Death at an early age is one of the hardest things to understand. Sorry to hear of your loss, thanks for sharing your story, it made me feel the spirit.Shawn, Hayley and Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10872393205894958477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1187123839042220802.post-79865237574896078222009-08-11T07:59:55.195-07:002009-08-11T07:59:55.195-07:00Thanks for you nice post Jenna!

I probably had it easier than you though, It's been about 4 years since I taught him. He was such a good kid, and the family was such a faithful one that I believe it was impossible to leave the funeral with any negative feelings, just a gratitude that we knew Jeff and a knowledge things would be just fine. Your experience sounds so sad. I am sure the mom was grateful for your influence on her daughter.Jeff Corryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16820842516348286620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1187123839042220802.post-80543472861915272212009-08-06T14:57:38.826-07:002009-08-06T14:57:38.826-07:00Oh so sad.

You mentioned his side hurt before the game and then it got hit...Medically how did he die?Was there something wrong before the game or did the ball just hit the wrong spot. I'm so so sorry for your loss Jeff. I had one of my advanced students pass away my first year teaching, and I was heart broken. She was in the car with her sisters boyfriend (he was taking her to school) little did she know that he had marijuana and alcohol still in his system from the night before....He was racing another car and wrapped that car around a light post, killing her. He survived...spent a lot of time in critical care and then some time in jail. She was such a bright spot in my day,I can't tell you how hard it was to return to school that next day and face her peers (it was a small very close group orf 10) I remember taking roll and completely losing it when I got to her name. We had just finished up our film unit and she had done a scene from "What dreams may come" She played the mother telling her daughter about heaven. Very ironic. I copied it for her mother and they played it at her funeral. Her funeral was the saddest thing ever....especially seeing her mom (single mom) who didn't have the knowledge that we do. Anyways, sorry random tangent, but I just wanted you to know that I empathize and sympathize. Thanks for sharing. I'm so greatful for what we know.Moser Clanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06470345926519216319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1187123839042220802.post-51061654283554712852009-08-06T14:52:13.929-07:002009-08-06T14:52:13.929-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Moser Clanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06470345926519216319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1187123839042220802.post-43306757405437683102009-08-05T15:21:18.709-07:002009-08-05T15:21:18.709-07:00What an amazing tribute, Jenna.
