Friends remember Booker T Freshman killed in the wreck

Tulsa, Okla.-Booker T. Washington High School Freshman basketball star Donald Laster was one of the eight people who were killed in a frontal collision at the weekend.

He and others went back to Tulsa from a basketball tournament in Kansas, but never made it back.

“A piece of us is missing”: Friends remember Booker T Freshman killed in Wrack

“A piece of us is missing,” said Mikna Travis, one of Donald's friends. “When I heard the first time, I was a kind of rejection. I didn't find it true.”

A mass of Lasten's friends who say that they are more like a family came out together to speak with 2 messages, and said that it was only the right to share vice with the world when you consider the effects that he had left on them.

“He always brought everyone to a smile, although he himself went through a lot, he always made sure that he checked in,” said Travis. “Every time I had my head down, he came and spoke to me, ask me if I am fine, ask me how I was doing. I know that he also did it to many people and checked many people and let a lot of people feel loved.”

The group said it was difficult to believe their new reality that one of their own would not come home.

Travis, who are closest to him as a DJ or Dougie, would like to make sure that trucks are remembered for his heart of gold.

“Donald was a friendly, soft -hearted person,” she said. “He was very godded. He loved his little sister, that was his motivation, she kept him going.”

His friends say that trucks have great dreams of bringing his skills to the professionals on the pitch. Now make yourself a mission to continue his name and number through your own game.

“He meant a lot to me,” said Dontayne Tiger. “I always loved to compete with him. He was always there to pick up someone, no matter what happened, whether there was an argument, a disagreement. He would always have her back, no matter what happens.”

Tiger has shared the court with vice since the sixth grade. Now every game that he plays will be in honor of vice.

“I will continue to honor him, play my best, no matter what the game is, no matter what the score is,” he said. “I will continue to push and fight as he would have wanted it.”

Something his friends kept back was Lastens compassionate nature for those he loved.

“He played a key role in the life of everyone,” said Tiger. “He influenced everyone in any way.”

The make -up of your group, changed forever.

The loss of trucks can be felt in everything they do, but his friends remind him of him wherever they go. You started a mural at school and even saved him a place at the lunch table.
