All From all County condolences to all families God are watching over him❤️
My heart felt prayers from a mama to a mama, I am so very sorry for your loss of your beautiful boy, he will always be 17 and #77 and most importantly your baby, death is a thief but this isn't goodbye or farewell IT's until we meet again, sweetheart you raised a well mannered, respectful, kindhearted, and loving young man, if the class was being too loud Mr. Big Coop quickly quieten them down. I was known as Nanny to him and hundreds others and I was honored from your baby boy to call me Nanny whether I gave him snacks or not and gum with a fist bump. May God give you peace and grace during this time, lean on Jesus.
