盧卡斯電影公司使這位21歲的英雄迷永垂不朽

Riley Howell – a 21-year-old hero who died while saving fellow classmates in the UNC Charlotte shooting – has been honored as a Jedi Master in the new Star Wars universe book. The college student, along with another 19-year-old classmate, took the bullets and thus prevented more injuries and deaths after a gunman opened fire in one of the classrooms of the University of North Carolina. Riley has been hailed as a hero by the local police, who praised his quick thinking and courage that “saved lives.”

21歲的賴?yán)?middot;豪威爾在北卡羅萊納大學(xué)夏洛特分校槍擊案中，在救同學(xué)時(shí)犧牲。他在最新的《星球大戰(zhàn)宇宙》系列小說(shuō)中被授予絕地大師稱(chēng)號(hào)。這名大學(xué)生和另一名19歲的同學(xué)一起，在北卡羅萊納大學(xué)的一間教室里，在一名槍手開(kāi)槍后，他們接過(guò)了子彈，從而避免了更多的傷亡。賴?yán)划?dāng)?shù)鼐阶u(yù)為英雄，他們稱(chēng)贊他敏捷的思維和勇氣“拯救了生命”。

“He loved Star Wars, birds, cards, snowboarding, going to the lake, Kentucky Hot Browns cooking from scratch with cast iron while listening to the Feel Good Classic Soul playlist, and his Lauren,” Riley’s family told the media. “He could also put away a pizza.” Following the tragic death of the college student, people commemorated him in many different ways. But Riley’s family feels that the most recent commemoration is the most fitting one.

萊利的家人在接受媒體采訪時(shí)說(shuō):“他喜歡《星球大戰(zhàn)》、小鳥(niǎo)、紙牌、滑雪板、去湖邊、肯塔基州的Hot Browns餐廳，一邊聽(tīng)著Feel Good Classic Soul的歌單，一邊用鑄鐵從頭開(kāi)始做飯，還有他的Lauren。”萊利的家人告訴媒體：“他還可以放一個(gè)披薩。”在那位大學(xué)生不幸去世后，人們用許多不同的方式來(lái)紀(jì)念他。但萊利的家人認(rèn)為，最近的紀(jì)念活動(dòng)是最合適的。

Lauren Westmoreland, Riley’s girlfriend of almost six years, recently announced a heartwarming tribute to the late hero in a TikTok video. Apparently, Riley is immortalized in the new book named Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker — The Visual Dictionary. In it, Riley becomes “Ri-Lee Howell – a Jedi Master and historian of the Jedi Order.” Lucasfilm, the studio behind the Star Wars movies, has created a new character in its storied mythology, and let the Howell family know by sending them a heartfelt letter.

與萊利交往近6年的女友勞倫·威斯特摩蘭最近在一段TikTok視頻中向這位已故英雄致以了溫暖的敬意。顯然，萊利在新書(shū)《星球大戰(zhàn):天行者的崛起》中有不朽的形象——視覺(jué)詞典。在這部電影中，萊利成為了“絕地大師和絕地武士團(tuán)的歷史學(xué)家——Ri-Lee Howell”?！缎乔虼髴?zhàn)》系列電影的制作方盧卡斯影業(yè)在其傳奇故事中創(chuàng)造了一個(gè)新角色，并給豪厄爾一家寄去了一封衷心的信。

“Riley’s courage and selflessness brings out the Jedi in all of us. We hope you may rejoice in his memory, and we join you in honoring his life and example,” the letter went. “All of us here extend our deepest condolences. The Force will be with Riley, and all of you, always.”

“萊利的勇氣和無(wú)私激發(fā)了我們所有人的絕地精神。我們希望你們?yōu)樗乃栏械礁吲d，我們和你們一起紀(jì)念他的一生，為他樹(shù)立榜樣。”“我們?cè)谶@里表示最深切的哀悼。原力將永遠(yuǎn)與萊利和你們同在。”

Lauren says that Riley grew up watching the Star Wars films and was a huge fan of the franchise, therefore this tribute is especially moving to the hero’s family.

In the TikTok video, Lauren said: “Thanks for giving my love the perfect Christmas present ever, and making him a part of the Star Wars universe perpetually.”

“Having this positive thing come out this time of year, it’s just the best Christmas gift any of us could’ve ever received given the circumstances,” she added. “It makes it just a little bit okay,” Lauren told the media.
