Great souls like Courtney are born on earth to do greater things…

I remember the first time I met Courtney and Rekha at Sycamore Canyon School in Newbury Park. They had just moved from Indianapolis. Manas (my son) and Courtney became friends instantly and had many play dates at each other’s house. Courtney would bring is Apple laptop and always had a plan to do something new. Over the years I saw him grow into an incredible leader and was a top notch lead attorney in the NPHS Mock Trial program. I always said that one day Courtney will either be a CEO or United States president. While I had not met Courtney since he graduated from NPHS, I thought of him often wondering what he was doing great at any moment. My family and I are in shock and heartbroken. I take comfort in believing that God wanted Courtney for a special purpose and plan He has. Great souls like Courtney are born on earth to do greater things. We will see Courtney again someday doing even greater things. My heartfelt condolences to Rekha, his sister, and brother.
