To the Barrington family- I am so sorry for your loss. I can not imagine what you might be going through right now.
I met Ket for the first time my freshmen year of high school, when I was still on the fence about what role I wanted to play in the JROTC. He was one of the first friends I made that wasn’t in my immediate group within the Battalion, and he always greeted me with a smile.
He had a smile that could light up anything. He was like a star; always shining.
I like to think Ket is now walking among the stars himself, lighting up the night sky. Whenever I cast my eyes skywards as the sun sets and the constellations arise, I will think of him.
Rest In Peace, Ket. Fly among angels and doves. Live amongst the stars. I will miss you.
