Reader remembers a kind soul

I went to Sterling elemetary with Tommy Ellison.

Although that was a few years ago, I still remember him being one of the only nice kids to a geek like me at the school!

I will always remember Tommy as that sweet smiling boy who always had a kind word for everyone! His smile lit up a room because it was always genuine. You always had to smile too!

I have not been in touch that often with Tommy and his family since I moved back from Anchorage, but the memory of his kindness will be with me always.

I just wanted to say to his parents that I am very sorry for their loss and the struggle they must have gone through watching this wonderful human being suffering for so long. I am so sorry. I also want to thank them for bringing such a sweet and considerate person into this world and he will be watching over all of us in heaven.

Tommy, I am so glad that you are through suffering. Take care.
