Xander was my best friend. We would go out a lot and I would be his partner in crime. And get into trouble together but we had fun. Hearing his death shattered me. May he fly high.

I did not know Xander or anyone in his family. While losing a loved one is difficult, it even more so with such a young person. I pray that Xander's family finds comfort in the memories of Xander. And may this young man rest in eternal peace. ~~Andrea Gries

I've only met Xander a few times at school functions but he was always so polite. My son Luis enjoyed his friendship with him and would often tell me funny conversations they had. We're truly heartbroken for you all and will be keeping you in our prayers.
