Talon 'Cares Beyond Belief': Ocean City Star Student
Talon has a beautiful heart, his grandmother said. Here's what makes him a Star Student.
OCEAN CITY, NJ — Star Students are found in classrooms, on concert and theater stages and at debate lecterns, and out in the community doing good things to make life better for all of us.
Here at Patch, we've launched an initiative to help recognize Star Students, and we’re working to tell the stories of these outstanding kids to their neighbors.
This submission comes from Gloria who nominated Talon of Ocean City. Gloria is Talon's grandmother.

How do you know the star local student?
He's my grandson
Why do you believe the star local student should be recognized?
Talon has been wrestling since he was very young, and excells at it today! He's a former football player for Upper Township Indians and runs track for OC High School. He has one of the most beautiful hearts I've ever seen in a young man. Respectful, caring and determined. I couldn't be more proud of him.
What's one thing you want everyone to know about the star local student?
He cares beyond belief. As a very young man, riding in the car we me, he told me to quickly pull over. I did so, but was baffled. He jumped out of the car to run up to & shake the hand of a man in uniform! I cried.
Congratulations on your achievements, and all of our best wishes to you in the future, Talon!
