My heart is broken. This, I do not understand. I will pray for his parents, family, and friends, that they may find some solace and comfort in their suffering.
And I mourn for the loss of carefree childhood freedom. My friends and I went everywhere, on bicycles, on foot, on horseback, or in a canoe on a river, without a second thought. We were only told "be in by dark."
