I didn't know Desi well, he was a few grades behind me, but I'm devastated by this. I wish I'd known sooner. Will be praying for his family and friends. Fly high Desi.

I am so sorry for your loss. Desi sounds like an amazing young man. I pray Desi's friends will surround you, and fill you with love. They need you as much as you need them.

My deepest sympathy to you and your family. I'd like to share a memory of your time in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. My parents, Hans and Irene Schwark, lived across the street from you, and talked often about how much they enjoyed spending time with your young family. May Desi live in our hearts forever.

I´ll never forget get how you never failed to crack a joke and how we would always talk about the funniest things. I understand that I wont have as much time as I thought with you but you will never be forgotten.

Had you in my 8th grade art and geography class. I´ll miss sitting with you. Always made them so much more fun. You always made some joke about something and always made everyone laugh. I miss playing Forza and talking about stupid stuff with you. Won´t ever delete the car you made on my account. Glad for the friendship we had. Miss you bro. Forever 15.

I met desi through my sister, he was a amazing friend to both of us. he was my dance partner in my sisters quince, he made every practice a fun time even if we were all dreading it, he made everyone happy to be there. on the first day of school I didn't have anyone to sit with at lunch so he sat with me and every day for the first few weeks, which is how we got so close and I took advantage of the time we had, he was one of my first genuine friends in high school. I'm missing him more and...
