He went to weselyn and was an accounting major and graduated in 94-95, then he worked at State farm for a few years then he went into the service. I dont know these to be facts just what I saw on the cnn website and what a coworker told me who knew him.

that's how I heard it too. he was either in stacey's class or one year behind her. she didn't know him though.

nonetheless, a bigger man than all of us and the world was better having him around, but will be better off still for his sacrifice.
