But for now, we will take some time to grieve and process the loss of our brother, who we loved dearly. The memories we shared with him will be treasured forever. For now, our thoughts are with his family, his friends, and the fans who loved him alongside us. We will miss him terribly,\u201d their statement continued. Many others joined in publicly mourning his loss.<\/p>\n Kate Cassidy<\/em>, Payne’s girlfriend who had accompanied him to Argentina, arrived at the church alongside model Damian Hurley<\/strong>.
