay to break down just dont unpack and live there beautiful. Prayers your mother's way too. Bless her heart. Hugs and love your way. ❤
Remember when Steve said that he didn't wanna have to step up to be the alpha? I wonder if that was less of a "challenge" and more of a blunt admittance.
Stay strong Sam and speak your truth! If Gonzo is an Alpha Male, an Alpha Male does not leave a bio-daughter behind. Steve be a man and contact your oldest daughter.
I had no idea there was another sibling. I am so very sorry for your loss. I don't know the history here with your father, but reading into this, I'm also very sorry that you feel invisible. Especially through this heartbreak. One thing I hope you can find even a small piece of comfort in through this tragedy is that you are now fully seen and heard by your sweet sister, Kaylee.🤍 I hope you receive the divine intervention you seek in this situation.🙏💕🫂
Am, I can only imagine the depth of your pain. Please stay strong, take care of yourself and your baby. I pray once this case winds down that Steve n Christi will be open their hearts and minds accept you as their family. If you haven't already and you have correspondence from Kaylee, go over that stuff with a fine-tooth-comb. You may hold the key to solving this case. I pray God watches over you. When yours and gives you the strength to move forward positively and not let this bring you totally down. Not everybody believes you're the bad person here. Sam, and you know you're not. You are just an innocent child brought into this. Spreading love and prayers to you. Stay strong Samantha.❤
Kristi and Steve (and rest of the family) my heart goes out to you, you are amazing and very, very loved, every time I see pictures of the girls, that's exactly what I feel, they are our girls, our angels❤️❤️ thanks for the example of life, of going strong, for being who you are, love you all, really do.
They so courageous! They still close after everything is just inspiring and should show love conquers all. Sorry your family has to go through such pain and thank you for sharing how brave you guys have been. PS love the nails Kristi ❤
Bless this family you can see they are being so strong but at the same time you can see the pain behind their eyes i wish could just give them a hug and take that pain away i cant imagine what this family and all the families of the victims have been through and are still going through sending much love from the uk and may justice for these beautiful souls come soon ❤
So odd because mrs.G says at first "you know, she loved hanging out with her older sisters, her sister and brother, his friends..." so she slips and says older sisters...then corrects herself and says her sister and brother and his friends... unbelievable that there was no mention of Samantha and Mr. G didn't even flinch. ❤ That is his daughter, his child, who was once his baby girl...where is the love for her? I cannot imagine having to see them on TV all the time talking about how special their other children are, how special Maddie is to them because kaylee and Maddie where like sisters and be left out...I am sure kaylee would not want them to leave out samantha regardless of the past history they might have. 💔 it doesn't sit well with my soul.
You can see the impact of these murders on their faces. Emotion’s just under the surface. It’s the same trauma I saw on the faces of parents of victims murdered at Marjorie Stoneman Douglass during the trial.
Mr. and Mrs. Goncalves, I am in awe of you and your strength, and so glad you are a strong couple. Your love for each other and your kids and the girls and their friends is so apparent, and I as a mom of a college kid the same age as the all of them, I feel your grief and can not fathom going through this. Continue please to stick together and raise amazing humans. You clearly are very good at it and have my respect. Much love, hugs, and prayers for you and your families peace and happiness. Your daughters and whole family are beautiful and an amazing example and inspiration to everyone. I’m so sorry for your loss. May justice come swiftly. xx
Utterly tragic. I hope Moscow police actually do a proper investigation. I’m in UK and have followed this from the beginning. Poor poor girls and parents, truly sad.
