Dear Katie and Kim,

I'm so incredibly sorry. Alex was my childhood, and I will never forget our cherished memories together. She was one of the strongest, politest, and funniest people I knew. She will always hold a very special place in my heart. I will always think of her. I know she is at peace with Barb.

All My Love,
Hilary
