I'm so sorry for your loss. We all walked a tight rope as kids snd teenagers without even realizing it. There but for the grace of God go I. It can all seem so unfair at times.

so glad we went to people's land in the country and drank and made bomb fires back in the late 90's an early 2000's instead of breaking into places and doing tik tok dances.
and the number of deaths driving back from like parties far exceeds any other accidental teenage deaths.

Teens do things that are ill
Advised, we all did.

I’m sorry for your loss… every one of us has done shenanigans, I’m so sad for you and yours that some kids doing teenager stuff ended so badly.

I wish I knew what to tell you to ease your pain but unfortunately nothing will do that at the moment. Kids make dumb mistakes, we have all been there for most of us they don't this level of circumstance. My heart and prayers go out to you buddy.

Praying for your family. Horrible situation but by Gods grace it could have been me when I was young doing incredibly risky things.

We had radio equipment on the roof back in the Y2K era. Several times, I had to climb those 43(#?) levels of stairs when the janky elevator was out of service. It was not fun back then.

I am truly sorry for your loss.

I think most men have at least one "should have died" story from their young and dumb youth.

I definitely did things as a kid that I didn’t deserve to survive. RIP Lil Jacque and prayers to the family

I definitely did.

And moments I look back on and am amazed I didn’t die. Or kill someone. Or destroy my chance at a normal future. Intentionally or not, it was still a distinct possibility for ALL of us.

It’s crazy because Mia was leading the charge so to speak for Trace and his family at the beginning of the week, only to lose her own son at the end of the week. Absolutely insane. I feel so bad for her, she’s one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. Typical south Louisiana creole woman..
