Callan,
I'm gonna miss you. I know we didn't talk much after freshman year, but you were one of my better friends from Mountain Veiw and I have so many memories from then it's hard to believe this happened. Watch over us, and keep us safe. Party it up up there! Say hey to Sammi and Grandma for me please <3
