Tioga Central School District mourns the sudden death of senior Mason Booser, who died following a motorbike accident on Sunday, May 31. Mason was 18, with plans to join the Marine Corps after graduating in the coming weeks. <\/p>\n

High School Counselor Leanne Schneider said Mason \u201cwould do anything to help anyone; he would want to make a difference in people\u2019s lives.\u201d<\/p>\n

On May 31, 18-year-old Mason Booser died in a motorbike accident. A vigil was held that evening to remember and honor him. Provided photo.<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201cHe had so much energy and always gave his full,\u201d friend and classmate Dylan Hartman said. \u201cThere wasn\u2019t a day I saw Mason not try his hardest.\u201d<\/p>\n

He is remembered at the school through his performances on the baseball field, football field and the wrestling mat, as well as achieving honor roll. <\/p>\n

\u201cAbove and beyond all of that,\u201d High School Principal Joshua Roe said, \u201cMason was a kind individual without a mean bone in his body.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mason was remembered for his kind-hearted smile and willingness to help people. Roe said Mason seemed to be able to mesh with any peer group while in school and was able to speak to all students with kindness and compassion. <\/p>\n

\u201cA future in the Marine Corps would suit him,\u201d Schneider and Roe said. <\/p>\n

\u201cHe would be helping people and seeing the world,\u201d Roe continued, adding, \u201cHe was looking forward to the experience and it would\u2019ve been good for him.\u201d <\/p>\n

Late last Sunday, a vigil was planned for the students and community to say a collective goodbye and to show support within the district. In less than a day volunteers were mobilized to prepare. <\/span><\/p>\n

The groundskeepers prepared the unused field where Mason once played at Tioga Central, students hung signs, and candles and other necessary supplies were donated. At 9 p.m., and after a few words, the community stood silently on the football field remembering Mason. <\/p>\n

Hartman, a friend of Booser, quickly gathered materials to create vinyl #8 stickers in remembrance. Hartman remembers Booser always picking the number 8 for his sport jerseys in remembrance of his late father. The stickers are currently being sold for $5 with all money being given to Booser\u2019s family. You can contact the district at 687-8005, or email to lschneider@tiogacentral.org.<\/p>\n

Tioga Central School District\u2019s crisis management team is standing by for any students who may need to discuss and process the loss. <\/p>\n

\u201cTeenagers shouldn\u2019t have to go through something like this,\u201d Schneider said. \u201cThey need people. They need adults.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
