I had the pleasure of driving the school bus that Vasil rode on for about three years. I came to know this kind hearted young man and truly admired him. He was funny, outgoing, and could try my patience better than anyone. We got along quite well. My heart breaks for you all, but please know I will think of him fondly and remember the tremendous amount of laughter we shared.
My sincere condolences for your family and friends 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
My son and Vasil were in the same class at Churchville-Chili Central School. They both had the same teacher at least one year in elementary school. My husband chaperoned a school trip to Stokoe’s and Vasil was assigned to his group of students. As my son remembers it, they got lost in the corn maze and were the last group to get back to the buses for departure. My husband enjoyed Vasil. He described him as high energy, amusing, and full of spirit and spunk. We were extremely sad to hear of Vasil’s passing. Our hearts ache for your family. Боже, благослови вас
Me and Vasil were friends. He truly was a giant ball of sunshine. Whenever I was sad Vas was there to help me through it. Vas would say to me “You can tell me anything, I have a lot of good advice, you know where to go.” That might’ve been the most truthful thing he’s ever said because he truly was always giving advice and I could tell him anything. I miss him everyday, there will never be a day where I don’t. Vasil you were truly loved by me, your family, and your friends. I truly hope to see you up there when it’s my time. My heart goes out to the family of Vasil and to the friends who are sharing this loss with us. I pray for these hard times to lift us up in unity while we mourn the loss of the sweetest soul I’ve thankfully gotten the blessing to know. I love you buddy, fly high. You will always be with me, with your family, and with your friends. 🕊️❤️❤️
I can’t believe it’s been 2 months without you bug. Not a single day goes by where i don’t miss you, where i don’t text you, call you, where you don’t run through my mind. Vasil was someone very special to me, he was one of my best friends and so much more. He was truly a ball of sunshine, he was so funny, so kind, he was so charming and uplifting. and he always meant well. Whenever i was sad i would always go to Vasil because he was always there for me and he made himself feel like a safe space, and he always made me feel heard. I would text him everyday to tell him what was going on and to tell him my problems, and i still do, not a single day goes by where i don’t text him. I never liked being home so he would always offer up his house as a place to stay, or invite me to go somewhere. His presence wasn’t taken for granted, and his absence will never be ignored. To say that I wish I could see his notification pop up on my lock screen again would be an understatement because every time i saw his notification my face would light up and my entire mood would change. I miss my friend, and we all do. He lived his life to the fullest because of all his “side quests” and all of mine and his adventures, because even he knew that it would come to an end one day, if only we knew it was so soon. Its good to know that had so, so many amazing experiences in his life. But there’s so many things that i would have said, or would have done if i knew he would have been gone so soon, there’s so many thing we all would have said or done, with him if we knew he would have been gone so soon. Hopefully there’s a “liqa sto” up in heaven, because he was always on his way there lol. I miss him everyday more than anything, there will never be a day where i don’t. I’m so glad that i got to have the pleasure of knowing him, and have so many amazing experiences with him. I’m so glad that i chose him as my best friend, my lover, my person i went to for anything and everything. He was truly the sweetest soul i ever got the blessing to meet and know. he always told me to look for him in the sky and i do, he makes the sky look beautiful. I cant wait to see him up there when its my time. my whole heart goes out to his lovely family, all his amazing friends, and all of our friends who are mourning this loss as well. You will always have a very special place in my heart, you will always be with me, your family, and with your friends. I love you so much bug, fly high.
