Where I live there was a real Walk To Remember from what a reporter said


Hi I am not from Western Pennsylvania but I live here now I have been here for almost 15 years now I moved here for my Dad's job. But I am not going to use real names here, but there was a young man here in high school named Timothey and he found out that he had cancer and he had chemo/radiation and surgeries and then he and that was a few years ago (not sure what year) and then sadly it came back, and then sadly sometime last year he found out that his cancer was terminal and so he decided to propose to his high school sweetheart named Tiffany and she accepted his marriage proposal. And they got married a month later in February of this year and they were both 18 when they got married and theyt were both married for 6 months, then sadly the young man Timothy died this pass weekend at the age of 19.

But if you happen to Google ill Pennsylvania teen marries his high school sweetheart you can read more of the story. But the young man (I did not know him or his wife or their familes, though I work with a few people who knew them from high school) and they said how nice the young man was and he did not complain about his cancer or get upset when times were tough. And how he kept on fighting until the very end. But sadly the young man passed away this weekend. But the young man reminded me ALOT of this movie A Walk To Remember and how Jamie and Landon got married because they knew her time was limited, and the local young man here knew that his time was limited too and he wanted to spend what rest of te life that he had with his love of his life/soul mate Tiffany.

And I never knew/heard about the young man until last year when they talked about the young man on the local news here. But they refered the young man and fiancee and their wedding to the movie Walk To Remember. And after reading the story online about the young man Timothy and his high school sweethearts Tiffany's wedding and stuff about the young man, it makes you realize that life is to short to worry about things that you should not be worrying about. Now the young man is pain free and may he RIP.
