Julius Shoulderblade

I just learned of OJ's passing, and I am heartbroken. I met OJ in fourth grade at Blue Creek. He was always so nice to me and a good friend to my brother Michael. I have so many memories of him cutting up in class, cracking us up with his jokes and antics. He had such a great smile and an infectious laugh. He, Kyle, Darred, and "the Caseys" were always up to something mischievous. He was so smart, a very gifted student and athlete. I'll never forget the his across the court "buzzer beater" winning shot during the basketball game against Trinity Lutheran. He was proud to share his faith in Christ with everyone he met. He loved his friends and family wholly and fiercely. I remember him being so excited about building Hogans, and I remember all the pics of Elijah he shared on Facebook after he was born. He was a very proud Papa. My love and condolences to Kasey, the children, and the Allens. He is loved and greatly missed.
