Dear Sierra,
You came to this earth as an angel, also left our lives as an angel. You made your mother who she is today just from knowing you in the unfair, short time she was allowed. You are an angel, a gift that I personally am grateful that I was allowed to meet you. I saw the joy in your mothers eyes and also your grandfathers eyes when they looked at you.
I am heartbroken for my friend and her family that will always feel a void now that you have taken your wings in heaven.
I am however comforted knowing you are a constant angel watching over my dear friend, your mom Melanie.
God bless your family and please send peace to all that knew you and loved you, even if it was just for a moment.
