Now, I'm not sure if the owner lived in the neighborhood or not, but apparently he did know that this was a spot where all of the kids would gather to play with each other.

And he had absolutely no issues with it at all.

It's not like they were doing anything harmful or illegal, right?

It was just kids getting together and playing.

They were just playing football, tag, or other childhood games.

And according to some of the neighbors, the guy who owned the field would even sometimes play with the kids, kind of join in on the fun, like he enjoyed the spirit of it all.

The kids also never damaged the property or disrespected it.

The worst thing that they could possibly do was maybe forget some of their toys on the lawn and then leave them behind when they returned back home, which...

They, of course, would eventually come back for them the following day since this was like their stomping grounds.

This is where they played.

And so I want to touch on that for a moment here.

AJ was a mother of four young children, 12-year-old Isaac, 10-year-old Izzy, 7-year-old Africa, and Titus, who was just a baby.

Now, being a mother was absolutely the most important role in the world to AJ.

She loved her kids more than anything.

She was also a very hardworking mom.
