Sydney is so beautiful. i can't even being to tell you how much i looked up to her. i would kill to be as beautiful as she was. we grew up together. i left RH in 6th grade, and haven't spoken to her since. she was such a good friend to me &^ confided in me for everything. she was just such a great person who would put anyone and everyone before her self. that's probably why i adored her so much. she has such a great soul & she was one of a kind. i love you, sydney sanders. i love her family, laura & caliegh too. i think about y'all every single day. ♥ michaela griffin,
April 26, 2011
I didn't really know her, but i remember seeing her when i was in 4th grade and she was in 5th grade. She would always look at me and smile. Her smile was so great.It put warm comforting thoughts in my mind and heart. God blessed Sydney with everything a girl could possibly want. I'm praying for her and her family. Rest in Peace Gorgeous.

I did not know Sydney but I am from Richmond Hill and lived their most of my life so we knew some of the same people. I was devastated to hear about this. My heart aches for her family. I wish at times like this we knew what to say or do to make everything ok but during something like this their just isn't any words. We try to make sense of these things and ask God why this has to happen,but we seem to never find the answer. Although we don't understand why it's my belief that there is a reason for everything. I pray that the family and loved ones will find piece to get them through this. God will hold you up and carry you and he will not forsake you. Just trust in him and he will see you through. God Bless the family and loved ones, and in the days to come may you find strength. God Bless You All.

I remember attending a birthday party at Tim and Cathy Lane's house with my daughter Katie about six years ago. I remember Sidney and Katie riding horses. I will forever remember that special day.
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

Laura, Caleigh and Family I am so sorry for your loss of Sydney. As a Mother I walked in your shoes six short years ago. My heart aches and you wonder what you missed. There is nothing you missed and Sydney loved you all more than words can say. I know tht GOD has all answers and one day he will show you why. I know the hurt and unending pain and I will keep you in my prayers. GOD sent me to the Bible one night to read Ecclesiastes 3 when I fell to my knees and begged him for help. I hope this will bring you some peace also. GOD now has a beautiful angel and the pain she was feeling is no more. If I can help in any way please contact me. I have lost my baby the same manner 6 years ago. May GOD bless you and give you strength and peace only found thru him. Sydney will truly be missed.
