OKLAHOMA CITY — With hundreds of people gathered Friday to remember the life of 9-year-old Tommy Wolf, the Rev. Rick Stansberry addressed the question likely on everyone's mind. Why?

"This is one of those times in which there is no real explanation," the priest said during a funeral homily for the third-grader, who was stabbed to death Monday in his family's kitchen in Nichols Hills.

A copy of Stansberry's homily was provided to The Oklahoman after the service. The funeral was not attended by the media.
