On this horrible sad day my dear sweet son hung himself in the woods by the river, alone, upset, confused. He was betrayed and beat up by some really horrible people.

almost 1000 people showed up at his viewing. This shows how many lives he touched and how much he was loved.

a big black hole fills out hearts.
