Christine Wonsley shared a message to her late son on Threads on Wednesday, noting that she and Nolan called themselves “birth date twins.” Nolan would have celebrated his birthday on August 19.

“It’s my birthday month and you aren’t here to celebrate with me,” she wrote. “I always joked and said we were “almost” birth date twins. We both have milestone birthdays this year and you’re gone. My heart hurts so badly. Guys pray for me because this is the hardest reality I’ve ever had to face. #JusticeForNolanWells #IStandForNolan #NolanMatters.”

The Shade Room reported that Nolan was found dead off of Horn Island two days after he went missing. The teen had been on a Fourth of July outing with a group of mostly white friends.
