As for the devastated son, Latimer says the whole family is rallying behind him.

“You were and will continue to hold the world’s greatest wife and mum award.
“Until we meet in heaven, my queen. Love you to the moon and back.”
The 13-year-old boy who is alleged to have caused the crash leading to the tragic deaths has been charged with three counts of dangerous driving causing death.
The event has reignited the debate surrounding youth crime in Queensland, with Latimer calling for 'stricter laws' from the Aussie government.
"This is getting out of control and we need to do something now, before any other people are hurt," she concluded.
