From Max’s Dad:
That evening I had baseball practice and while I sat in a car with two other teammates waiting for a field to clear, the kid I was sitting next to in the back seat cracked a bad joke about the shooting and the kid in the front seat, lets call him John, turned and sternly said at 9 years old to us “Its not funny!”. He was right. It wasnt funny.
I remember my Dad and my coach saying aloud, “I dont think he’s going to make it”. That crushed me. Dad, please, dont say that. I continued to pray while I stood out at first base taking grounders. Please God, no. Dont take him.
