Miley Cyrus 'Deeply Saddened' by Bus Driver's Death

After one of
Miley Cyrus' tour buses crashed, leaving the driver dead, the Cyrus family wrote a message on the Disney starlet's
Web site, expressing their condolences.
"We are deeply saddened by the loss of Bill "Uncle Bill" Douglas. Members of our tour are like members of our family," the message read.
"Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family in the midst of this tragedy. He will truly be missed," it finished.
The 'Hannah Montana' sensation was not on the bus when the accident occurred on Friday in Virginia.

It is horrible for any family to have a tragic death in the family, but so close to the holidays. That makes it even worse. My condolences to his family and all that loved him. May god bless and be with his family.

Yeah, they posted it on a "website". Guess what? They're going to keep going with the tour. Wow, a guy dies and all he gets is a website mention! This is just sad, I wish she would do something more than just that. The dead bus driver deserves so much more than just a webiste mention. Can we care more about the dead guy than Miley? Wow, I doubt they acutaly cared.

What would you suggest they do? Go into mourning for a year? Life does go on and I believe the driver would want the tour to continue.
When my grandmother passed, we were only give 3-5 days for the funeral before we had to return to work or risk losing our jobs - why should that be different for a concert?

Why do you assume that is all they did. Does everything that was said or done for the family of this bus driver by The Cyrus's have to be done in public for your approval? Get over it people. You don't have the right to know everything about what goes on behind the scenes in a star's life.

Luckydavis641, Life goes on. I don't know how old you are, but, if your Mother or Father die your workplace only gives you a day or two very occasionally a week off. If you have a child or husband that dies they only give you a week off. They don't cancel broadway shows because a ticket take dies now do they? Sad as it may be, they have an obligation to all the people who brought tickets for the show. It's sad, but it's a fact of life.

This is a classic case of "you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't..." luckydavis641, you have absolutely no right to sit in judgment of the Cyrus family. You don't know what they've done out of the public eye due to their bus driver's death and you don't know what they have yet to do! Did you even consider that perhaps the Cyruses don't want their actions or reactions to be made a big deal of for the public? You know, Jesus had nothing kind to say to the church's big shots when they made a public display out of their tythes. As a matter of fact, He told them that they had already received their just reward right here on earth because they were seeking and had received public recognition for their actions; however, He said that the woman who quietly went in and gave her last little bit of money to the synagogue "in secret" would receive her reward in Heaven! Do you see now why the Cyrus family hasn't made a big display out of what they've done, nor what they plan to do, because of the bus driver's death? The Cyruses are Christians and I'm sure God is pleased over the fact that, following Jesus's lead, they've done their good deeds quietly and "in secret." Not that it matters, but I'm proud of them too.

Miley and family have stated their feelings. What more do you want? You have no idea what tears they've shed or how they feel about the guy and I'm sure they will be there for his family at this terrible time. She and her family are the real deal. It's NOT all about her. Take it easy, geez.

She just replied to the wrong person... think she meant to reply to luckydavis. Twilight is a (vampire/love story) book series. The series has been turned into blockbuster movies with the second movie of the series at theaters now.

Geezzz!!! I'd say you have some serious issues.
As for accusing someone of being a specific type of person... most people take issue with people who are MOST LIKE them. SO... I think If I were you Id look in the Mirror.

gee white chick, tell us how you really feel. You took a cheap shot, so here is one back atcha
Anyone that identifies herself as "white" and a "chick" is obviously IQ deficient and probably has some sort of std picked up "off a toilet seat". You are probably a sad reject of whatever club you wish to be a part of and you probably would drop your knickers (Oh Im sorry I need to speak in your language, your thong) to farm animals and various green vegetables. I dont give a rats ass about miley, or her family, but she at least seems to be moving ahead with her life. You suck!
How does it feel dipwad?
