I know the father of this young. And I got the pleasure of meeting this child. He was always very sweet and polite. God please be with both families in this time of need!!!

I have walked the sidewalks of Bentley Oaks daily for almost 5 years, and Sunday Morning as I walked past this young boys home, I did not know what had occurred. I learned about it at church from a fellow neighbor, and I was heartsick. I cannot tell you how many times I have seen this young boy on his bike, but always on the street where he lived. He was always very polite and spoke when I said hello, always respectful of an elderly neighbor. I cannot find the words to express the sadness I feel for his family. I can only hope that the family will find the strength to endure this and move forward. I know they are a family of faith, and I pray that will sustain them. I want them to know that everyone in this neighborhood has been deeply touched by this tragedy and wishes them peace and comfort.

I am so so sorry for this tragedy. There are no words that can bring your family comfort. Please know that God is aware and loves you all.

Whenever I see kids on bikes my foot AUTOMATICALLY goes to the brake . . . you NEVER know what’s going to happen! I had a near miss when I was that age, going down a hill I couldn’t stop because of loose gravel! They pulled my bike out from being pinned under the car, by the race of God I missed the wheels. My condolence to the families involved in this tragedy!

Perhaps not related to this accident, but could the developer (Mitchel Homes) not complete the last 70 feet of sidewalk so that pedestrians don’t have to walk/ride bikes in the road at this Bentley Oaks entrance?
