Ferndale student, Dante DeLeon, died Thursday as a result of injuries sustained in a traffic accident on Grandview Road.
Friends and fellow students took to social media to express and share their grief. They also came together at a memorial of flowers, candles and cards set up at Ferndale High School for a candlelight vigil.

“How tragic of an incident but so amazing to see students of our school come together to laugh, cry and share memories together. Rip Dante ❤️“
