My sympathies go out to you and your family.
At this time of great sorrow,
You are all in my prayers.

Life is a weird thing,
The way it takes when it feels like it,
Gives when it wants,
It makes us stronger in doing so.

Only the good are taken first,
To remain in our lives as guardian angels,
Your Daughter lived a rich life.

She had a wonderful family,
That was always there for her,
For that she was thankful.

Always remember the good times,
Remember her smiles and laughter,
She would have wanted you to.

A funeral is not about death,
It is a celebration of a person’s life,
And of the memories that are left behind.

As your Daughter is laid to rest,
Remember she will always be with you all,
A piece of her remains in each and every one of you.

Loss is always a hard part of life,
But never forget you are not alone,
For her spirit lives in each of you,
So let her spirit live on.

Your friends and family will always be there,
To cry with you,
To laugh with you,
To get angry with you,
Most of all,
They are there to remember with you.

In saying this Sincerely,
In this time of grieving,
I hope you all find comfort in each other,
And your sadness turns to happy memories quickly.
With Sympathy
The Kane Family

I will miss my little friend, we spent alot of time together. All the those times coloring and shopping. Talking about all of her belongings and when she would talk to her family she would drive us crazy. I'm going to miss my little friend, it's hard to believe she's gone because she brightend up my day by making me laugh.
