Lomond’s mother, Sherry Duperre, described her son as having a beautiful, soft heart.

“A heart of gold – as I always told him,” she said. “He made friends easily and could strike up a conversation with anyone. He was always there to help. He was funny, smart and full of love. Trevor was a very honest person who would always help out his friends if he could.”
