I had the pleasure of knowing Jackson, as I worked as an aid in his 5th grade classroom. I can not say enough positive things about Jackson. He was kind, polite, an awesome friend, loved fishing and had an amazing smile! To his family, I am sorry for your tremendous loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Your loss is incomprehensible. I'm praying for you.

Emma Cline-D’Agostino from Honeoye Falls, NY on Sep. 2, 2025

Mumby was a student that brought the most light, love, and energy into the room. Every study hall and track practice was the most enjoyable with his sense of humor and bubbly personality. There are students that make working at the school a little more worth it than it already is and he was one of them. I couldn’t thank him enough for reigniting the spark that is the love for working with students.
