He rode his bike constantly, and loved “bikelife” and “ride outs.”
Off his bike, he stayed on the move. In the fall, he sported the navy blue and maroon on his school’s football team. In the winter, he dribbled a ball on the basketball court. He was on his school’s boxing team. The Boys’ Latin of Philadelphia Charter School statement praised his “warm heart and gentle smile.”
