Parents of Andrew McMorris, boy killed by drunken driver, accept his honorary high school diploma

While his classmates wore caps and gowns during graduation rehearsal, a photo of 12-year-old Andrew McMorris, frozen in time, joined the Class of 2024.
Andrew, who was killed in 2018 by a drunken driver while hiking with his Boy Scout troop in Manorville, had so many moments stolen from him: Christmases, birthdays, going to college.
But his parents, Alisa and John McMorris, of Wading River, vowed they would not miss out on his high school graduation. They accepted his posthumous diploma at Shoreham-Wading River High School as his name is read with his class.
