I loved Mister. I lived in Arco for just a couple years-6th-8th grade. We were instant friends. We played paintball a bit & that was quite memorable for me. He was welcome at my home & I was at his. He had a great spirit & he was just fun. He is remembered, love & god bless.

I'm so sorry to hear of your son's passing. I still remember him as the bold, active little friend of my brother Adam. He truly was a little Mister with his inquisitive ways and funny comments. He always brought smiles, and was well liked by his peers and upperclassman alike. It helped that we all loved his mother Loretta so much too. You are a great family. I hope the good memories and knowledge of God's love bring peace to your family.
