Kendrick chose St. John Bosco. "I was reading and getting familiar with St. John Bosco, and it was really profound that he would've picked him because it's how he lived his life," John said. "He modeled [his life] o¯ the saints." Upon graduation from Notre Dame, Kendrick went to STEM School High- lands Ranch for high school. John remembered being a little worried for his son transitioning from a Catholic school to a non-Catholic one. However, Kendrick remained true to who he was and what he learned at Notre Dame. "He made it a point to seek out and fi nd people that he shared his faith with there," John said of Kendrick's time at STEM. "[But even] those who didn't practice religion, he was still a friend to them and would hang out with them. "I believe he walked his faith, and I was so proud of that." In addition to praying before meals and always being the fi rst to volunteer to altar serve at funeral Masses, Kend- rick joyfully served with his dad in the Knights of Columbus at Notre Dame Parish. He especially loved helping out with the pancake breakfasts. Kendrick was an only child and was very close with both of his parents. The relationship between Kendrick and John was di¯ erent than a typical father and son, John said. "It was more of a friendship than it was a father-son type thing," John said. "We had a special bond." It's because of that special bond between Kendrick and his parents that John believes he loved others the way he did – and why he didn't hesitate when giving his life to save his fellow students during the STEM shooting. "When you're lucky enough to have the relationship the three of us had, you almost don't even realize you're doing things," John said. "It's not like you're planning to raise someone a certain way. If there's love in that family, it's what you do. "There's no changing what he would do. He wouldn't waver from doing good." As news broke about Kendrick's actions, many have used the word "hero" to describe him. 'John feels very proud of his son's act of heroism, but he said that it's the way that Kendrick lived his life that he's most proud of. "I believe God used him for what he needs him for. He was a tool, a faithful follower…he saved his friends," John said. "The fact that he did what was in his heart for his friends is more power- ful to me than that word 'hero.' It really represents who he was." The pain that John and Maria are bearing is a pain that will never go away. "It's a really tough thing," John said through tears. "Kendrick is the most devout, holy person I've ever known. He was a beautiful spirit. He was my strength." As unbearable as the pain is, John and Maria rest in the confi dence that Kendrick is enjoying eternal life in heaven and that they will be reunited with him there. "I truly believe in my heart that Kendrick was on loan to my wife and I," John said. "I think he's with his true father." Kendrick and his father would volunteer with the Knights of Columbus at Notre Dame Parish in Denver. Kendrick was an only child and had a very close relationship with his parents. PHOTOS PROVIDED I truly believe in my heart that Kendrick was on loan to my wife and I. I think he's with his true father." JOHN CASTILLO "
