I'm so sorry to hear of Oscar's passing! I always enjoyed his optimism and crossing paths with him during his time at WNMS. He was such a neat kid and will definitely be missed!

I am so sorry to hear about Oscar's death. I work at the library in Cromwell, and although we didn't see too much of him recently, he came in often when he was younger and was a courteous, friendly and polite young man with an impressive ability to relate to others. He will be missed.

I got to know Oscar at WN's after school program. He was always so full of energy and was always there to help everyone else. He always brightened up the room and often shared his writings with us. I am so grateful that I got to know him and am so sad that he left his friends and family so soon. Thoughts and prayers to all who loved him.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I remember my first year teaching at the high school, Oscar and another student followed me to my room one time. They talked and talked asking me a million questions from did I have snacks to what did I teach. I thought to myself who are these crazy boys???? They made me laugh and brightened my day. I remember Oscar as being a fun, outgoing and beyond kind young man. I am so very, very sorry for your loss. I send prayers out that the Lord may comfort and wrap his loving arms around you all.
Mrs. Hammel and family WNHS F. Skills.
