To all of my friends and family that signed this book, I want to let you know that I love you and I am so grateful to be surrounded by such caring and compassionate people like you. God is good and I know that He does not make mistakes. I know that even through this tragedy, God will get the glory for He is an awesome God and I know that He will not put anymore on us than we can bear. Even though I am very sad that I will not see my son physically, I still carry him in my heart and I know that one day I will see him again. Thank you for all of your prayers, cards, flowers, hugs and kisses and support that you have shown me and my family. We love you all. Love Always, The Burrell, Parish and Freeman Families

To the family of Justin Burrell: I am sorry that all of us had to lose Justin this way but it was a great loss. God truly knows what's best and he is in a better place where there are no worries. We are going to miss his beautiful smile at Madison. His friends and teachers are going to miss him dearly. I didn't really know him well but I did speak to him on alot of occassions in the hallways. I know he was wondering who I was. Although he'd never ask me who I was, he'd always speak and that's how I knew he was a nice person. But now he is in a happier place because GOD wanted him back. It was his turn. We'll all have a turn. He was ready. I will keep you in my prayers and be strong for Justin because he wouldn't want to see us in grief and stress and crying. Be strong Eureka. Hang in there. Your friends are here for you. We love you Justin!!!!!!!! We miss you!!-Shamara
