What famous person's, or fictional character's, death hit you the hardest or most affected you? Explain your "connection" to the figure or character. Why will that death always stick with you?
The death of a famous person that affected me the most I would have to say is Juice WRLD. This affected me because I was a fan of his and really enjoyed his music. His death was a tragedy because he was so young and the cause of his death. There was a slight controversy that revolved around his death, which ultimately I believe was a result of his fans in denial. Juice WLRD had tweeted "My goal is to get overly famous, shine for a couple years..then fake my death," back in 2017. Then in one his popular songs "Legends" he says the lyrics, "What's the 27 club? We ain't making it past 21." His cause of death also bears similarity to a popular tik tok trend with his song "Lucid Dreams". In this trend the music would glitch and the tik tok user would have a "seizure". I obviously do not believe that he is alive, however I think that this just gives fans a sense of hope. This death will stick with me because he was the first celebrity who died that I actually was interested in.
A famous person's death that had really affected me is probably Kobi Bryant. Because he had retired to spend time with family and have a calm normal life. But then he died in a helicopter crash with one of his daughters. Leaving his wife alone with three other girls. I connect with Kobi because I think family is super important like he did. This death affected me because it shows that don't take life for granted you never know when your going to die.
Cameron Boyce death has affected me and hit me the hardest the most out of any famous person. His death has affected me the most because I grew up watching him play the character Luke in the show Jessie. My connection to this character is very strong. He helped me through tough times and whenever I would see him on the show it would make me laugh. He did this because his character was meant to be a comical one. His death will stick with me because it shows how short lived a life can be and how you should make the most of it. -Skylar Pachtinger
If I would have to say that the famous person's death that affected me the most would have to be Luke Perry. He was Archie's dad in the TV show Riverdale. This affected me because no one will be able to play Fred Andrews as well as he can. My connection to him was because my mom and I used to watch Riverdale together whenever new seasons come out. It makes me sad to know I'll never be able to watch Luke Perry play Archie's dad again. This death will always stay with me because it made me realize how short life really is.
The most impactful famous person’s death for me would be the death of Juice Wrld. Jarad Higgins, known through his stage name of Juice Wrld, died in December of 2019 just a week after his 21st birthday. He was a young rapper, singer, and songwriter that had just begun his climb to the top. His death is probably one of the most impactful famous person’s death on my life because I connected with many of his songs and created everlasting memories with them. Some of his songs deal with the struggles of being a young adult and experiencing the real world while others reflect on his positive experiences in life. I have been able to personally connect with many songs and used them to help overcome some struggles I have faced. I have also created memories with friends while listening to his songs that I won’t forget. Juice Wrld’s death will always stick with me because of my connection to his lyrics during my time in high school.
The death of Cameron Boyce is a celebrity death that hit me the most. Cameron Boyce was a Disney star. He rose to fame on the Disney series Jessie. He played the rebellious, trouble making boy of the Ross Family. After the show he easily became a key face for Disney. He was cast for the Descendents movie series as the son of Cruella De Vil. He was a child acting prodigy landing roles in movies when he was only 9 years old. He tragically died on July 6, 2019 from a seizure triggered by an ongoing medical condition. He died less than a month from the release of the third Descendants movie. The death of Cameron Boyce took a toll on me because Jessie was one of my favorite shows when I was younger, and it is just a shame he died when he had his whole life ahead of him. Cameron Boyce died when he was only 20 years old. Davis Manternach
Kobe Bryant is a famous person that has affected me just recently. My “connection” to Kobe is that I love basketball. I might not be as good as he was, but I still enjoy playing. Kobe retired from basketball to spend more time with his family. He was only 41 years old and had so much life ahead of him. His daughter especially had her whole life ahead of her. She would have been a great basketball player probably in college and the pros. His death is one that will always stick with me. It made me realize that you need to live your life each day to the fullest because you never know when it will be your last day on earth.
I think the fictional character whose death affected me the most would be Severus Snape from the Harry Potter book and film series. I’ve only seen the movies, but the death still kind of stuck with me. I saw the movie when I was younger, and his character was so unique and different than the rest. Everyone in my family, aside from me for some reason, despised his character. I always thought it was cool how he could hide his emotions, the actor’s performance outstanding, but I could still recognize this distinct look of care in his eyes whenever he looked at Harry Potter. Then, when he was finally killed off his death scene is what brought tears to everyone except me. I was upset but I respected the artistic vision more. Snape was a genius character, the way that he brought on such a turn around astounded me. To see everyone hate him for most of the movies and then completely change their minds in his last few seconds of life. I think his death scene and the scene when Harry Potter infiltrates Hogwarts to tell Snape that he didn’t deserve Dumbledore’s spot were absolutely genius. The way that Snape deflected the attacks into Voldemort’s minions was a great little detail to show his hidden agenda to protect Harry Potter from the beginning. His death has always stuck with me because of his jaded attitude and loyalty to a specific cause. Colson Cruciani
A death that affected me the most was when Snape died in Harry Potter. This death effected me the most because he was a very deep and confusing character. I didn't know if I was supposed to love or hate him. He would do things that would at first thought seem wrong. But after he died I realized he did everything for a reason. Everything he did was to help others but most importantly Harry . I didn't know it at first but he loved Harry and his mother. That is why I think his death hit the hardest because I thought of him as a bad guy until after his death when I realized he wasn't.- Benjamin Fransen

The fictional characters death that hit me the hardest was when Dumbledore died from the Harry Potter book series. My connection to Dumbledore was that I read the series and he was my favorite character of all time. This death will stick with me because the lessons learned from Dumbledore are some of the best lessons to learn like that we should dream our dreams, but then we have to live them and achieve them.

The celebrity who's death shocked me the most would have to be rapper Xxxtentacions death his real name was Jahseh Dwayne Ricardo Onfroy. His death shocked me the most because he was a very kind and wise person who used his music to bring attention to mental health. His death was devastating because he was yet another young and beautiful minded person that was taken to soon at a very young age by the streets. His death brought attention to all the criminal activity and the shootings and gang violence. I think it promoted awareness of the violence that needs to be stopped and prevented. His death will stick with me because people need to know about the violence. We have the same violence in the streets in the cities so close to home. No one is really aware of the violence in the streets but i'm very aware of the violence that goes on that's why i can connect to it and can relate to it.
