Heidi Montag Says Stepbrothers Death is “Such a Tragedy”

“Losing my brother, at an early age, it such a tragedy. I just loved him more than anything,” says the 21-year-old in a statement.

O’Hara died Thursday after a freak accident at the Steamboat Grand Resort Hotel in Colorado where he worked. The Iraq war veteran slipped on a roof while attempting to remove snow.

“He was just so patriotic. He really wanted to go to Iraq and help and do all that he couple do for this country,” Montag adds. “He felt like this was his duty. I’ll really miss him.”

Eric is survived by his mother Terri, stepfather Bill, two sisters, and two stepsisters among other relatives.
