Long Live Zy

Not everybody knew Zyqueire but everybody felt something when this tragedy occurred.

We honor him by remembering him. Long live Zy.

"Zy sat next to me in Chemistry and had me laughing almost every day because of how easy it was to get along with him. We would laugh at Mr. Waggs' jokes because of how corny but somehow still funny they were. We went back and forth about who's better in Clash of Clans and Clash Royale. Zy also talked a lot about Fortnite which he was really good at. But our favorite topic was football. Zy played and wanted to still play for the team but stopped because he wanted to focus on school. He planned to play next year but sadly can't now. RIP Zy the GOAT."

"Zyqueire wasn't the best student. He told me himself. But he was a good person. He text me one night asked me to help him understand our English assignment. And when we were done he told me 'I wanna do better in school. I wanna get out of Philly and make something of myself.' And he did. He started doing homework and paying attention in class. And just as he started to improve, he's gone. He was taken too soon and will be missed. #LLZY #FlyHigh #RIP"

Out of everything, the best thing Zyquiere ever said to me was "you not low". I did something dumb and tried to play it off, "you not low". I was being weird, "you not low". Whenever I needed to be checked, "you not low". The realest man at E&S. Never backed down on beef, if you had a problem with him, you'd solve it. #AKingLivesOn
