In 2008, 10-year-old Joshua Long passed away from complications after being hit by a car seven years prior. In August, mother, Sonia Long, and stepfather, John Leak, alongside the three daughters enjoyed a week long vacation at Vacation Villas in Florida.
“Some remarkable things took place on our first night here in Orlando. We as a family realized that the one who would have enjoyed the trip the most was no longer with us.

But, we are a family celebrating our Joshua and we look forward to tomorrow."
