Jesse Merkel, the father of eight-year-old Fletcher who was tragically killed during a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School on Wednesday, delivered a heartfelt family statement outside the targeted church.
Jesse remembered his son as a boy who was full of love and enjoyed fishing, cooking, and sports.
With tears, Mr. Merkel expressed their deep loss, emphasizing that they would never be able to hold, talk to, play with, or watch their son grow into the amazing person he was destined to become.
