This goes out to anyone who lives in the Pleasanton area. Billy Russel is dead. He died in a train accident. He threw himself in front of atrain at 2:00 this morning. Now the whole Amador Valley school weeps for him for he was a fellow student. Many people knew him as a all around nice guy and a brillant actor, but his freinds knew even more. He had a special signature smirk that only he could do. He was well remembered for his part as a Nazi in the one act for beginning drama. There's so much about him that I don't have enough room to write it all... To those who knew him or are connected to him in some way, please bring flowers, artwork, poems, and bible verses to the front of Amador Valley High School for a memorial set up to him. He deserves so much and we weep uncontrollably for him. crying here's a poem I wrote about the feeling swirling around the school.
Sea of Tears
A sea of tears,
A pillar of sadness.
The feelings of despair,
Swallow us all.

Some shead many tears,
Some deal with silence,
Others try to comfort others,
hiding their own pain.

These feelings toss us around,
Like a ship lost at sea.
All these emotions directed
to the person we cry for.

"Billy Russel is dead."
That's what the teachers tols us.
Most of us didn't believe what we heard.
Others weeped uncontrollably,
All of us wallow in the pain of loss.

Dear Lord in Heavan,
Billy is in your hands now.
Please take good care of him,
For he's in your hands now.

Help us now in our time
Of utter sadness.
For we all needit greatly,
and are emotionally empty.
Help us move on...
Please if you know him or feel for our pain. Have your avatar mourn for him for atleast a day. Dress in all black, have clouds float over your head, but please show me that some one hears me and knows the pain of loss... crying Well, Until next time, SAYONARA!!!
