I did not know Torrin but I am so proud of his accomplishments and the trail that he blazed while he was here with us on earth. He seemed like an excellent young man that made a great difference in people's lives. It is completely remarkable to see this kind of passion and determination that Torrin exuded while he was here. I'm sure this young man has a place in God's kingdom and will be waiting to see you all again soon one day. I am a friend of Kreytesa and your family has continually been in my prayers. Stay strong and know that God will see you through. One love. - Des Thomas