Sending the kids' family's so much love. The end is not near, stay strong for them. Continue fighting, and being their voices.. You are the every day heroes. Blessings from 🇨🇦
Sending love, light, prayers to you both, your family, and the parents and families of all of these precious young ones, taken too soon in such heinous circumstances. May you eventually find some semblance of peace when the legalities are over, so you can cherish the memories of your children, with love and dignity and know that God is holding them gently in the palm of his hand now. As a mum I can only send you my love and heartfelt condolences. Please also know now that you, and all your other parents and families, are being held up by those of us around the world, who stand in love and solidarity with you. Esther xx (Australia) 😘😘😘😘
First of all i want to tell you and the other families how sorry i am for you. No one should have to go through this senseless murders.. Listening to all the interviews about these 4 amazing young people breaks my heart to know that someone selfish could do this.. I hope and pray that you get justice, i know it won't bring them back but it will make your journey a little easier knowing the monster who done this will pay for this.. God bless you and all the families that are going through this..
We love you and our hearts are with you forever. Thank you for sharing your story. Your kids were the part of what's wonderful around us. 'Most people are good,' i love that. You can see such joy and sweetness in these kids' faces, i think that's why it is so extra heartbreaking. They are what we want this society to be like. Not be just exactly like them, but we want everyone to be able to find the joy and sweetness they were expressing. We can't let the monsters make us so angry that we lose the thing about them that makes them so loved. 💕🥰🤗
Kristi and Steve, I cannot imagine the emotions you and the other parents have gone through over the last year. Such beautiful souls losing their lives so suddenly is beyond belief. God bless you all, knowing that Maddie, Kaylee, Xana and Ethan are at rest. Peace and love ❤️
This was amazing to watch and see how much ppl are loving and helping these families get through this tragedy with this awful situation. God Bless to all the families that were affected and just they’ll always be you 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️

Same. Denying your children’s relationship is heartbreaking but denying your own child is deplorable. I’m sorry they lost a child but he has a child he won’t even acknowledge. How can you say one child meant the world to you and another you deny their existence. I have no respect for him or his wife.
Karma comes when you least expect it.
@@Nunya2Uwhat? Gross comparison
Same here. I don't know how you can go on TV and purposely leave out one of your children over and over.
I wish they would both forge a relationship with Steve’s other child...the time for petty jealousies is over❤
Exactly
Isn't that there a daught Steve doesn't acknowledge/ never sees.
Yes, her name is Samantha
It kinda sends chills up my spine how they feel like her sending those text to joke was playful and funny it sounded like an argument to me
Idaho 4 will never be forgotten. Always in my prayers. 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻❤️
Steve why did you not correct your wife when she forgot YOUR DAUGHTER?! You say these kids did nothing wrong, well niether did Samantha. You have lost 2 daughters, you can have one of them back!!!! 🤬
They were in communication for years🙄
I think the wife has some insecurities within, it's pure selfishness if she kept him from his other daughter of having any kind of a relationship. Kristi, his blood runs through that other daughters veins like the children you bared with him!
@@Acidandrain0 through email only, she hasn't seen him since she was a baby, Kristi made him choose, she was even prevented from seeing Alevia
I agree. Can't call yourself a father. I don't care who is telling you thar you can't have a relationship with one of your children. Falls on him 💯
@@chipsbroker Steve says he is an Alpha Male but an Alpha Male doesn't leave a bio-daughter behind.
Great interview. It was wonderful to hear Mr. and Mrs. Goncalves. So sad for their losses.😢 Blessings sent your way.❤😊
Crying, through this whole interview...
Such, strength it takes.
We, are all praying for justice.
Thank you.
You, are the best and most eliquent spokespersons for this case.
This is such a great interview. Seeing them smile makes me smile. So much love to the Goncalves family!! 🩷🩷
My heart goes out to them. They are very strong, and handling this a lot better than most would have. It is unthinkable. I do wish they’d mentioned Samantha because she’s a Goncalves and she’s hurting too.
This should never happen to any family.
Yes but she needs to understand this is not the time
@@angelmeade6927life goes on, no matter what happens, whether good or bad, joyous or heartbreaking,
Samantha has already been set aside, basically from birth, now she's been set aside again, through no fault of her own, I can understand why she has reacted.
If the time isn't right now, then when is it going to be right. The case could drag on for years.
The best thing Kristi could have done is bring Samantha fully into the family and embrace her, not to replace Kaylee, but to add more love as there is also a baby to consider.
