    I will always miss you Harrison and I have for the last ten years. I wish this never had to happen to you, I wish I was able to see you more, and I regret not seeing you more than anything. You are a beautiful person and I know your soul will always shine down on us. I love you and you will always be extremely missed by all of us.

    Hazing should be punishable by a mandatory 20 years in prison. No exceptions. This was no flag or touch football game. He was scared. He asked others to pray for him Monday morning because he was scared of Hell week. Something is wrong here. Why did one of the fraternity brothers already lawyer up? Why did he have injuries consistant with a beating and kicking? His funeral was beautiful. It made me cry. “I was there to hear your borning cry…”
