“He’s been gone from Wallaceburg for a bit… he would do anything for anyone. Really kind, and funny… he always could make you smile if you were down,” she said.
Lindsey, another old friend of Taylor’s who asked us not to publish her last name, said their parents were best friends while they were growing up.
“Our families moved to London together… all in the same house,” she said. “He was sweet, funny and a good guy.”
