Dylan was the nicest funniest most wonderful person I have ever met, and I miss him greatly. In memory of Dylan, today, everyone at Willard school got black fedoras and the teachers call them friendship hats, to remember the kindness and generosity of Dylan.

Dylan was my friend, a close one, someone that's understanding. Although I only met him this year I felt like i knew him longer. Dylan and I were sooooo close we could talk about anything. To his family, I'm so sorry for your loss. I miss Dylan so much school isn't going to be the same without him. He was my first high school friend.
