The memory of Tyre Nichols as someone with a passion for skateboarding lives on through his family, friends and now, through the people online amplifying and sharing a video of him “living his best life.”
told Insider“I saw that and I was like, ‘wow, this is something that we’ve all had,’” Williams told the outlet. “We’ve had moments where we enjoyed the sunset, or where we were doing something that made us happy, whether it’s cutting some wood or gardening or doing something that may be unremarkable in the greater scheme of life, but it was remarkable in that it gave us peace. I felt like that is that was such a beautiful thing to capture and share.
“I just think about the fact that I’ll never see my son again. I’ll never see that smile again. He’ll never see his son grow up,” Wells told Angelina Paxton, a childhood friend of Nichols, said his death made her lose her faith in"life and humanity." “Bad things like this don’t happen to good people in my head," she said."It has made me afraid of the world now.”
