Dear Raili, you are still so missed. The Meadows family will always wish you were here in person. But, we know that you are with us in spirit.

She helped me pick up my pace. Lively and loving are two words that come to mind when I think of her. She will truly be missed by so many people. We are lucky to...

My thoughts and prayers go out to Raili's wonderful family. Raili was the brightest person I know. We met in High school and have been friends ever since. Scott and Raili made such a great couple.
I wish all of her loved ones all the strength to cope with her tragic loss.
