To commemorate the 20th Anniversary of 9/11, CNBC is remembering the fallen heroes who have graced our channel. Entrepreneur and former firefighter Keith Young was diagnosed with a 9/11 related cancer after working at Ground Zero. Sadly he passed away before he could see his invention Cup Board Pro take off, but his children continued his legacy.

When he said he was a widower also I began to cry. Poor kids lost both their parents.

This is one of the most wholesome clips on shark tank.

R.I.P to their parents and all 9/11 Victims 🕊

The daughters crying is one thing...but the cold, numb look on the son's face...true pain 😔

[bebab]

Daymond has a gold heart...He is the most one who got moved and he always loves to help people

[jessicagrabowski]

The offer that the sharks came back with was the most moving thing I’ve ever heard of or seen! I’m star struck. The fact these kids were able to come together and work together after they lost both their parents is amazing. Me and my brother fight none stop.

[BlackDiamond]

My heart hurts for these kids yet they are so strong. Your parents are angels watching over you now. God bless you all.

Just my opinion - This was one of the most moving episodes in Shark Tank and Sharks made the most wonderful offer. Sending my prayers to all the families that lost their dear ones due to any reason related to 9/11 as well as those who braved cancer. Special prayer for these three kids. May their parents live through them

The thing that makes me happy about this is I know Christian, Keira and Kaley personally. Keith and his wife Beth were very close family friends with my mom and her family, and we even own a copy of Keith’s cookbook in our house. I love this episode because not only do I get to see my family, but I get to see them continue his legacy and I couldn’t be more than happy for their success. Phenomenal episode, so moving.

Having lost both my parents by the age of 20 I can totally understand. I truly believe I and they have guardian angels watching over them. Well deserved and their parents had a hand in this success

[silverleviathan]

I bought 2 of these boards...1 for my brother and 1 for my mom. I think I'm gonna buy 1 more for a friend. I am willing to support this family by any means. I can't imagine what these children are going through. Every time I watch this, I start to cry...this is very deep.

"Who's ready to make our dad's dream a reality with us." When I heard the youngest child voice break . It really hurt my heart 💔😢🥺. My heart hurts for all of these kids. They lost both of their parents, that is a type of pain that will never go away. I will be praying for these kids 🙏🏾.

I remember the dad, Keith Young, from the Chopped Father's Day episode. His story was inspirational then. This is beyond. I need to get this product today and support this family!

[lightsabermetrics]

1:42 is the most heartbreaking moment, hearing Keira try keeping her voice together.

[JJ-land]

Never gets old seeing this.

I have a feeling Daymond found them off camera, as a fellow New Yorker, and offered to help them personally, if they ever need anything.

[MICROMEDIXCORP]

Sharks, it was the absolute right thing to do by them, their hero dad and valiant mom. By giving them an opportunity to work with all of you these kids will go places. Thank you....

[jodeeb.]

When I think I'm having a rough day, life's not fair to me, someone cut me off driving or maybe I just feel grumpy: I will remember what I just saw. Their courage is inspiring. I don't remember feeling so moved by any episode such as this one. How dare I feel anything but gratitude!!!

[Ayzlxn]

Tears are flowing in my eyes rn, I can’t imagine the pain these kids went through they must be so strong. I’m glad all 5 sharks partnered together for this. May the mom and dad, and all 9/11 victims Rest In Peace.

[SryMsJackson]

Losing both parents when I was 21 was the harder at thing in life. I’m 25 now and getting through this episode was VERY hard.

[HappyHourGirlKola]

So sad they lost both of their parents 😢. I’m glad they got a generous deal.

[rsahota]

From how well dressed and spoken the 3 children are I can only imagine how great their parents must have been, pure class from guests and host 😇
