- Darrell Scott, the father of Rachel Joy Scott, sat down with Denver7 nearly 25 years after her death to share how her story has impacted millions of lives.
Those students and teacher that were killed will never be forgotten!
@MoeLester80And yet, here you are claiming that you don't remember. 🙄
@MoeLester80 uncalled for
This chain needs to come back, cause bullying is a problem again in our country and these kids today don’t know about Rachel and her chain of kindness to help prevent bullying. Thank you again to Rachel for helping spread kindness to our children. Continue to rest in peace and paradise sweet girl 🌈🌈🌈🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🕊️🕊️🕊️
I think I might know ~5 people who might shoot their school in the future, but who knows what could happen.
@@the__professional2454 Agreed, but yet that happens as well sadly.
I agree
I was only 2.5 years old when this happened. Rachel was such a kind, loving, beautiful soul. RIP
I was so touched reading about her story many years ago, it's so emotional seeing these commemorative videos 25 years on. May the God of all peace & comfort continue to strengthen those who survived & their families xx
For some reason hers touched me even more.
How sad prayers for her family 😢😢😢😢
Rachel, I am so SO SORRY. To Rachel's family, friends, loved ones: I send you my heartfelt energy to bring you any peace that is possible. There are so many people out here that care.
Her brother actually survived, 2 of his friends died (one was black) and they yelled racial slurs at Isaiah and shot him. They also killed his friend matt and her brother spoke out 25 years later about hows he was grateful he died and how he had survivors guilt.
Yes I remember that 😢 he took all their deaths very hard.
They wanted everyone dead. Dylan and Eric hated everyone equally.
Rest in eternal peace to you Rachel Joy Scott. My deepest and sincerest condolences to you, your father, and family
I watch Rachel's movie "I am not Ashamed " frequently. She is such a inspiration after 25 years. I strive to live as kind hearted as Rachel was.
@@tomthemantv6482it's a bullshit narrative bud. Christian propaganda cash in. It wasn't even Rachel that was asked if she believed in God. Look at official reports from student witnesses. Also, they called isaiah shoels the n word before they killed him. Also shot a white boy in the face. They wanted everyone dead. Spared no one. No narrative at all. Wanted the whole school slaughtered.
It’s very embellished to make a religious point
Thoughts and prayers to Rachel and her family
Why are you praying to Rachel?
🙄🙄🙄
No words are needed on this one just absolutely speechless is all I could say. 🙏😭💔
agreed🙏♥
though I was in elementary school I will never forget this and 9/11. God bless your son and all the young who experienced this tragedy!
I signed Rachel's challenge, i befriended a girl my senior year who had no friends and she stabbed me in the back by setting me up to be SAed, ive long sense forgiven her, but i dont talk to her anymore, she even went as far as to name her daughter my chosen babys name.
Just be kind, it doesn't take much effort ❤
I was in high school when they talked about Rachel’s Challenge and I signed it. I never imagined it would happen again, and again, and again and so on. And because they keep happening, I’m terrified for my cousins that still go to school or about to. I never want the day to come when I hear about it happening at their school or worse. I don’t want to hear about it happening to kids of people I know and care about. I don’t want to hear it happening to anybody. I can’t stand the sound of gun fire, and hearing about these terrible shootings is making it worse.
She is such an inspiration, a true daughter of God.
How do you know that? You don't know what was in her heart!!!
@@theinsightfulvisionary0197 she professed her faith as her last words on earth.
@@theinsightfulvisionary0197 oh wait. I think I have her confused with another girl. Either way, she has a beautiful and amazing soul, proven by her words. I never knew her here on earth but I love her for it... Plus she reminds me of my son's girlfriend.
@@theinsightfulvisionary0197🙄🙄🙄
@@theinsightfulvisionary0197 here's a comment - no comment necessary
Rachel is no longer with her family and friends, but
her words will forever live on.
God Bless you all!
We need to help our kids so they can grow up feeling loved then hate
I'm sorry for your loss!!! She was beautiful!!!
Always Remembered and Never Forgotten
She looked beautiful. May the Poor lady rest in peace.😞
Her and my Mom share a birthday REJOICE WITH GOD Rachel ENJOY HEAVEN!!!!GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY!!!!!.
Thanks for sharing a positive message from this tragic event. Joy Scott's family should know the positive impact Joy has on lives today even in this short UA-cam video. Thanks also to Denver 7.

Why?
@@RyannLagattutasending love? are you dumb? Don’t be stupid.
@@RyannLagattutayour joking right?
@@RyannLagattutaYou actually need an explanation?
I went down to Colorado to attend the 25th. I cried my eyes out when I stood at Rachel's grave. I've accepted Rachel's Challenge.
