Noah Pozner, 6, is remembered as a clever and kind young boy, a bright soul who was taken much too early at the hands of cold-blooded killer Adam Lanza, 20, after he gunned down Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtowon, Conn. on Dec. 14. Noah was laid to rest on Dec. 17, and his uncle Alexis Haller delivered a beautiful eulogy, as posted by the New York Post via the Associated Press:

“Words cannot express the unfathomable loss we feel.

Noah was a wonderful son and a loving brother. He was kind, caring, smart, funny, and sometimes even a little mischievous. He liked to tell his sisters that he worked in a taco factory; when they asked him how he got to work, he would give them a funny look as if to say he knew something that they didn’t.

Noah was a little kid. He loved animals, video games and Mario Brothers. He was already a very good reader, and had just bought a Ninjago book at a book fair that he was really excited about reading. He was also very excited about going to a birthday party he had been invited to. It was to take place on Saturday, Dec. 15.

Noah loved his family dearly, especially his mom, his dad, his big sisters Danielle and Sophia, his big brother Michael, and his dear twin Arielle. He called Arielle his best friend, and she was — and always had been.

If Noah had not been taken from us, he would have become a great man. He would been a wonderful husband and a loving father. He would have been a backbone of our family for years to come. His loss, and our loss, are deep indeed.

It is unspeakably tragic that none of us can bring Noah back. We would go to the ends of the Earth to do so, but none of us can.

What we can do is carry Noah within us, always. We can remember the joy he brought to us. We can hold his memory close to our hearts. We can treasure him forever. And all of us, including the family, the community, the country and the world, can honor Noah by loving each other and taking care of each other. That’s what Noah would have wanted.

Noah, we love you so much, we miss you dearly, and we will never, ever forget you.”

Such beautiful words for an unthinkable tragedy. Our thoughts are with Noah’s family during this difficult time.

Noah Pozner and Jack Pinto, both six years old, were among the 20 children killed Friday morning, Dec.14 during the devastating shooting massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, CT.  Services for both of the boys were held earlier today.

Noah’s family and friends gathered at the Abraham L. Green & Son Funeral Home in Fairfield, CT. The burial was followed at B’nai Israel Cemetery in Monroe.

Noah’s twin sister, Arielle, survived the deadly assault when her teacher hid her class in the bathroom.

Jack’s services were held at Honan Funeral Home in Newtown, followed by a burial at Newtown Village Cemetery.

According to Good Morning America,  Jack was a huge New York Giants fan.  After hearing this, Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz wrote “R.I.P. Jack Pinto,” “Jack Pinto, my hero,” and “This one is 4 U!” on his cleats and gloves before playing the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, Dec. 16. Prior to the game, Victor tweeted the photos, along with his condolences.

Victor told reporters that he had been in contact with the Pinto family — and they informed him that they planned on burying their son in Victor’s No. 80 Giants jersey.

“There are no words that can describe the type of feeling you get when a kid idolizes you so much that, you know, unfortunately they put him in a casket with your jersey on,” Victor said.

“I also spoke to an older brother and he was distraught as well. I told him to stay strong and I was going to do whatever I can to honor him,” he added. “He was fighting tears and could barely speak to me.”

Victor said he plans to give the gloves he wore during the game to the Jack’s family.

Victor also revealed that he kept his 11-month-old daughter, Kennedy, extra close to him after hearing about the tragedy.

“We slept together that night,” he said, “and it was a good feeling. It was one that I cherished.”

Our prayers and thoughts are with all the victims, especially with Jack and Noah and their families.
