I remember this like it was yesterday. I just moved here from Texas and I was going to school with Randy. This shook the the very foundation of Central Park. I remember Wilson picking Randy up after school sometimes and how he looked up to Wilson. 16 is such a young age. May you always and forever RIP. Love ya Randy!

I will never forget that day as long as I live. I saw Wilson on my way to homeroom that morning. He always stood outside his homeroom every morning and as I walked by he winked at me and said "hey beauty". That was the last time I saw him. I was in Mr. Chamberlain's class waiting to go to lunch and we all realized the bell hadn't rang. Something told me something bad was going on. Then a girl came in and suddenly it was out. I remember running to the bathroom and throwing up. I went to the office and called my mom who came to get me. I stayed in touch with Wilson's mom for a few years after but then I got married and moved away. I've always carried the love I had for Wilson in my heart and that will never leave me. I look forward to the day I can see him again.
