I ran cross country with Evan and he was a kid that I am proud to call a friend of mine. His attitude was always positive no matter the circumstances and he always brought a smile to everyone on the team with his wonderfully, querkey spirit. My favorite memory of Evan was his desire to run and partake in all post school events shoeless and shirtless, even in the blistering cold he would be outside like this and whenever someone offered him a jacket or told him to put some more clothes on he would happily respond with a smile "I'm good". I'm sorry for your loss and will keep your family in my thoughts and prayers are with the family in their time of despair.
