i remember when i was getting bullied in the hallway. you walked up and told the two guys to leave or else. you walked me to class to make sure i was safe. you told me that everything gets better and that they are jerks. you told me that i was a good person and that to not listen to what they were saying. i think about that everyday. and when i heard about what happened. i thought it was some sick joke but it wasnt. i just wish i could have helped you like you helped me. you will forever be in my heart

Dalton, We were not the closet of friends but you always amazed me with how you could always laugh and be positive. You were so sweet with the type of smile that warmed hearts. I remember in Middle school, I thought no one would remember my name. But then there was you. You said "Hi Miracle", and I was so surprised, but so happy, that I wasn't forgotten. Just like you never will be. In elementary school, you fell on me while running on the track. You said sorry, and kept running like nothing ever happened. That's why we love you, through obstacles, you kept running with your humor, and postivity and we all wish you would've ran alittle longer with us.  We will miss you and your memory will always be running through my, and everyone elses, minds. Rest in Paradise, our golden angel. <3

I first met Dalton 3 years ago, and he has changed my life from day one. He was close to me, one of the few people I actually trusted. Always smiling and having fun. He was very popular and even if people didn't know him personally, they deffinitely knew of him. He was a great guy who just desirved the best. I miss you a lot Dalton! I'm praying for his family and I hope the person who make Dalton take his life feels guilty and ashamed. Rest in Paradise Dalton(: Forever in our hearts!!! July 27, 1998 - December 18, 2013. I'll love you forever and always <3
