Drew's loss has saddened everyone at Palmetto Academy. Drew was a fantastic young man with a big heart. My prayers go out to Drew's family in this time of saddness. May God give Becky and her family the strength to endure this grief. Hold on to your lovely memories of Drew! I will always remember that handsome young man, "my baby", who greeted me every morning with that beautiful smile. May Drew's name be eternal. Drew will truly be missed.
