She said she heard from the brothers' concerned sister on Wednesday afternoon. 'She says she's calling and she cannot get a response from them, so I went over and knocked on the door - no response - and I told her no response,' Lewis said. 'I was so shocked when the police came and said they passed away. I'm so, so shocked.' With files from CTV News Toronto's Beth Macdonell
