I found out some very interesting and very sad news yestuday.
A guy named Joe who is a couple of my classes has passed away on May 27. He was a Kern River with his older brother and one of his best friends, Marcus. They were playing on a rope over the water. Joe was playing on it when he's feet slipped and smacked his head into the rock edge. He passed out and fell into the river.
His older brother jumped into the river to save his younger brother. But the current was to fast and it carried Joe away. Marcus and the older brother watched in horror.
He was found this morning on May 28. No longer with the living. He died in water...something he was used to being in. He was a swimmer and yet it managed to take him out.
He was loved by so many people.
I went to a birthday party and saw on of Joe's other best friends. Bryan is always happy, joking, never down. But today my heart hurt painfully when I saw him sitting in the chair, his head down as if he was going to cry any moment. So his mother took him home.
Joe had such a bright future. He already had a scholar ship! He had good grades! He was so friendly!
I remember this one time. In my English class...no one ever really liked me in that class. I dropped all of my papers and they went all over the place. Joe...he helped me! He smiled at me and helped gather my papers.
I ask god why?! Why a sweet kid like Joe?!
Thank you so much Joe for helping me that one time. For giving me such a caring smile....
Rest In Peace my friend....