This just makes them look pretty.
Sorry if anyone is offended as I mean no disrespect just calling it like it is.
My condolences to all the families who lost loved ones.
Peace
Who is Samantha?
@angelmeade6927 Exactly when would it be a good time for Steve to acknowledge his daughter or for Kristi to accept her & not interfere? Because it certainly didn't happen when they were living their perfect life for the past 20 years. And its been a year now. Would another 10, 20, 30 years be an appropriate time? She has been a victim since birth of their selfishness & it's shameful of them or anyone to expect her to speak only when spoken too.
Whether you beleive in Karma, God or law of nature, etc. things happen for a reason, if it were me, I would be getting right with anyone I harmed asap.
The smiley slipped in somehow but I will leave it there. Some one somewhere is laughing.. The evil one or the one who will cause everyone to open there eyes. A strong beautiful family is being attacked on many levels.
Sending all my love and respect to you both. Thank you for the grace that you've shared with all of us. Thank you for your fighting spirit against evil. Thank you for continuing to put positivity, light, and love first in the name of all the beauty that Kaylee and Maddie brought to the world.
The grace to go on living for the living and talking about them keeping their spirit alive.
This whole family is just amazing. They will always be in my heart. These 4 college kids will never be forgotten. ❤
God bless this family in.every way
Does that included Sam- the daughter they have just somehow forgotten about?
@@SunnyDays70s yes bless her also
@@pamelagibson470 You’re missing the point. A family is not amazing if they ignore and abandon one of their children.
My heart is full of compassion for all of our families going through this. I can not imagine what you go through each and every day. I pray you find some kind of peace in time that you can go on with living your lives with the sweet memories of your children dancing in your mind and heart.
Was nice to see the interview a year later. God Bless the both of you and all the families!
My condolences Steve & Kristi. Unimaginable grief. Been following from Day 1 because of the four friends. May their memory be a blessing.
I’ve followed your girls terrible
Tragedy since day one/ sending so much love to you as a mum and dad - from the uk 🇬🇧 😊
Forgot to mention Samantha? When rattling off kids names. If you want the true story of these parents family values do a quick search for Samantha SGs oldest
Samantha Nelson. and her daughter.
Maybe it’s for privacy reasons.
My heart goes out to all the families involved in this aweful tragedy....sending thoughts and prayers from Scotland xxxx
The real oldest half sibling is of course not mentioned lol
I am so glad that you are both doing so well. I have three daughters and I cannot imagine the loss you are experiencing. Love, hugs and prayers to the whole family!❤❤🤗🤗🙏🙏
But don’t they want the right person to pay?
Thank you for sharing this Interview! ❤
This family is so amazing. The amount of strength and resilience they have is something no one should have to have. Sending prayers.
my heart hurts so much for the families and victims. I hope they get justice soon
"I feel like it's been forever and I feel like it was yesterday." That hits home with me. That's how I've felt about the loss of loved ones too. Grief comes in waves. This tragedy was so heartbreaking to see these beautiful young people with so much promise and life ahead of them cut short for no reason. God bless you. I'm so sorry. This coming year with the trial and rehashing of what happened is going to be so hard. My thoughts will be with you as I pray for you all for strength, love, and some semblance of closure and healing. They won't be forgotten. May they rest in peace. Much love to you.
That is very kind to say our girls. I have cried and prayed for them from upstate New York. We send great love to your families
You are all in our prayers
My Heart Breaks 💔 For All The Families... & I Respect Steve alot, he is trying soooo hard to get this solved and get Justice for Kaylee & Maddie as well As Ethan & Xana.... Sending Lots of Love & Sunshine to each and every family member affected by this heinous crime
You are amazing parents. Your strength is so amazing to! You are all so loved world wide, along with these 4 beautiful kids. I loved when you said “ our girls” .. I truly feel that way, as I’m sure many of us do. Love and strength always to you Kristi and Steve
How about Sam? Too bad they don’t acknowledge her as one of the girls.
