Conor O Neill Good morning. Um, Gerius was on the Kekambas baseball team that I coach. Honestly he, uh, he was too young to play. But he wanted to be a part of the team so badly, I couldn't say no. He had a great smile too though I'm not telling anything you don't know. He was a really tough guy. Just a boy who really, uh, wanted to be around his older brother. The other day we played a really important game against a good team. And two outs in the last inning, I had no choice but to let Gerius bat. He was fearless as he stepped up to the plate. I was terrified for him. With two strikes and our hopes dingiling, he hit a shot down the first base line. We won the game. And watching him raise his arms in triumph as he ran to first base, I swear I was lifted in that moment to a better place. I swear he, uh, he lifted the world in that moment. He made me a better person, even if just for that moment. I am, uh, forever grateful to Gerius for that.
