Martin Richard was among the three people killed in the explosions Monday, according to a person who talked with a friend of the family and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

CBC's John Northcott reported that the boy was waiting with his mother and his sister for his father, who was running the race. "His mother suffered severe traumatic brain injury," Northcott said. "His six-year-old sister has lost a leg."

The children's father, Bill, is the director of a local community group. The boy's mother, Denise, works at the Neighborhood House Charter School, where her children attend classes.

Martin Richard was being remembered as a vivacious boy who loved to run and climb.

A candle burned on the stoop of the family's single-family home in Boston's Dorchester section Tuesday, and the word "Peace" was written in chalk on the front walkway.

Neighbour Betty Delorey said Martin loved to climb the neighbourhood trees, and hop the fence outside his home.
