Corey Donald II

Age 17

Jacksonville, Florida

He had just started barber school

He had just started barber school and was already cutting hair on the side to make extra money.

        

He never got the chance to graduate. Corey Donald II, 17, was shot repeatedly and killed Dec. 5, 2018, in a car in the Edgewood Manor neighborhood in northwest Jacksonville, Florida. The weekend after his death, family and friends flooded the pews of his local church, saying goodbye to him and his big dreams.
