Just happened upon this story, how sad:
Arizona family found dead in cabin after 'significant failure' of heating system

Neighbors and friends of the family said Tuesday they were devastated by the loss.

"He loved his family, he loved his children, just a great example to follow," Daniel Matlock told FOX10 about his friend, Anthony.

The couple were diehard Arizona Cardinals fans, frequently posting social media pics attending games, and had a family dynamic Matlock said was "something all can strive towards."

Very Sad. I had read about it on AZCentral but seeing the pic makes it that much more real and tragic. I'm sure the odds are extreme but I even said to myself, I need to start taking my plug in Carbon Mono sensor with me on trips to cabins or VRBO's for this reason.

The dad left behind an older son too. They were all too young to go, just a tragedy. I can't imagine how the owner of the cabin feels knowing it was a faulty heater.

Heartbreaking to say the least. My heart goes out to their entire family.

Anybody know if he was a member here?

Hear about to many carbon monoxide incidences every fall and winter. Very upsetting to read about this young family.

Jesus, that story kicked me right in the feels. RIP. So incredibly sad.

I mean, atleast they all died together and didn't suffer? I find some comfort in that for some reason. Not trying to be funny or glib at all. It's just so awful I found the need to find some kind of positive.
