Bakari s dream
Bakari Henderson graduated on a full scholarship from the University of Arizona two months before his death. He wanted to launch the line while in college, but his parents reminded him that college took priority. Jill Henderson says Bakari was a real go-getter. In his mind he was already behind schedule.
Whenever they saw him, he was on his laptop or cellphone working on his vision. He would wake up at 6 a.m. each day and work on his brand. He was just driven, Jill Henderson says.
The plan was for him to return to Austin after the photo shoot and launch the line. The logo was something he had worked on since middle school. It had evolved and represented his travels with a toga and a crown. He gave it a lot of thought, Jill Henderson says.

Austin 360
For many of us, the back-to-back snow and ice storms and single-digit temperatures of mid-February were just hard. Some of us went without heat, electricity and water for days. Many of us have had trouble getting basics such as milk, meat and eggs. Kids have been out of school or daycare.
It was a lot.
Our kids might have proven their resiliency, shown us their grit, but some of them could be feeling scared or anxious. Could this happen again? If this happened, what else could happen?
Right now, parents need to listen to their kids. Be magical listeners, says Jon Lasser, a professor of school psychology at Texas State University. Validate kids concerns instead of saying things like Don t worry. It s OK.