I’m just a middle aged woman in Illinois and I have a 23 y/o daughter and I will NEVER forget these four beautiful people 🕊️🤍🤍🤍🤍🕊️
Wow. I’ve never seen a couple complement each other so well. What great parents ❤
Love these two ❤
Thank you for sharing all your wonderful memories and funny stories and your bad sad days, I appreciate you’re vulnerability and respect your willingness to share.
I for 1 will never forget these 4 lovely young adults 🕊️ 🕊️ 🕊️ 🕊️
Big hugs from Australia 🇦🇺 🐨
Victims
My heart goes out to them
May God's grace sustain them
Don’t show the new baby online to anyone. So many weird people.
They’re on tv a lot, and she gives me bad vibes seems like a cold woman
Rip 🕊 Maddie 🕊 Kaylee 🕊 Xana 🕊 Ethan
I don’t know Kaylee or any of the kids but it has not left my mind for a day. I get sick especially about Kaylee’s injuries. I have one son who means the world to me and I can’t imagine this happening to him. I know Christi believes it’s Bryan but I don’t. I hope that the truth will come out so that the perpetrators will be punished. I don’t understand why none of their friends have come forward with any information to the authorities unless they have and we aren’t being told. I don’t even know what to say that really tells how much I feel for you.
I think of those 4 young wonderful kids everyday. They were great examples of fine people on their ways to successful adulthood. My heart is broken for you, all.
You are in my prayers.
Great to hear love from all around the world. I'm sad but so happy the world shows their love.
Thinking of you guys often! What a beautiful discussion about your beautiful girls! I respect the hell out of both of you for the way you have handled this! They are the story! Not the monster that did this! May he meet his maker someday & pay the ultimate price! Hang in there! I'm sending lots of love from Southern Idaho!
My heart breaks for all 4 families. Keeping them in constant thoughts and prayers as we await justice. 🙏💖
This is good to hear yet incredibly heartbreaking at the same time.
You are remarkable people. God bless you both and all the families and friends of those sweet, innocent children. Xx
My heart breaks for you guys and the other parents, you guys are so strong and have such a positive outlook,may this soon have an ending for you all, love and prayers from Australia 💔❤️
The whole world will never get over it so shocking my heart goes to them all ❤
💕🌱🍃🌿Thank You for reminding Me, “Most People Are Good”🌿🍃🌱💕
Weird how he says just trying to find a way to make things better for people around you after losing a biological daughter and a daughter he adopted thru friendship while his other biological daughter is hurting so badly . For the public to know about her and her pain means he has to know . And yet they list the kids and don’t list her . Surely making her life worse ! To be such sensitive people who obviously get even the smallest gestures such as a stranger placing a prayer across the world from them to naming the new grandchild after the girls clearly the get it . Yet the publicly disown his own child who is hurting . Really makes me question what’s going on here ? I feel deeply for each individual impacted by this tragic event but one tragic event seems to be turning into another tragic event in this family that so many especially them are ignoring! Please reach out to your daughter who’s alive and hurting .
Well stated and I agree 💯
God . I can’t even imagine what they’ve gone through. What ALL the families went through but Steve is SO RIGHT . They did everything right and this still happened and I pray to god that as much as that hurts them to know that, they’re more proud of those girls for doing everything right then the sadness they feel about how it happened . What 20- something year old today does everything right ? In our 20s we aren’t responsible lol we don’t make sure we walk with someone else , we don’t make sure we have designated drivers, and that shows amazing character . It breaks my heart but Steve is right . This isn’t a tv show or entertainment this is real and could happen to anyone . They went home and went to bed TOGETHER with multiple friends in that house and had a dog and who would have known that was the most dangerous place they could be. Any of us can go home and go to bed and it happen to us and that is beyond terrifying and has terrified me since this happened . But it’s real and we need to stop pretending it’s not like Steve said . All 4 of them were so special and amazing ❤️🩵 prayers to ALL the families !
