TO The Family of Roicana Casper:

You have my deepest sympathy on the lost of your daughter. For GOD looked down from heaven and saw a beautiful flower for his garden by the name of Roicana. He silently whispered in her ear come to me and she did. No time for good byes and hugs and kisses. Keep GOD in your prayers and remember that GOD does things for a reason, never turn your back on him.

I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT ROICANA WAS MY BEST FRIEND. WE WENT TO MIDDLE SCHOOL TOGETHER AND WE HAD SO MUCH FUN. SHE WAS ALWAYS HAPPY WHEN SHE CAME TO SCHOOL. THEN WE BOTH WERE IN HIGH SCHOOL OUR 9TH GRADE YEAR AND WHEN SHE WENT TO ANOTHER SCHOOL I WAS MAD BECAUSE WE HAD CLASSES TOGETHER. I AM GOING TO MISS ROICANA'S SMILE THE MOST. SHE MADE ME SO HAPPY WHEN WERE IN CLASS. I COULD BE MAD AND SHE WOULD BE LIKE JAZZY DON'T LET NOBODY SPOIL YOUR DAY. SO I AM GOING TO MISS ROICANA SO MUCH. I LOVE YOU BOO. I KNOW YOU'RE OKAY NOW.
