When I first met Roman in World Geography I could feel something special coming off of him. I didn’t know it would take this for me to see it though. When he sat next to me I could always see him smile and cracking a joke. His smile was contagious and you could here his laughter all the way down the hall. World Geo class was never dull. He did a number on me. He makes me want to be like him because he was and is amazing. When I was told he got bullied I was in so much shock because I wouldn’t have believed it. It’s what I was told that broke my heart. He prayed for the people who bullied or picked on him. That took my breath away because I wish I could do that. When I first met Ivy my heart broke for her and her family. Yes not everyone knew him but he left a mark on everyone. I know he did for me. He makes me want to be a better person. I do know that he’d want us to come together at this time because that’s what he did. He brought people together. I wish I could have known him longer.
Love,
Aubrey
