when me and Cissy played Monopoly once, she ripped the dollar in half because she misunderstood a card. We laughed so hard we cried. I will never forget her laugh, and the way she made me laugh with her. I love her

my aunt was the sweetest woman i know. she raised me well, she had helped my grandparents & parents with raising not only me but my two sisters as well. she helped me when i was little, i had difficulty eating due to eating too much or eating too sweet.. so she helped me with eating a lot. she helped me get back to drinking water by buying me Cirkul bottles (i have 3) and she helped with getting the flavours for me. im gonna miss her a lot, but i think i'm gonna be okay. because i may not...

You’ve gone by many names in the time we’ve known one another: cousin, sister, roommate, Cassandra, Cissy, but most importantly FRIEND. At that, you were great. I will miss you and am grateful for the time we had. See you on the other side.
