Evan, what an unreplacable soul. He was such a thoughful kid. My eyes water up thinking about how he'll never come back. Death's so final, thats why you must make the point to be careful everyday. He's missed very much and he lives in all our hearts to this day. You never know when it'll happen to you...I know Even didnt wake up that day and think he wasnt going to see tomorrow. Let us not look back in anger or forward in fear, but around in awareness. We love ya Ev baby.

Palin great for our country. Obama has too many questionable relationships and what is his change and hope? Liberal socialistic agendas

If anyone is wanting an update on Craig, he is home and doing well. He is close to being the kid who we all know and love. Thank you to everyone who has kept him in your prayers.

Kay - Thank you for the update. Wow, I'm amazed he is in therapy. They said he had a severe head injury and I figured he would never be the same again. Is he the same person you used to know?

i just saw craig the other day. he was sleeping when i got there. he's doing the best he can to recover and has already started therapy a few days ago. this is the first i have seen my friend since the accident and it made me feel SO much better just to see him. i go to school with him and it's so hard not to see him in class. i've known both of the boys since we were little, and it makes me sick that some of you can be so cold hearted. i'm sure if you lost a loved one you wouldn't want anyone one critsizing. my friends made a mistake, one that many have made. some are just lucky and live throught it. so stop thinking you know everything and let us have peace. we will never see evan again and the last thing we need is someone telling us who's fault is was or "how stupid" they were that night. you didn't know evan, and you don't know craig, so please stop acting like you have the right to put in your opinion... unless it's good, i don't think anyone needs to hear it.

I agree with Amy, everyone has enough pain and grief without anybody adding insult to injury. I wish I knew how the boy who was injured is doing. The news has not reported on his condition. I just cannot get him out of my thoughts. If anybody knows him or has an updates on his condition, would you be so kind to let me know? Thank you.

I am disgusted by some of the comments left. How dare you say such ignorant statements!! Everyone has enough pain and grief, STOP being cold.especially because your ovbiously not deeling with the aftermath. And stop blaming the supplier! Teens can get alcolhol where-ever whenever, its a choice. These boys were amazing people and will be deeply missed. Thoughts and prayers to the families, and friends. And may craig come out healthy. Please take this as a lesson to yourselves, dont drink and drive.

There is a full investigation of this accident and the truth will come out. However, instead of blaming people everyone should learn from this experience. Our sons were in daycare together and grew up together. Both D20 and D11 students are affected as well. This was a tragic incident that will affect friends, family and community forever. Thoughts and prayers for all!

I drive by the accident site everyday and can see where the skid marks that their car left are. The part of the road where they crashed is after a couple of curves. I have two teenage sons and my heart goes out to both Evan and Craig and their families.

my heart goes out to the families of these 2 kids. i've been 18, drunk and behind the wheel. idk why i'm still here. i'm sorry this happened to evan. wake up kids!!!! we're either killing or being killed! thats the truth! WE'VE GOT TO STAND FOR SOMETHING OR WE'LL FALL FOR ANYTHING!

ha.. i definitely think that kids need to be responsible for their actions. so they should be charged for their mistakes. but i'm also saying that the person who bought the alcohol should also be charged heavily. in fact, i think teens are getting away with things way to easily these days. But anyways, has there been any updats on the driver???

WTF, "I believe the people who supplied the alcohol need to be accountable..." That is scary that someone that young should say that. Does this mean that 18-year-olds should have no responsability for their actions? sorry to be blunt, but this country is screwed if that is the way things are going.

I’m about the same age as these boys and I believe the people who supplied the alcohol need to be accountable. Kids would come to school bragging about how drunk they were last night or how there friend passed out drunk. Many times there parents are even home when this happens. Come on. I just hope more people will learn from this, even though it is still happening after similar incidences few years ago.

People should really have more sympanthy to those that are deeply affected by this tragedy. The facts are underage drinking is a crime, so is driving under the influence. One can not put full blame on the parents saying more deceplined needed, maybe the parents were too strict? (hmm)maybe this was a first time for drinking on the kids part? Where did they get the alcohol? The ones that provided it should be held just as accountable as the driver. Just somehting to think about. My prayers are for strength and peace for those deeply touched by this tragedy.