I cried through this me and her share exactly what we like just seeing her diary i feel her soul, hearing how much she wanted to spewas kindness and help others just touched my heart truly sad how she lost her life so young but shes helping many out there through her soul may she never be forgotten ❤i almsot cried hearing this
You can't bully kids when you do they retaliate and take everyone out
RIP Rachel!!!
Rachel Joy Scott was the first person to die at Columbine on April 20 1999 and I saw the movie about her called I am Not Ashamed The Story Of Rachel Joy Scott and she did leave an impact on people and Rachel's Challenge was started after Columbine and Rachel seemed like the All American Golden Girl who had alot of dreams and hopes and wishes and her life was cut short and she was only 17 and she was a junior at Columbine.. This chain needs to come back b/c of what is happening in schools today with so many kids being bullied and hated and labeled for no reason. 12 Students and one teacher died the others saved themselves from the 2 shooters Eric Harris's family never spoke out but probbaly went into deep hiding and Sue Kelbold was only one that talked about this*** She spoke about Dylan Kelbold and what her son did.. She didn't know how could she know? Rachel Joy Scott was what a true Christian ought to be caring and helpful and friendly and she died believing in GOD and Jesus gave up his life for me I will give up my life for him! That was in one of her journals RIP Rachel Joy Scott I hope to see you one day.
Rachel’s Challenge has changed so many lives and needs to come back. There’s definitely not enough kindness in this world 🌎 today ❤ I remember when this happened. I was 14 at the time. Still is so tragic and there’s been several school 🏫 shootings since. Something needs to change with gun laws & with bullying.
She's never forgotten 😢😢😢
When he showed the backpack I lost it 💔
I Will Miss My Cousin Rachel She Was In Our Hearts With Us And She Gave Us Our Hearts And We Will Love Her She’s With God And Jesus And I Will Pray For Their School It Happens It Was Long Time Ago I Will Miss My Cousin In Heaven With Jesus And God I Love You Cousin Rachel I Miss You 😢 God Bless You Amen 🙏
Am so sorry for your loss 🥺😭💔
I am so very sorry for your loss.
At 3:33, the baby pictures of Rachel look like a younger version of Katie Holmes. The resemblance is striking.
I remember signing that bannder in middle school and hear her story and will always remember it
She was so beautiful !!!
Thanks Lord for your salvation
The students and the teacher are in heaven rest in peace
I met Rachel's dad on sept 9, 2001, when he was a guess speaker @ our church, two days later we were hit by terrorist on 9/11.
God/Jesus/The Holy Spirit was with us when these horrific sad events happened. And He will always be with us :) And He has never ever abandoned us. And He never ever will no matter what :) And He was with Rachel Joy Scott. And all of the students who lost their lives on that awful sad day :) And they lost their lives because they absolutely loved Jesus Christ with everything they had. And they didn’t back down. And now they’re with Jesus in Heaven:) And their walking with Him. And we will for sure see them again someday soon:) And what an amazing exciting reunion party it’s going to be on that day!! :) thank you Jesus for your amazing promises that you have given to us:) And that we can absolutely hold onto every day :) And we thank you God for that!! And my genuine heartfelt condolences do go out to the families/closest friends who lost their loved ones on this horrible horrible day years ago!! And we thank you Jesus for the amazing memories /amazing heroic stories about who the young people who are no longer with us. And may their memories/and their heroic stories continue to be told. And passed down for the next generations to hear about!
I was in middle school (6th grade 2009-2010) when they came to my school to talk about Rachel's challenge. Time goes by fast!
So sorry to hear this. Beautiful girl. My heart goes out to the family. Prayers
25 ...
RIP Rachel. Gone but never forgotten! I'll love you forever friend!
I come from Poland and l member this tragedy...I was 17 y.o
Rachel is my role model. God used her in such a special way😢❤
Matthew 11:28-30
[28]Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
[29]Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
[30]For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
When she said she would touch the hearts of millions she wasn't lying even though I didn't know her in life out of all the victims when I see her picture or hear about her story it's a feeling in my heart I 💔 can't explain 😢 the most high made that girl special r.i.p baby girl love u
There's a movie based on her life titled " I am not ashamed ".
It was her Radical Love ❤️ for JESUS! That made her different.
She was a inspiration to all. She was an inspiration to me. My Sister in Christ
RIP. Rachel
My high school had the Rachel challenge, and they even had a club called friends of Rachel
Rachel's father had a group he led at the time. I was 17 years old and was a member. As much as he praises God and talks about his faith, he was cheating on his wife Beth at the time, leaving her and the children. He disgusts me with all his religious talk. Now he is using her to uplift himself to the world?
