So young so sad, prayers to him and his family
May he rest in peace. Our sincere condolences to Dr. Lackman and his family.
Love you James you will be missed ❤️
So sad but not surprising. I live very close to that tragic spot and see speeding, blowing through stop signs, and complete lack of attention from drivers. An elementary and middle schools are very close to Canyon High so MANY CHILDREN walk those residential streets that are used as SPEEDWAYS constantly. We need the police to show a greater understanding of a watchful eye. Everyone will slow down if there is a sheriff’s vehicle cruising around.
Nubia Santizo is this his son?
Yes! So very sad ?
Omgee that s awful
I’ll tell u more on Thurs
I am In tears right now. So sad
Dr.Lackman, My heart and prayers go out to your Family! Wonderful doctor…. My condolences. May God give you strength through this difficult time ?
Thoughts and prayers to his family. Dr Lackman is a wonderful person. My heart aches for him.

May the faith of the family and loved ones sustain them in this time…
lost young life. sorry.
Poor dr. Lackman!! So sorry for this tragic loss!
Santa Clarita and Valencia are terrible when it comes to people speeding, texting, eating…they do everything but drive safely. Everyone is always in a damn rush.
Exactly my point. Everyone needs to multitask while driving, I see it while I’m driving very defensively.
Dr. Lackman is my dr. My sincere condolences to you. So sorry to hear this
Melissa Lackman is the mother and a wonderful person, she gives many hours of time to The ARTree as a valuable board member.
My God be with you and your family in this time of need.
