A parent should not have to lay a child to rest. As I did not know your son he was a friend of my son Jalen. I cannot imagine what you must be going through. May the lord wrap his arms around you all and comfort you.

I had the privilege to teach John in my English 11 class last year. We had a good relationship from the beginning because of my connection to Boston, Massachusetts. We had some good conversations about the BoSox and the incredible food/restaurants. John always came by to see me with a smile whether he was scheduled to be in class or not. His fun loving personality will be missed. I offer my heartfelt sympathy to his family and friends.
