Mr.Grace was my coach for the Roosevelt Middle school's track team High Jump..He was very supportive and encouraging..When I was in glendale High school for the team .I was very nervous and he said said to me.."Fabiola,you are a very good girl and keep trying until you get right.." And thanks to him..I made it 3rd place for the high jump of all the tall 7th grade girls.It was a very good experience..Even though I didn't get the first prize.Thank you Mr.Grace.For everything.You will be peaceful at least.

Between sitting together in band for three years playing the saxophones, to having almost all the same classes, to rooming together in Hawaii, to staying over at your house with your family, to hearing about your crazy life time and time again, you were the best my friend, and will be forever. I am proud to have known you, you will never be forgotten.

Words can't express the grief from this loss. He was a great friend to me, and anyone here at CMC that knew him will say that he was easily one of the most smartest, friendliest, funniest kids around. Atul, I will miss you calling me "OH!", along with all the other countless laughs we shared over the past 3 years. Hold Strong Aseem, my heart and prayer is with you and your family.

Keep in mind
  • The Times initially mispelled the name of Michael Hammersley and Beverly Mosley.
  • The coroner's office reported a 26th victim the afternoon of Sept. 15, but a few hours later said the tally was 25.

Chatsworth Metrolink Crash is the Los Angeles Times' database of fatalities from the Sept. 12, 2008, train collision.
