Question about English (US)
Peter was a very pity child. His mother was passing away when he was 8 years old. So, he just could bound together with his father. Unfortunately, his father died in a car accident last year. Since then, we never been seen he laughed after all. Soon after, he suicided at his mother grave. Even now, I still often blame myself that should have more care about him. But old time is still flying, we should more cherish people around us. Does this sound natural?

Peter was a very pitiable child. His mother passed away when he was 8, so he could only bond with his father. Unfortunately, his father died in a car accident last year. Since then we have never seen him laugh. Soon after he committed suicide at his mother's grave. Even now I still blame myself that I should have cared more about him. But time is fleeting so we should cherish those around us.
