This is my son. I have no idea who would want to do such a horrible crime. they took away a dad from a daughter,a son from his mother, a brother from his sisters. I just pray to God they catch who did this. my heart is broke into a million pieces. his sisters are trying to cope with this terrible loss and the only question we have is WHY...whoever did this destroyed a family. going to his memorial service was I think the hardest thing I have ever had to do.
