To the Clanton and Walker family,
I would like to express my sincere condolences. I had Malik as a student in 8th grade Civics class. Malik was one of the best students I had. Malik was a straight A student, very mannerable, and his smile and personality lit up the room. I am so sorry this happened. I pray that God strengthens and comforts your family in your time of bereavement. Just know that Malik made a profound impact on me as a teacher, and I will never forget him.
