Poetic Obituaries: [Tevis] Shaw, a 2004 graduate

of Lafayette High School, was a sous-chef at Bellini's restaurant and was to start attending classes at the University of Kentucky on Wednesday.

"He played guitar and he was a good writer," said his mother, Katherine Shaw of Lexington. He wrote poetry, but usually didn't show his poems to others, she said.

    a delicate life
    deep in family love
    and open to all the world
    leaves a life of experiences
    unplayed upon the word
    a family distrought
    a twin devestated
    what had he to say
    who could his words have helped
    becoming a stranger to this world
    if his words should disappear
