Sending my prayers, strength, and blessings to the family. You’ve always been the sweetest little lady—from the days at T.W. Rumph, being in the same class as my son, to your adult years as a kind presence on Facebook. You will truly be missed."

Im writing this for my daughter Ma’Kayla Franklin who was in Ms. Biffel 3rd grade classroom! I didn’t get the chance to meet her yet, unfortunately! My baby loved her, like she was a 2nd mom! She said she was kind, sweet, loving but made sure everybody was ok! I hate her time was cut short! All the love you have for you on earth, lets me know the kind of person you was! You have touched so many lives! Rest in heaven your job is done!!!
