Christina, I never knew you in life. I visited the memorial for the first time today, and I read your name. It stuck with me, and I learned your story. You were so bright and accomplished for your young years. I'm so sorry your life was cut short, you were a beautiful lady and I would love to have known you. You inspire me to be grateful for my life and to make the most of each day. I will always pray for you and your family. With love -Sarah

Songwriting is my hobby, and I was touched enough by what I saw on Christina's website and what I learned about her there to write a song about her. If anyone would kindly want to get in touch with me and let me know about some of her interests or her favorite seasons or any small thing at all that might make my composition a nicer song, I'd be grateful and appreciative. I'm not looking to profit from my song. Thank you. Rest in peace, Miss Ryook.

Christina seemed like a nice person. I wanted to say that i was able to do a report on her for 9/11. I am sad that she had to die so early. Even though I am 13 I feel sad for her. But I also know that she is resting in peace.

Christina was a gifted and wonderful student and young lady. It was an honor to have her in my classroom. Her grace and sense of humor were blessing she shared with those who knew her. Rest in peace, Christina.

Missing you, remembering you, seven years later, and even longer since I had actually spoken with you... all like it was just yesterday. Like so many of us, your smile and innocent-yet-mischevious spunky personality is the indullable memory burned in my mind.

Dear Christina, I'm sorry I never got to know you. Your life touched everyone who did, but also some of us who didn't. I know your parents are so proud of you. God bless you and them always. May He bring them peace and the comfort of wonderful memories, especially on your birthdays and on every September 11th.

Christina, if you're around somewhere watching us like I suspect you are, I miss you. I miss having a friend like you. I'm sad you left us, but I'd choose to celebrate knowing you at all over morning your passing. I love you very much and think about you everyday.

I still remember you and the time we had sushi for dinner and how we watched Michelle eat a steak for breakfast. I didn't know you that well but the few times we met you were always so spirited. You will be greatly missed. My prayers goes out to your friends and family.

I read about Chirstina in the Cleveland Plain Dealer magazine. I cried my eyes out, reading the article about her devistated parents. My heart goes out to them and her friends. I hope you find peace in the fact that she is with God waiting for everyone to join her. She's with you everyday. Peace and Love to her family.

My prayers are lost in anger. Little faith that I have seems to fade in despair. Hope not, pain is too great. No words can express this unspeakable sorrow.

My rememberance of you is your cheerful smiles. Yes, your dimpled smile, they have not taken away the smile. Teach me, show me, and make me smile.

I shall spread your good news, smile not sorrow, good not evil, hope not despair, humble not humility, give not desieve, peace not war, and love not hate. I will cherish your smile and the last hug.

Christina, rest in peace.

To the family of Christinia,

I never got to meet you, but because your mother works with my mother, I feel some what attached.

They day after 9/11, your brothers and sisters (Doctors and nurses) all came to New York, to lend their help.

In a time of tradgey, your family was able to help others in need.

Im glad your in a better place now Christina.

America Cries

We see your sorrow-

and our hearts cry....

We can not erase your pain

but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-

-the American people-

are beside you.

We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,

the strength that gives you courage,

and the words to lighten your spirits.

And when we are left speechless

may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts

to ease your sorrow.

May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-

-the American people-

face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn
