You will be missed by so many. You were beautiful, caring, genuine, compassionate, brave, hard working, fun loving, honest and so much more. Thank you for always being you and standing up for what you believed in. You were such an inspiration to the children's lives that you worked with. You loved your children like no other. They were your motivation. I will miss your calls. Your texts. Our friendship.
