You can see it in the family made sign. (photo) People use different spellings all the time now. I'm glad to see the reporter didn't assume it was spelled with an i. How great they all moved forward and continued. What a strong family. God bless them.

People do use unusual spellings and sadly the child has to battle it their entire life. My mom used a weird spelling for my name and I hated it. As an adult I legally changed my name to avoid the hassle and insult of constantly having my name misspelled or mispronounced. Glad the Dad survived and the family is adjusting to their new "normal."

Who cares how its spelt! The story's not about how his name is spelt, for goodness sake.
