I was lucky enough to be placed into the same Spanish class as Trevor in 2019-2020. Spanish didn't always come easily for Trevor, but it was something that he worked tirelessly at. Where other people might get discouraged, he came to class with an unrelenting positive attitude, well-timed jokes, and of course tons of coffee. When we were doing a unit on urban legends, Trevor wrote a hilarious tale of the mythical "el gringoro" who haunted Parque Lleras in his shorts and flip flops, paying more attention to his phone than his surroundings, with a pretentious blend of coffee in hand. In case it wasn't clear where he got his inspiration, he attached this photo to his story. The Middle School workroom hasn't felt the same this year without his smiles and jokes, and his unassuming yet firm advocacy during team leader meetings has been sorely missed.
