Dai-Jon Parker, Milton High School graduate: life tragically cut short
MILTON, Ga. (WXIA) -- A huge, extended family of loved ones across the country is mourning the loss of a star student-athlete from Milton High School.
Dai-Jon Parker, Milton High School Class of 2011, drowned Thursday in an accident on a lake near his college, in Indiana.
Such promise, cut so short, say all those who knew him.
In the four years since Dai-Jon graduated from Milton High School -- he was part of Milton HS's state championship basketball team of 2010, his Senior year -- he's worked hard to conquer the world and live his dreams.
