The common thread you hear when a child dies is there are no words," Cohen said. "There are none. The hole is so large, it can't be filled."
A crisis team was at Tequesta Trace Middle School on Wednesday and will be available to counsel students and faculty for as long as needed, the school district said.
The child's funeral service will be at 1:30 p.m. Thursday at Temple Dor Dorim, 2360 Glades Circle, Weston. Burial will be private.