Beautiful interview with these two sending you so much love
I can’t say this surprises me. I’m so moved and thankful the entire family was captured and show the respect and support they deserve.. down to the dog. I can’t get myself to watch this entire thing through... How can anyone accuse me of making this about me? I don’t even exist. I don’t have anything else to say. Beautiful performance Steve. I’ll continue to pray for you.
Sam it's not your fault and believe me it's eating your dad alive as it should. Kristi controls your dad you know this....continue to pray for them and your sister in heaven. I see you love and I know you're broken and hurting. You're a strong woman. It's also okay not to always be strong. It's okay to break down just dont unpack and live there beautiful. Prayers your mother's way too. Bless her heart. Hugs and love your way. ❤
Remember when Steve said that he didn't wanna have to step up to be the alpha? I wonder if that was less of a "challenge" and more of a blunt admittance.
Stay strong Sam and speak your truth! If Gonzo is an Alpha Male, an Alpha Male does not leave a bio-daughter behind. Steve be a man and contact your oldest daughter.
I had no idea there was another sibling. I am so very sorry for your loss. I don't know the history here with your father, but reading into this, I'm also very sorry that you feel invisible. Especially through this heartbreak. One thing I hope you can find even a small piece of comfort in through this tragedy is that you are now fully seen and heard by your sweet sister, Kaylee.🤍 I hope you receive the divine intervention you seek in this situation.🙏💕🫂
Am, I can only imagine the depth of your pain. Please stay strong, take care of yourself and your baby. I pray once this case winds down that Steve n Christi will be open their hearts and minds accept you as their family. If you haven't already and you have correspondence from Kaylee, go over that stuff with a fine-tooth-comb. You may hold the key to solving this case. I pray God watches over you. When yours and gives you the strength to move forward positively and not let this bring you totally down. Not everybody believes you're the bad person here. Sam, and you know you're not. You are just an innocent child brought into this. Spreading love and prayers to you. Stay strong Samantha.❤
Kristi and Steve (and rest of the family) my heart goes out to you, you are amazing and very, very loved, every time I see pictures of the girls, that's exactly what I feel, they are our girls, our angels❤️❤️ thanks for the example of life, of going strong, for being who you are, love you all, really do.
Dude id be bawling my eyes out still...i feel so bad for them its insane!
I love them . Their strength … I can’t explain in words . RIP to Kaylee, Maddie, Xana and Ethan.
I love you guys so much! You're in my daily thoughts and prayers. I pray for justice soon. Your beautiful girls will never be forgotten.
I feel so bad for all the families… one comment I’m confused by… why did she mention the “what did you tell Adam” especially in a cute manner?
And left out the part where JS said they're gonna get you for that Maddie
Sick setup.
They so courageous! They still close after everything is just inspiring and should show love conquers all. Sorry your family has to go through such pain and thank you for sharing how brave you guys have been. PS love the nails Kristi ❤
Heartbreaking, sending so much love all the way from the UK ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Sending you lots of love from Ireland. ❤
Bless this family you can see they are being so strong but at the same time you can see the pain behind their eyes i wish could just give them a hug and take that pain away i cant imagine what this family and all the families of the victims have been through and are still going through sending much love from the uk and may justice for these beautiful souls come soon ❤
1:41 im sorry but the interviewer knew wat she was doing by asking the siblings order. Poor steve check his body language
Poor? For what? He has a daughter, he should mention her. He lost one, why to unlike one of his children? Come on.
I would have asked, no children from other relationships and watched Witchi melt 😂
Very sad he didn't speak up. Those two are in some need of more self reflection less attention seeking
Maggie is awesome I met her years ago when lived in Boise. Agree she is a mom and knew what she was doing when asked that question.
