“It was the first year we had returned to the building from HVA. I thought making new friends in high school was going to be a struggle for me, but then came Bodhi. He was one of the first new friends I made that school year and he made me feel welcomed. He would always Crack me up in history class. Bodhi was always this nice and funny guy who you could be yourself around. He was always being positive and putting smiles on other people's faces. May he rest in peace. Love you rascal boy. LLB 🕊”

“Man I remember I met Bodhi for real in 5th grade. I just moved to the school district my fourth grade year. Bodhi was always a great friend and he could always make you laugh no matter the situation. I wish I could’ve helped Bodhi. I would’ve done anything if I even knew a slither of what he was going through. I was just with him a few hours before he passed. We were just laughing and joking. He will forever be missed.. Long Live Bodhi.”

“Being Bodhi's manager was and absolute pleasure. When he first started he was definitely a handful but it was an absolute joy to watch him grow throughout his time at Chick-Fil-A. I reached out to Bodhi many times and I wish I could've done more for him given his struggles that he was facing. He always knew how to make his team smile, despite the circumstances. He was a true example of what it means to be a positive influence within the workforce. I know that he will be deeply missed by everyone”

“I was Bodhi’s friend since 6th and the brother of autumn. He was a very kind and funny person. Never wanted to hurt anyone intentionally. But now he is in heaven and with us in our hearts. But seriously. Bodhi was an incredible person. He told funny jokes and wouldn’t have a single regret. He always made people laugh, that’s his strong suit. The amount of time we spend together felt like a life time but I wish his life had more time. -Brayden”

Around this time last year I started working at chick-fil-a, and I felt like an outsider. But Bodhi always made and effort to include me and never failed to help me feel less alone. I wish he could know how much he meant to everyone around him, Rest in peace Bodhi<33”
