In their own languauge, and in their own way, friends of Robert Brazell and Kevin Klink are showing their grief. One Mount Hebron High School student writes, “you and the other boys kept mr b?s history class entertainingg. and ill always remember how sweet you were to yourr friends. rip robby.” “I still can?t believe it … RIP Robby,” writes another.

The death of 18-year-old Brazell and its impact on Howard County students who knew him are well-documented in “In Loving Memory of Robby Brazell,” a Facebook group his friends created, and elsewhere.
