The community of Lacey Township was greatly grieved when they heard about the premature death of a boy named Tristan Baluski, who was just 17 years old. The news about his death was hard to take in this week.
His peers described him as someone who shows up to any event before the event starts, and some days, he had to sleep late. Despite his tight schedule, he creates time to crack jokes with his friends, which makes them laugh. His welding tutors at OCVTS named him a go-getter and described his behaviour as someone open to learn new things. He was constantly happy about every project he built.
He worked as a gardener outside the school premises to maintain and remodel the outdoor spaces. He had a passion for snowboarding and spent the weekend riding his motorcycle from place to place. He was always filled with positive energy, which made people love him easily. His death made both his colleagues and tutors at school heartbroken.
The residents nearby were moved towards his death. It was noted that a foundation was named after his name to help other welding students build on his path.
