He posted: « I met a great young man this year named Tristen. He worked with me and his dad on a podcast we have, and turned out to be smart, sweet, savvy, witty and mature beyond his few years. There were great things ahead for him, but this was not to be.

“The injustice of our short stay on earth rears its ugly head again, we remain speechless. To steal such a pure heart, full of potential, is incomprehensible cruelty. I won’t try. Got his last text for me: ‘I love you man.’ I read it 50 times in 2 days, T, I’m going to read it a lot more. #T (sic) »
