Life Taken Away Too Soon

Early morning, Mario Hornsby (19), a senior and basketball captain at Central High School in Massachusetts, was gunned down at 73 Maynard Street in Springfield. Hornsby was an innocent victim caught in the cross fire and suffered a bullet to the back.

He was set to graduate from high school in less than a month.

Mario...I never told you when you were here with me next to me shaking hands in warm ups getting ready for games together...But I admire you with everything in my heart, as a person as a friend and as someone I looked up to. To still think that your not hear I cry every time because why is it you why not me you had everything in front of you everything and now what happens your future was so bright and long and someone took it from you. Its not right you deserve and worked to be here and I would do anything to get you back here Mario I LOVE YOU.

Mario: It's still surreal to me that you are gone. I know and believe in my heart that God took you off this earth for a reason. Of course we as humans don't understand why or what that reason was but we all know that you're in a better place. Cousin Sckeet(er) It still hurts that you are no longer with us in person, but knowing you're in a better place and being with us in our hearts makes it bearable for me. I love you and I miss you (too much). Save the rest of us a seat in heaven (next to yours).
Love Always,
Your Cousin, Kaprice

Can't Wait to see you again

I still can't believe ur realli gone. It just doesn't seem to be true, As I drive pass Oak Groove just about everyday just to say hi I still can't swallow the feeling that remains. It seems as if you just left for vacation or left early to college. Your mom and dad has been the strongest thru all of this. And ur friends they still come around. Everything ur friends and family do we do it for you. And ur brother he looks just like you. Its crazii. Man, i wish I could see u again, but until then watch over me, our family and friends, aight!

We will never understand why these senseless acts of violence happen which end in the death of innocent people. It's sad that Mario was taken from you so soon, so young, and with so much going for him. I pray for you all in Massachusetts, especially his family and closest friends. God be with you!
