Relatives of a 10-year-old boy who woke up earlier this week to find his parents and three older brothers dead in their Oklahoma home has launched a GoFundMe campaign to help with expenses following the murders.

The fundraiser was created by the boy’s uncle, Brent Remerowski, who wrote that the funds will go towards “funeral expenses, counseling, education, and the child's general welfare.”

The 10-year-old boy — whose name hasn’t been shared by authorities or family — dialed 911 after waking up and discovering five bodies at home on the morning of April 22, Oklahoma City police previously said. The boy said that everyone in the home appeared to be dead, according to police.

According to ABC News, Oklahoma City Police Sgt. Gary Knight said the boy was in his room sleeping with the door closed and a box fan on during the murders, presumably muffling any sound.

“There is no indication he didn't sleep through it,” Knight said, per the outlet.

According to police, Jonathon Candy, 42, killed his wife, Lindsay Candy, 39, after the two "became involved in an altercation" and then fatally shot three of their four children — Dylan Candy, 18, Ethan Candy, 14, and Lucas Candy, 12. Jonathon then turned the gun on himself.
