I knew it because I sat with him in my lunch blocks all last year at Kellam high school. He was a really cool person that would be a friend to a person that did not have friends. He was kind to everybody encluding new people to the school like me. I will keep you guys in my prayers and I will always miss you my good friend J.T.
