Who was it?

OMG... I am really sorry... Do you have any idea what in the world happened?

 

[smcdem]

It was a seizure at first, which eventually gave him a heart attack. He was 100% healthy... And this happened like at around 6 6:30.

If he had a heart attack at that age, there must have been a pre-existing condition of some form. Sorry about your friend, SMC - it's shocking when someone so young dies suddenly like that.

Sorry to hear smc. it must be terrible for his family.

I was going by there last night at that time and I was wondering what an ambulance was doing at GMHS. My sincere condolences at this tragedy and I will definitely keep his family in my prayers.

I had to read the awful news from the school today. My daughter is a mess. Victor was a nice kid, it's so awful to see this happen.

 

[JabbaJawz]

Yes, it's horrible. His parents were there too from what I understand. I guess it was a blessing they were there in his last moments, but what a horrible way to watch your young son die - especially so unexpectedly.

I'm very sorry to hear about Victor. The poor parents. How awful. I will keep his friends and family in my prayers.

His parents were not there according to the article in the Post. The game apparently was played earlier than expected. Such a sad thing.

I was talking to the Assistant Coach mr. Lagrant yesterday, who said that it happened during the pre-game warm ups.

Of course, the facts are always sketchy when the News first breaks.
