OQ=TIM SAUNDERS, NEWS 7. << With balloons in hand, the


Thompson family is celebrating - but
also remembering - a life cut short.


The life of a fun loving person
named they call TJ.


CHEREE THOMPSON: 41:55 "IT'S BEEN


A YEAR AND FIVE MONTHS, BUT WE JUST
WANTED TO LET HIM KNOW THAT WE STILL
REMEMBER HIM." 41:59


DONNA THOMPSON: 7:19:15 "HE'S
NEVER GOING TO BE FORGOTTEN, HE WILL
ALWAYS BE HERE WITH US, NO MATTER
WHAT." 7:19:19.


While his family hasn't
forgotten, they're worried everyone
else has, including police.


That's why they held this vigil
-- to bring awareness to the case - and
hopefully, bring the person responsible
to justice.


7:20:10 "Why, why did it have to
happen? That's a question we don't
know. That the million dollar
question."


SHANNON THOMPSON: 45:41 "They
shouldn't have had to take his life the
way they did. They took a cousin, a
brother, just a loving person away from
us." 45:50


They're also trying to bring
awareness to violent crimes like the
one that killed TJ, so that his death
wasn't in vain.


7:19:44 Stop the violence. It
happens all over, everywhere, not just


here."


One by one, his family and
friends light a candle in TJ's memory.


Leaving them on the very spot
where he died last May.


They'll continue to wear these
t-shirts as a message to TJ


"Rest in peace, we'll see him at
the crossroads."


STANDUP - The family tells us
that police haven't been actively
investigating this case, but they're
hoping that by getting TJ's name back
in the spotlight, someone will
eventually come forward with the
answers they've been looking for.

Well believe it or not....today


it took 10 people to accomplish just
that.


Six teams competed in the iron
horse pull in downtown Roanoke.


They had to pull this train and
the goal was to move it ten feet.


Each team had three tries and
they ended up moving this huge
locomotive about 4 feet.


The winning team was a
fraternity, Theta Chi from Radford
University.


A lot of hard work but more than
3 thousand dollars was raised for
Special Olympics and the Virginia
Museum of Transportation.

ESPNU Things didn't start well for :00 UVA. On the opening possession, Jameel
Sewell gets pressured in the backfield


and throws up the pick to the Pack's
Dajuan Morgan giving State a golden
opportunity.


That led to this. Daniel Evans
airs it out to Donald Bowens on the 40
yard touchdown strike to make it
7-nothing Wolfies early.


But the Virginia offense put
together a 6 play, 61 yard drive in the
second quarter capped by this Mikell
Simpson touchdown on the shovel pass.


Virginia trailed 20 to 17 at
the break.


But Simpson scored again on
this carry early in the fourth quarter,
giving the Hoos their first lead at
24-23.


State had the last word
though.
*CG final Virginia #15 Evans goes deep to Bowens one more

17-7 at halftime. It was the 2nd
touchdown catch of the year for

But midway thru the second
quarter, R-J Varner tied things up,
