Alexandra Valoras

Maybe its because I never had a daughter. Maybe its because if I did, I would have named her Alexandra. Maybe its because her story impacted my life. Maybe its because I know you miss her very much. Maybe its because anniversaries are difficult. Maybe its because I want to let you know Valoras, that many love you and support you in your loss. KEEP the FAITH. I look at her sweet face and share in your grief.

I received an email that a new message had been written and I wanted to read it so I came here again and reread them all. I noticed mine from March of 2019 and was stunned at the time that had passed. 2 + years. My update on my son Mitch is positive. He has grown so much in the last 2 years and had a big realization that he does not have to please everyone but live in the goodness of himself. He lives with-just be good. He got the citizenship award and graduated with honors. But, the pressure...

:(

RIP forever up in Heaven a most talented, smart, and beautiful girl now lost ! I understand her most precious friendships left behind are still shattered and her own family is now left heartbroken... this truly is Still into March of 2021 .. I am just like all of you !

We were incredibly touched by your story. We send our deepest condolences. We sadly are going through a very similar experience having just lost our 17 year-old son. We were completely blindsided. Your sharing of Alex's story is helping us through this difficult time. Thank you. You are in our thoughts also.

Alexandra I've heard her name and her story last year. Her name is in my mind. I know I'm late but 'better late than never' because 'she is gone but not forgotten'. She will always be remembered and missed by all. I'm so sorry to her family and I know that feeling they've gone through. I feel related to her diary she wrote, I wrote the same thoughts and feelings as her.

So sorry for your loss sending prayers for you and your family

Dear Valoras,

My husband and I saw the CBS Sunday morning piece on Alexandra. Tonight, at our dinner table I played the piece for our sons Joel 14, and Mitch 16. We have 3 sons and their oldest brother Grant is an engineer for Honda. All are straight A students, social and in sports, STUCO, gifted etc. Recently, our middle son expressed feeling pressure and feelings of "not measuring up", he is very similar to your daughter. A friend and he were passing notes to one another and...

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Valoras, My condolences for the loss of your daughter, Alexandra. I pray that God will give you comfort, grace and strength in your time of sorrow. May you look to the Lord as He will see you through tragedy and all other difficulty.
