After almost two weeks of holding out hope that he would become responsive after a jet skiing accident, Tameka Raymond and Ryan Glover decided to remove their son Kile Glover off life support early Saturday morning, according to AJC.com.  He was 11 years old.

Kile and an unidentified young lady were sitting on a water tube on Lake Lanier in Atlanta when a jet ski being powered by Jeffrey Hubbard ran into them.  According to reports, they were all part of the same group enjoying the outing. There are no indications from police that Hubbard was under the influence of any type of drugs or alcohol at the time. He’s not been charged with any crime.

After word about the accident got out, an outpouring of well wishes, positive thoughts and prayers were extended to Kile, the Foster (Tameka’s maiden name) and Glover families as well as to Usher who was married to Tameka for two years and also shares two sons.  Tameka has tweeted twice since the accident: a July 14th message simply saying, “#Pray4Kile” and tweeting a picture on Friday of Kile and younger brother Usher IV. Today, many are sending their condolences out to the family.  Kile’s older brother Ryan posted a picture of Kile as a toddler with a message that read:

“R.I.P.  lil brother. Kile I love you soo much and I wish I was the one in Heaven instead of you.  From now on, everything I do is for you. ily man.” Note: ily = I love you

Willie A. Watkins Funeral Home told AJC.com that funeral arrangements were pending but declined to give any other information.

Many of us can only imagine what it is like to have to bury our own child, especially one so young, so we extend our condolences, thoughts and prayers to all the family and friends of Kile Glover, especially his parents and siblings.

    This was so tragic for the young man…I don’t know how true it is but a friend of mines said she read somewhere that the mother’s insurance would no longer cover for her son….If true this is even more heartbreaking.

    So sad. Rest in peace. My grandmother always said when family “fights and breakup” god will always take somebody.

    RIP Kile. So young. I cannot imagine this family’s grief. This is bad reporting. He wasn’t taken off life support. His heart stopped.

    Life is so fragile. May Kile’s soul rest in peace and may his family – especially his mother – find solace in the fact that he is now in a better place.
