In March, community members held a parade for Mueller after he had a major surgery. The Indianapolis Colts also honored him on Father's Day.

Counselors will be available for anyone who needs to speak with someone from 8 a.m.-12:30 p.m. Monday at the Education Service Center.

A family spokesperson has asked the community drops off any cards or donations for the family at Coffey Connection Graphics on Morgantown Road. There is also a banner outside the gym at Walnut Grove Elementary School for the community to sign.
