But now Sarah Mazi's brother, Stephen Furlong, said they still don't know how they are going to tell their son that his parents aren't at work.
"We still have to actually tell him that mum and dad aren't coming home… I don't know how we are going to tell him," Furlong, told 7 News.

The Mazis, who are both drivers for UberEats - were on their way to work when they were struck by the P-plate driver.
Police said the teen hit another vehicle carrying five people, spinning it around, before ploughing into the car carrying the Mazis.
The driver of the other car, Lachlan Fleming, told 9 News the speeding car came flying towards him, forcing him to swerve off the busy highway.
"Next minute I know there's a car in my lane coming towards me ... in my mind I'm like, what do I do?
"I reckon we would have died."
