I knew Drake and his life made my standards for others and myself a little higher. He fit 1 Corithians 4:12 perfectly without a doubt.

To the family,
even though I did not know Drake personally, I do know you can never be prepared for the loss of a loved one.
Please accept these condolences. May you draw comfort from God through prayer and the love of family and friends. Ps. 55:22

Dear Walker family,
We are your neighbors in centenial and not a day goes by since the evening that this horrific accident took place that we dont think of your son and family. Every morning and evening i pass by your home to get to work or anywhere else i might be going and i pray for you. I pray that you can still feel happiness, i pray for peace to find you once again, and that much love is surrounding you at this time. I know this must be terribly hard, infact the worst thing a parent can face but let God see you through this and know your baby boy is safe resting in heaven ..
