Granger remembered:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI was 20 feet away. I was playing gymnastics with my daughter. He was outside of the locked gate with our other son. There wasn\u2019t music playing; there wasn\u2019t any kind of distractions. It was just a quiet, 7 p.m. summer evening. It was so silent. There wasn\u2019t a splash; there wasn\u2019t any kind of call for help. I just saw him. I turned around, and I saw him.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Unfortunately, tragedies can happen to anyone at any time \u2014 which is why it\u2019s all the more important for us to be kind to one another.<\/p>\n<p class=\"image_cite\"><em>[Image via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/amberemilysmith\/?hl=en\">Instagram<\/a>\/<a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9SbaNl13pkU\">NBC<\/a>]<\/em>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async defer src=\"https:\/\/platform.instagram.com\/en_US\/embeds.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
