Missing WWU student's body found off Bellingham dock

Summary:
          Dwight Clark, a Western Washington University freshman, has been missing since September 26 after he left a party six blocks away from his university dorm. His body was found off a dock in Bellingham by a man plating  eel grass. The Clark's driver's license was on his body which helped Mark Young, spokesman of the Bellingham Police Department, to confirm  that there was no reason to deny that was not Clark's body. The body was reported to the Port before the Port Official called the Police Department. That area was found carefully by air and by dog. The body was hidden and covered carefully so it couldn't have been detected. The WWU president Bruce Shepard said that they were really sorry about what happened. WWU is planning a gathering at Red Square to remember Clark.

Personal Response:
         I feel really bad for what happened, even though I don't know who he is. But actually he's just like me, a freshman college student. His future is showing. His beautiful future is showing in front of his face. It's said that he was one of the best kids in the area so I think his lost will be a huge lost for WWU and many of his friends. I really want to say sorry to his friends, his family and pray for him to rest in peace.
