Forever Remembered

Our wonderful, funny, unique, loving son took his life on Dec 2, 2017. He suffered so much for so long and now is at peace.  He was only 19 years old, but we are comforted by the fact that was able to experience more in his 19 years than a lot of people do in 80.   He had parents who loved him deeply, he had a younger brother who was his constant sidekick, he found love and spent 2 years with a wonderful girl, he traveled the world, he had peers who looked up to and admired him, he had adults (teachers, boss) who deeply admired him and spoke very highly of him, he was successful at everything he did - academically gifted, genius level intelligence, kind, helpful, compassionate.  He had a wonderful sense of humor and loved pulling pranks - even his senior picture in baseball gear was a prank, he hated baseball and had never played or watched!  He was a math genius, and we have a clear memory of him telling my why prime numbers were so great - he lived 19 years, 5 months, 7 days - all prime numbers. We will be grateful every day that we had him in our lives, and we will miss him every day for the rest of our lives.