So odd because mrs.G says at first "you know, she loved hanging out with her older sisters, her sister and brother, his friends..." so she slips and says older sisters...then corrects herself and says her sister and brother and his friends... unbelievable that there was no mention of Samantha and Mr. G didn't even flinch. ❤ That is his daughter, his child, who was once his baby girl...where is the love for her? I cannot imagine having to see them on TV all the time talking about how special their other children are, how special Maddie is to them because kaylee and Maddie where like sisters and be left out...I am sure kaylee would not want them to leave out samantha regardless of the past history they might have. 💔 it doesn't sit well with my soul.
You guys are precious. This has touched the world! Know that we care ❤
I feel for all the grieving parents, but something isn’t right.
Their strength is so admirable ❤
You can see the impact of these murders on their faces. Emotion’s just under the surface. It’s the same trauma I saw on the faces of parents of victims murdered at Marjorie Stoneman Douglass during the trial.
Then parents just did an interview with the same journalist . It was heartbreaking. Ethens mother was a mess.
Mr. and Mrs. Goncalves, I am in awe of you and your strength, and so glad you are a strong couple. Your love for each other and your kids and the girls and their friends is so apparent, and I as a mom of a college kid the same age as the all of them, I feel your grief and can not fathom going through this. Continue please to stick together and raise amazing humans. You clearly are very good at it and have my respect. Much love, hugs, and prayers for you and your families peace and happiness. Your daughters and whole family are beautiful and an amazing example and inspiration to everyone. I’m so sorry for your loss. May justice come swiftly. xx
I agree, this type of thing unfortunately breaks up a lot of families which I never understood because that's when you really gotta be strong.
I needed to hear this message today.
Utterly tragic. I hope Moscow police actually do a proper investigation. I’m in UK and have followed this from the beginning. Poor poor girls and parents, truly sad.
Sending the kids' family's so much love. The end is not near, stay strong for them. Continue fighting, and being their voices.. You are the every day heroes.
Blessings from 🇨🇦
Sending love, light, prayers to you both, your family, and the parents and families of all of these precious young ones, taken too soon in such heinous circumstances. May you eventually find some semblance of peace when the legalities are over, so you can cherish the memories of your children, with love and dignity and know that God is holding them gently in the palm of his hand now. As a mum I can only send you my love and heartfelt condolences. Please also know now that you, and all your other parents and families, are being held up by those of us around the world, who stand in love and solidarity with you. Esther xx (Australia) 😘😘😘😘
Thank you for sharing your girls love with us all. God bless you and your family and angel Kaylee, forever. 🙏 😢
I have no words except if I had one wish I would want the four fabulous kids to be alive! It breaks my heart! God bless you and all your families!
First of all i want to tell you and the other families how sorry i am for you. No one should have to go through this senseless murders..
Listening to all the interviews about these 4 amazing young people breaks my heart to know that someone selfish could do this..
I hope and pray that you get justice, i know it won't bring them back but it will make your journey a little easier knowing the monster who done this will pay for this..
God bless you and all the families that are going through this..
We love you and our hearts are with you forever. Thank you for sharing your story. Your kids were the part of what's wonderful around us.
'Most people are good,' i love that.
You can see such joy and sweetness in these kids' faces, i think that's why it is so extra heartbreaking.
They are what we want this society to be like.
Not be just exactly like them, but we want everyone to be able to find the joy and sweetness they were expressing.
We can't let the monsters make us so angry that we lose the thing about them that makes them so loved.
💕🥰🤗
Such a strong family.❤❤❤
Maddie and kaylee had so much love for each other sisters best friends forever ❤❤❤
😢 sending my love to there family's..😢❤
Kristi and Steve, I cannot imagine the emotions you and the other parents have gone through over the last year. Such beautiful souls losing their lives so suddenly is beyond belief. God bless you all, knowing that Maddie, Kaylee, Xana and Ethan are at rest. Peace and love ❤️
Thank you for sharing. May God love you all.
My heart Is broken for these two and all the parents
This was amazing to watch and see how much ppl are loving and helping these families get through this tragedy with this awful situation. God Bless to all the families that were affected and just they’ll always be you 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️
Samantha is part of your Family…DNA.
