Hello Vanessa. Remember me? We were in 2D Design together, before I left SCAD. We've talked a few times and we hung out in the hall once. Your art was beautiful, and so were you. I'm sorry I won't be able to make it to your service, and I'm sorry I won't be seeing you the next time I visit SCAD. Rest in peace.

Dearest Vanessa, you will always be in my heart and I will never forget all of the times we shared. We started hanging out more towards the end of the school year, and I am so glad that I got to spend my last moments at SCAD with you. You were so nice to me and brought so much joy and confidence to my life. God bless. I love you.
