Well, this situation has taken yet another twist, for the worse. Seems as though some scum bag broke into this guy's house and stole much of the gifts that have already been delivered to his family. This kind of stuff is disgusting, especially at this time of the year and the given circumstances. Please see link...

http://www.baynews9.com/images/style/camera_icon.gifLevi was arrested (http://www.baynews9.com/VideoPlayer/?Burglary_Arrest_1221) Thursday.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office has arrested a Lutz woman who allegedly burglarized a home while the residents wereattending a funeral.

Dawn Levi, 26, denied involvement in the crime as she was escorted to jail Thursday on charges of burglary, grand theft and carrying a concealed weapon.

"How do you describe somebody like that?" said victim Deborah Pell. "There's not blood, because blood is warmth going through somebody's heart. That's ice going through her heart. That's exactly what went through my mind."

Pell and her family were at her daughter's funeral when the incident happened on 66th Street North in Tampa on Sunday. They came home to find the back door wide open. The burglars took a television set, an X-box and several other items. It made a bad situation worse for the three children their mother left behind.

This room in the home was ransacked (http://www.baynews9.com/images/news/2006/12/21/lgfuneral3.jpg).
Pell says various people sent the family a television, some cash and messages of support, which helped lift their spirits. She says that's what she's emphasizing to her grandchildren this holiday season.

"And the outpouring of all of the cards, calls and gifts, it's showing the children that the world really isn't that way," said Pell. "There are really only a very few people like that in this world."

Authorities are still looking for a man believed to be an accomplice in the crime.

That's awesome. Justice will be served hopefully.
