"We want to be more like him"

Also of great significance, the Knights posthumously granted Kendrick Castillo, an 18 year old high school senior killed in the recent Colorado school shooting, full membership in the Knights of Columbus. A link to the article can be found below. Supreme Knight Carl Anderson summed things up as follows: “We have made a momentous decision,” said Anderson. “Kendrick wanted to join the Knights of Columbus to be more like us. By your acclamation, you have told the world that we want to be more like him.”
