It was fun to be in his company
Even this is completely irrelevant. But this is a human interest story, designed to play on our emotions. So it's completely nonsense anyway! :))

Do you have the link to the article? Maybe we are being harsh on the writer.

Yes, this is also irrelevant, but atleast it is something nice being said about the boy.

Wish I had the link, but there was nothing else in the article except for how the accident occurred and how some people started protesting that wearing a helmet affects hearing and causes more accidents etc. The only things pertaining to the boy were his dad's occupation and that paragraph.
