This will be our 5th Christmas without you. Yes, we still miss you and cherish our thoughts/remembrances of you. I continue to light candles for you in any church I visit in other countries. Italy, Greece, Turkey, Spain, Morocco, France. I feel I leave a little of your thoughts and magic there. I love you. Mom

I love you my sweet lovely Laya. Leslie lights candles for you in Florence and I have lit candles for you both here and in England. I send you emails too, I wonder where they go?

Dear Safouh and family,
I finally went in to the pharmacy to ask about her as i did not know that Laya was gone until you told me. There are no words to express what i feel today The world lost a beautiful soul. Laya, thank you for the caring, for the laughter, for the red rain hat you picked out for me, for your bright presence that even the gloomiest Point Grey winterday could dampen. You were a gift!

As the one year anniversary of Laya's death approaches, Paul's and my thoughts are with you everyday. Reading the condolences and reflecting on her life, it is apparent that she was loved and supported by family and friends. She could not have had a more giving family. Our hearts are full of sadness for your loss.
All our love, Bea & Paul

She was Leah to me, I missed getting to know Laya and it will always be my biggest regret. She was beautiful inside and out. She was my best friend when we were the 'annoying little sisters' to our big sis's. The 'silly girls' to our loving parents.
We were both to celebrate our 30th birthdays this month. And I sincerely wish we were somehow sharing it together, but she will be on my mind. She is never far from my thoughts as is her wonderful family. You always treated me...
