Dulos Children Said Goodbye To Father Before His Death

The five children of the late Jennifer Farber and Fotis Dulos visited their father in the hospital, according to a family spokesperson.

NEW CANAAN, CT — The five children of the late Jennifer and Fotis Dulos saw their father and said goodbye to him in the hospital before his death in late January, according to Carrie Luft, spokesperson for the family and friends of Jennifer Farber Dulos.

The children, who had not seen their father since last May, a couple of days before their mother disappeared, visited him in Jacobi Medical Center before he was taken off life-support following his attempted suicide. Fox61 was the first to report on the visit.

Patch reached out to Luft, who has served as spokesperson since Jennifer Dulos' disappearance, and received the following statement:

Five children have lost both parents in the span of eight months. Our top priorities are ensuring their wellbeing and protecting their privacy. Understandably, they wished to say goodbye to their father, which we arranged with the assistance of hospital personnel.

Tragically, the children have not been -- and may never be -- able to say goodbye to their mother, Jennifer, who remains missing. This devastating reality continues, and we ask once again that the privacy of the families and loved ones be honored.
