She was the greatest friend I've ever had. Her smile lit me up whenever I saw it. She went with me to my first day of kindergarten or first grade. I do not recall. I know that because our parents were sealed in the temple I can go to the celestial kingdom and see her when the end of the millenium comes. May you rest in peace you sweet girl!

No parent should ever see the grief that the Tibbetts are having to endure. Only having worked with Greg I carry with me the impression of perhaps the most compassionate sincere being I've encountered in my life. I can't imagine a comprehensible rhyme or reason other than a divine sacrifice serving as a reminder that we can never take anyone or anything for granted.
Thank you, young Rebecca, for you gave me cause to reach out and express my love and gratitude to many whom I've taken for granted in my day to day life. You gave me cause to feel sadness and confusion through which one can only truly understand happiness and clarity.
Energy is infinite; it can never be created and it can never be destroyed.

I am so, so sorry for those who knew and loved Rebecca and the Tibbetts.

Today on 3/25/13...
There was a girl by the name of Rebecca Tibbitts, she has passed on to a new, and a better place. I know that last week is not the last time i will see her. I know i will see her in heaven. I know she is looking down on us an helping us accomplish our trials that she has already faced in her short but great life. I was very close with Becca Tibbitts and i love her so much. I am not afraid to admit that i have been crying all day about this terrible incident that has occurred. Many other people are sad too an d know that she wants us to be happy not sad. What has happened was a terrible tragedy. I am also not afraid to admit that i had to go home because i could not handle everybody at school. I even had to go see a counselor.

Now i have some things o say about this beautiful girl...
She was always uplifting an helpings others that have fallen down and do not know how to get back up. She never teased anyone or gave any grief. She had a gentle heart and was very caring. She loved her friend and especially her family. She had a proud and strong attitude about her. She never cared about what others thought of her. She had a strong and very healthy testimony in the church of jesus christ of latter day saints.
Please not just for me but all of her loved ones and great friends, please participate in wearing purple dress cloths tomorrow to school. Even if you were not as close as i was to her.
Rebecca Tibbitts you will be mossed by many people who loved you and cared about you. I love you and know many others do as well.
