I worked with Donald in the classroom at Curtis Middle School. He was such a smart kid who asked so many questions (most times just to make you think) and had such an infectious smile. But he always knew how to make someone laugh. I´m so blessed to have gotten to work with him and so heartbroken that I will never get to be invited to a high school graduation, or see him walk the halls and go to 8th grade promotion at the end of the year. He will forever be a Curtis Falcon and in my heart
