It's been 5 years since your presence brightened the heart of all the people who love you. In honor of your memory, I send your parents healing energy to hold their hearts in peace and light while they celebrate the fullness of their time with you. Your Me-Ma holds your memory in her heart and home. When she first brought your plant home it was in full bloom and it grew as a plant but the flower didn't come back. This year you bloomed! The flower came back bright and vibrant and allows everyone to remember the impact that your love has on all of us. Noelani you were made in love and will forever be remembered as the child who makes hearts smile. I will speak your name to lift you up in spirit and show my gratitude and appreciation for the hard work you put into covering your parents and your brother. You are not gone, the spirit is infinite, and it with this eternal flow of energy that you will never be forgotten. Tomorrow I will light a white candle for you so you can always find your way home. Thank You for being a blessing on our journey.

A more fitting name couldn't have been given to such a beautiful spirit. You were a powerhouse presence at birth. There is a blessing in knowing that your mission and purpose was so omnificent that you were called home to watch over the lives who you taught what unconditional love truly means. Jajuan and Sarina I hope that peace swiftly touches your hearts. I commend you for your patience and strength and pray that the love between you be blessed and sealed with longevity. She will always be with you and as long as remember her she will never be forgotten. Sending vibrations of love.
