I loved this young man. I do believe he is with our Lord Jesus Christ. He had many heartbreaks in his life, but I truly believe he is at peace.

Just learned today of Jenner passing away. I am so saddened there are no words to express it! Truly loved that guy! Whenever he came into my house to see Sean, he always came in and gave me a big hug and said I love you! This is too tragic for words! Sean is in the Army and unreachable at present. Sheila I am devastated. God bless you and Jenner.
