Although he didn’t know David personally, Charles was extremely moved, saddened and haunted by David’s death. “I have been on both sides of bullying – being bullied myself when I started a new school; and joining in on bullying and not taking a stand for what is right which gave me huge shame. Both experiences made a huge mark on me, and I now want to do the right thing every time. I was impressed with David’s brother’s who took something tragic to do something good and propel change in our state. The day I took donations for David’s law I made over $300, and I was able to educate a lot of people on David’s Legacy Foundation and David’s Law.
