If there are any Kennedys left they might want to consider taking this quarantine thing seriously.

Another Kennedy dying young. So very sad. My prayers goes out to the family.

This is beyond sad, this poor family. Lord comfort the family and friends.

[Milosz_Ostrow]

No mention of either victim wearing a life vest.

[Wasparcher]

You would think Kennedy's would learn to avoid bodies of water...

[alainconnelly]

I pray for the children. Can't believe this lady would put her son at risk like this. Seems like there might be more to this story.

[Azmodaeus]

i find the kennedys weird, they get caught up in the weirdest things and never live to see the next day, it's like a curse.

Hypothermia in the water has probably killed more people than drowning. The water in the Chesapeake in early April is ice cold.

So sad. This Great family has had so much pain and suffering enough for 10 family’s.

If you take a child in the water you have a responsibility to make sure that child has a life jacket. As a responsible parent you better be wearing one too.

As a mother, if my kid kicks a ball into the ocean we get a new ball. And even if for some reason I decided to go get it, my kid is not coming with me. What is REALLY going on?? None of it makes sense. Who came up with that story?

[saunsiaraybroussard]

Very sad. I'm sorry for your loss. My condolences and prayers. May they Rest in peace! God bless!

[painkillerjones]

Seems like you should avoid any kind of sporting/outdoor activities if you're a Kennedy. No skiing, no flying, no canoeing, no parking of a PT boat, no cruising with the top down, no driving across bridges after a party....

[JustAGuy]

Who in their right mind that has a ounce of common sense goes out in rough water in a damn canoe in Chesapeake Bay to chase down a ball and takes their young child with them? Pure stupidity no matter how you look at it. I hope the dad has more common sense than she did.

[jenniferbogacki]

This mystery has been going on for decades.

[donjuantrumpetajohnson]

Why is the father casually reporting the ongoing status on social media? I would be a wreck. Totally devastated. Not tweeting like I'm reading a IKEA manual.

[lisadupree-pzwg]

How do they find her body after 4 days

[theresamiles]

This is so very sad to imagine this family has suffered another horrible tragedy. My Prayers go out to the Kennedy Family

[cfpup]

Come on, "took off in a canoe." Rubbish. I fear that family yelled "timber" too soon.

[fredricksmith-something.]

That poor family. It's almost like they are cursed. So many of them die in such tragic incidents.
