Grief can be so hard, but our memories and the support of others help us cope. Remembering you and Spencer today!!!

I just read this beutiful entry. I was Spencers dance teacher. I was very sorry to see spencer go, he was extremely talented. I know somewhere I have a video of the show he was in, I would like to connect with Spencers Mom and see if she remember the year he danced with us or the music he danced to ..

I think of Spencer often. Always smiling, engaging, thoughtful young man. A protector of friends and family, a sensitive thinker, Spencer continues to be with us who knew him and he is missed•

I always loved seeing Spenser dance.
