Steven, my brother from another mother, I hope you rest easily.
Prayers for all involved. This is the older brother of the two babies my sister is fostering right now. Such a sweet caring young man who loved his siblings very much. RIP sweet angel.
This is some very devasting news
I loved this young man like he was my own brother… I can’t even think of what to say just prayers to his family 
I love you buddy you’re with god now 
watch over us 
Thank u everyone for the good comments he was an amazing young man love u little brother so much wish I could have said I love u and bye
That was my brother damn he went to soon bruh
It didn’t say he was wearing a dark colored shirt just dark jeans. If there were a safe place for him to walk on that road and/or street lights there is a chance he would still be here. This isn’t the first devastating thing to happen on that road and most likely won’t be the last
Prayers going out to the family. This boy was litterally the sweetest thing ever. Im beyond sad but blessed i had the opportunity to know him. R.I. P Honey
Steven was a teenager. RIP Steven you will be forever loved and missed.
Can’t you just call the cell phone carrier to get his name ?
I’m sorry this happened…. Truly truly sorry….
Please, people… If you’re out on foot and it is dark wear LIGHTER colored clothing (reflective is better). Don’t walk IN the road… Once they see you it’s too late.
Sidewalks aren’t the answer as complained about on social media. How about people not walk in the ROAD in the DARK wearing dark CLOTHES.
AGAIN I’m NOT BEING UGLY this was a freak accident I don’t wish it to happen on ANYONE. But PLEASE teach your children how to be SAFE when out after dark.
This includes the part of not walking in the road with dark clothing on.
Praying for the family and friends who lost a loved one.
Also praying for the driver, his family and friends.
May the Holy Spirit comfort all of you.
Prayers going up for this young man’s family.
