🕊️ A Salute from the Boy Scouts of the Philippines
With heavy hearts, we mourn the passing of Scout Chris Lorenz Fabian, a 15-year-old Scout from San Jose National High School in Tacloban City.
In the midst of fear and gunfire, he chose not to run. Instead, he stood between danger and his classmates, using his own body to shield the classroom door in an attempt to protect those inside. His final moments reflected extraordinary courage and selflessness.
We honor his bravery and extend our deepest condolences to his family, friends, school, and fellow Scouts. While words can never ease the pain of such a loss, we hope they find strength in knowing that his courage touched countless lives.
⚜️ As Scouts, we remember him not only for how he died, but for how he lived—guided by service, courage, and concern for others. His legacy will continue to inspire Scouts to live by the Scout Oath and Law.
Rest in eternal peace, Scout Chris Lorenz Fabian. 🕊️ Your memory will forever remain in our hearts, and your courage will never be forgotten.
Gone from our sight, but never from our Scout spirit. ⚜️
