MONTROSE, N.Y. -- The brother of a man killed in the derailment of a New York commuter train said at his funeral Thursday that the accident was "just not fair."

Charlie Ferrari said James Ferrari was a happy man who had found what he wanted.

"He hoped to find someone who loved him and someone he could love back. He found that in Francie," his wife, the brother said. "He was a man who actually got all he ever wished for. ... This accident was just not fair."

James Ferrari, a building superintendent, was killed Sunday on his way to work in Manhattan when a Metro-North commuter train derailed in the Bronx. Three others also died. An investigation is focusing on the train's high speed as it entered a curve.
