Ever since hearing the news, I just can’t help but to think of the good times and memories made over the 7 years I had known Trevor. Whenever I’d come over, whether it’d just be me, him and John, or their New Jersey friends included, we’d normally be watching First Take, watching or playing sports or play video games. I also would always enjoy the flag football games at the military base during the NFL season, where me, Trevor, John and their dad would go and have a good time competing in a sport we all loved. The little things such as car rides and just sitting around and talking all were things I enjoyed and won’t forget. All good times that were always filled with great laughter. All of the times mentioned above were all great and fun memories I will never forget and will forever cherish. But one specific memory continues to stick in my brain, and it was one of the weeks we all went to the military base to play flag football. But this time, we didn’t have school the next day, so once we got done, we all went back to their dad’s house and watched the weekly Thursday Night Football game. I remember all of us sitting there and just having a good time, enjoying watching a sport we all loved and cracking jokes in the process, about both the game and life in general. After the game was over, we all went upstairs and played MLB The Show for a couple of hours and the clock read about 1:00 AM, so their dad figured it was late enough and he should take us all home. The first stop their dad made was at John and Trevor’s house, and when we got there, instead of them getting out, we all continued to talk. I remember multiple times John, Trevor and their dad were about to end the conversation, but they never did, we all just continued to talk. The conversations were either debating about different things in sports, or just laughing at anything. Then once their dad read the rap song he read, John and Trevor laughed and made fun of it. We eventually finished up and both John and Trevor left, their dad dropped me off. I got out of the car and clicked on my phone screen to see the clock read past 5:00 AM. I was shocked we spent 4+ hours in the car just talking, but enjoyed every second.
RIP and happy 21st birthday Trevor. Have fun up there today and everyday.
