Fusi decided to attend Tennessee State University in Nashville.
"We have some friends there who are ready and willing to support him," said his mother, Lakeisha Fusi. "The best compliment you can get as a parent is that people who don't live with your child every day speak highly of his maturity, his kindness, his generosity and how respectful he is to other people."
