This is a long time coming for me to write. I dated Heidi at Harvard. She was so beautiful, not just in her looks, but in her core, her heart. Even many years now since she passed I still think of her. Her amazing smile and spirit which I treasure till this day. She is a bright light that still burns today.

My sweet, darling daughter. There are no words to say how much I miss you. There is such a void in our lives without you. It seems impossible that five years have passed. And you will never be forgotten by your family or friends. I love you Heidi.

I will never forget you or the words of wisdom you shared. You taught me so much - you cannot imagine. Not only by what you said, but by how you lived. Thank you for the impact you had on my life. Always remembered...

Heidi:
It's been two years since you've left us and my heart hurts; but as you did last year, you've given us a beautiful day to remember you by.
I miss you every day and I want you to know that your life has made mine more important, because I carry your memories with me. Thanks for the wonderful blessing. I miss you terribly.
Love, Maisa

Heidi,
It is so hard to believe it has been a year since you were taken from all of us who love and care about you.
I have missed you so much this past year! There were so many special days and events that you had always made even more special for me, like Grand Old Day, our birthdays, our parties, St. Patrick's Day, concerts... But, what I miss most is just being able to pick up the phone and call you or stop over and hang out together.
I will...

Huber Family,
I just wanted to say I am so sorry for the loss of Heidi.
I knew Heidi as a friend back in the late 80s early 90s at Augsberg College/parties.
I always remembered her smile and laughter. Even thou I lost track of her many years ago, I would ask about her when I caught up with a mutual friend from way back when. Thats why it was such a shock to me, when last week in Calif. I caught up with old friends and I asked whats up with Heidi and they told me...
