No I have been lucky and haven't had a family member disappear. However, when a family member passes in my family, there are about 25-35 people at the hospital/house within 1 hour or so everyone drops what they are doing (including vacation plans) to be with the family to express support or do what they can. I guess I'm fortunate to have a family that thinks that way.
The reporter also thought his attending a game a few hours after being told his daughter disappeared unusual enough that he put it in his story.

I guess I missed the part of the story that said he left his grieving family behind. I'm glad you find comfort in the way your family handles grief and I'm sure Bob Gainey wont find fault in it.
