Inside their modest, pale green California bungalow, the routines of family life for Jens Sund and his three children go on much as they always have. The family's two dogs, Reggie, a bichon frise, and Gigi, a poodle, clamor for attention.
Dirty laundry piles up at the washing machine.
You had a friend over for the last 24 hours. We're going to go out and buy you some shin guards and black soccer socks. Walking past a hallway lined with framed family photos assembled by his wife, Sund opened the door to Juli's room, which has been left mostly untouched since her death. Sund said he is trying to use the room to keep it from becoming a shrine. He and other family members often take naps on her bed.
