My heart goes out to his family. Our deepest condolences to your family. No parent should have to lose a child this way. As parents, you have done nothing but give all that you have so that your child grows up healthy, educated, confident, successful, and leads a normal life....and here you have to endure this horrific tragedy that has forsaken your family. May God give you peace and the strength to go on. These are very difficult times and no one can understand the pain that you are going through. Cherish the wonderful moments you had with him. Find the courage and strength to continue for him. His memories should live on in your hearts. Smile for the sake of your heart and health. Recollect his achievements and let him shine through what he left behind for you to hold on to. You did your part as parents. What happens is this crazy world of ours isbeyond our control and grasp. We are only left with the "what-ifs". Take a deep breath and hug one another in your family and remember the way James touched your hearts. Smile and laugh for him....
I am truly sorry for your loss. As a parent, one understands....Try to stay strong and support one another...

My heart is broken when I saw James' name in the list. We just talked last Thursday night about James and UCSB. Our deepest condolences for your loss. We will pray for your family at this difficult moment.

My heart is crying along with my eyes, my child, to see your young vibrant life taken away from you so suddenly. I have a son your age who is in college too. And my heart breaks for your parents. Rest in peace, lovely son.

Lynbrook High. The one school TJ could never beat. Every single person from your school rocked, and I just know you're no exception. Rest in peace, James. Make heaven as awesome of a place as I know you made our earth.
