Need help finding someone!

Back in the fall of 1998 into the winter of 1999 I lived in Ekin and rode the bus every morning to Tipton elementary school. I used to sit with this boy every morning and to this day I still think about him. I had a rough childhood and the morning rides to school with him were my favorite and I have this overwhelming urge to find him. It’s probably a long shot at this point and this is the only place I can think to start. I don’t remember his name but I can remember his hair color, coat and some of the things we would talk about. He would be the same age as me, possibly 32-33 years old and we were 8 or 9 at the time.
