The incident occurred during the afternoon swim period for campers entering first and second grades.
According to camp officials, a lifeguard found Michael unresponsive in a shallow pool, pulled him out of the water, and administered CPR.
Despite efforts to revive him, Michael was pronounced dead at a local hospital later that day.
Michael’s entry into this world was a battle. Born as a micro-preemie at 23 weeks and weighing only one pound and three ounces, doctors did not expect him to survive.
However, with his mother’s relentless advocacy and faith, Michael defied the odds and grew into an intelligent, loving, and caring boy. His resilience and love of learning endeared him to everyone who knew him.
“Michael taught me how to fight and he taught me to fight without using my hands,” Enjoli said. “He taught me how to fight in a different manner.”
Michael was particularly fond of his younger sister Layla, and they played basketball and baseball together. Enjoli said her son was “extremely smart,” and had a large vocabulary.
