I love you Jimel. ❤ we are really going to miss that deep voice and big smile of yours. No life is in vein. I have the best memories of you when you were bearly 6 years old, and full of fun.
I remember the first day Jimel walked into my class at AHS. Such a manner-able kid with a contagious smile. You will be missed!
I was so sad to learn today that Jimel had passed away over summer break. He was such a kind soul. Even when he wasn’t sure of himself, he would try when I asked him because he wanted to be successful. He loved his mom very much and spoke fondly and respectfully of her often. He wanted so badly to make her proud of him. He touched many of us with his intelligence and humor, and his kind heart. He will be missed . Rest in Peace, Jimel. My condolences to his family . Sending sympathy and prayers your way.
