ESPN story about Austin Box

Game day today did a very good job in a story concerning the death of Austin Box.

 

Wow!

 

It was a nice story.

 

I only caught the end, but it seemed very well done.

 

Every once in awhile, the folks at Gameday do some good things....This was one of those times!

 

As a Father....that was pretty hard to take but it was a very good story. Very well done and a good opportunity to talk with your kids about drugs so that situations like this never happen again. Seeing that Austin kept all those letters was just amazing. His Dad has lost his Son but he will at least know how much his Son loved him when those times of loss are a little hard to take.

Austin....You are missed. R.I.P.

God Bless the Box Family

 

Somewhere in all the coverage, I read that Austin called his parents "Mama and Daddy" until the day he died. Love that, what a sweet boy. Breaks my heart all over again, just hate it so much, so unnecessary. RIP, Austin, hope we win it for you tonight.

 

Can the story be found on the www?

 

Here is the link, go to the right side of the screen about half way down at PLAYLIST, it should be the second video listed.