Regardless of cheating on his wife, he did not deserve to have his child murdered
People change. None of us are perfect as Jesus, we make mistakes and one mistake doesn’t mean he deserved this or Rachel. Many times we really become closer to God in the face of pain and tragedy. How else could he go on without her without God?
Sure not going here. Has nothing with Rachel Joy Scott's life to me.
Rest in heavenly peace Rachel ❤
Such a beautiful young lady that never had the chance to graduate hs and collage maybe drive a car have kids get married all that was taken because of those cowards that day
She did drive. She drove her car the day she died. Her brother recounts that they were late to school because of he did not want to go, and she got upset at him. When they finally made it to school, he slammed the door and told her he hated her. It was the last thing he said to her. I hate that for the both of them.
@@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex wow that has to be hard on him
@@Harry-so5hx My heart breaks for him. He lost his sister and two best friends, including his black friend who had to hear racial epithets thrown at him just before he died. Rachel's brother had to tearfully tell Isiah's father that he held him until he died and as he played dead. He also said that Isiah died begging to see his mom. These were children that we lost.
@@JenniferBrigitteOpticalVortex it really is a shame and it's sad this still happens 25 years later
Rachel went through so much! In the movie “I am not ashamed” wow God took her away for a reason 😢❤
Keep; the light, bright. 📺
I give my life to God.
Poor Rachel Scott. 😞😞😢😢🥺🥺💐💐🌺🌺🌸🌸🪻🪻🌹🌹🙏🏽🙏🏽✝️✝️🕊️🕊️ She’s the Joy to everybody. Poor Craig Scott and the rest of the Scott Family, Rachel along with the other 12 innocent people, they were robbed of their hopes and dreams to pursue. Rachel Scott and the 12 people are Guardian Angels. 🥺🥺🌈🌈☁️☁️
😢💔🙏🏾
❤❤❤😢😢😢
Amen praise God in His love God bless
I remember them doing Rachel's Challenge in high school. I wonder if they still do that now. School is anarchy right now...
😢😢😢❤
🙏💓🙏
Such a beautiful girl!
I was five years old when it happened
I was 34

And your friends. And your teacher who are now with Jesus you guys will never ever be forgotten I Promise you guys that:) And I can’t wait to meet you guys face to face in Heaven someday soon :)
💔🥺💐💐💐💐💐🌷🌹🕊️
❤
She loves Jesus so much. 😇🙏❤
Not to sound morbid, But with crimes like these, No disrespect, Sorry if any, But, How do they say they where the first person or last person in any crime?
Is there a book about Rachel
Yes. Rachel's Tears. Changed my life forever.
25 years ago and after all the school shootings since, nothing has changed. The NRA made sure guns come before people. I fear for my niece in school, it is always a possibility her school could be next. So sorry for the family here and all the family since.
JESUS IS LORD
@"El Hermano", yes, also, I, Mr. James C. Robinson III, believe & confess that: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD!❤🥰🤩😊🇺🇸🇮🇱👑✡️🕎✝️
John 3:16-18
[16]For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
[17]For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
[18]He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Rachel was a Beautiful soul. May she rest in peace in Jesus loving arms ❤️🙏
They're leaving out that she was asked if she believed in God and said yes at gun point. Then she was shot.
That never happened but it's something that her parents continue to lie about to this day
That was not Rachel.
YES screw the other victims Rachael is the most important????????? Denver? Denver? Do you know whats wrong?
Shut up.
No one said she was most important, all of them are important, they did a story on Isaiah too... but none of the other families want to talk to the media, hard to do a story with no one talking.
@@BIGBOYMATD do you.....not know about all the columbine documentaries?
@@filmtheory783 and none of them say Rachel is the most important
@@boomds5602no they don't but none of them focus exclusively on a single girl because there wasn't a single victim if there was a documentary about parkland you would expect all the victims to be included not one
It’s been 25 years!! Let it rest already!! Who wants to remember does days?? Yeah, either do the victims!
Take your meds.
@@MyEnemy get over it! It’s been 25 years already!!
@@idesiremore9607 Lowlife.
This is about spreading love in the face of tragedy. We need this message more than ever. Students today need the message of kindness.....maybe it will help prevent another mass shooting. "Those Days" have gotten worse, as evidenced by the increasing mass shootings.
You never get over the death of your child no matter how many years have passed. It doesn’t matter how long it’s been. Rachel was Beautiful. Keeping her memory alive is a wonderful tribute that her family does. May God fix your harden heart. Have some Sympathy. These people lost their children. That’s one of the worst tragedies that anyone can ever experience.
