Alex Ritchie

Babe,
I know you can't read this, but it makes me feel better knowing other people can. I miss you so much everyday, but yesterday especially. It just wasn't the same without you. I know things will slowly become "normal" again, but I will NEVER forget you. You are now and forever the love of my life, and I just hope you know that. May you rest in peace, and I hope you still love me as much today as you did 2 months ago. I love you forever and always.

Of all the people I've ever met, Alex was one of the most wonderful and caring. He was a great friend to me and to everyone he knew. I will continue to miss him everyday, but at the same time try to find comfort that he is with God now. It's all just so hard to understand. My prayers go out to his family, all his friends, and Ashley. I'll never forget the "sledding incident" Alex, I love and miss you!

To Alex's family: I just want you all to know how much I love you. You guys are like family, and the way that Alex's and my plans were going, it would have been official. I know you all are going through a really tough time, but I want you to know that you will always have me. Alex is gone, but you have me as a daughter too! I just want you to know that I loved him with all my heart, and I honestly believe we were meant to be together. I'll be praying for you! I love you!
