Grayson Murray‘s family spoke out about his untimely death in a new statement. The late golfer’s parents, Eric and Terry Murray, penned a heartfelt note, which the PGA Tour shared via Instagram on behalf of the Murrays shortly after his death was confirmed.
“We have spent the last 24 hours trying to come to terms with the fact that our son is gone,” they wrote. “It’s surreal that we not only have to admit it to ourselves, but that we also have to acknowledge it to the world. It’s a nightmare.”
While pointing out that they “have so many questions that have no answers,” Terry and Eric added there is “one” they know.
“Was Grayson loved? The answer is ‘yes,’” they continued. “But us, his brother Cameron, his sister Erica, all of his extended family, by his friends, by his fellow players and—it seems—by many of you who are reading this. He was loved and he will be missed.”
The Murrays also acknowledged that “life wasn’t always easy for Grayson, and although he took his own life, we know he rest peacefully now.”
“Please respect our privacy as we work through this incredible tragedy, and please honor Grayson by being kind to one another,” they concluded in their statement. “If that becomes his legacy, we could ask for nothing else.”
