Dev-the tears won't and haven't stopped falling since I heard that I will no longer have your laugh, your silliness, and your voice on the other end of phone whenever we needed eachother. I add this candle for you, as we quickly connected and became friends-the lifelong kind-the friendship that many were jealous of...."haters gonna hate" lol.
You were one of a kind in so many amazing ways my friend and will forever be in my heart. All of the memories...laughs, cries, adventures and yes, arguments that we had. You will forever be in my heart my friend There isn't a day that goes by that I don't yearn for justice to be served to whoever took you far too soon from all who truly loved you. I know you are guiding me until we meet again. Xoxo

Unfortunately I did not personally know Devan well, but I do know that she was well liked and a great part of the ESS - Alaska Railroad family. She was a great employee and I wish for all the peace in the world to Devan, and everyone that knew her.

My Dearest Devi, I love you so very much, I am so very thankful to have had you as my sister. I will forever cherish all of the memories of our time together here in this place. My heart aches and is truly broken. I hope that with time I will not focus on how you were taken from us, but how you lived your life, and Live you did!!! You were taken from us to young and to soon. I can't make sense of your being taken from us...because it just doesn't. I will miss so many many things about you, way to many to list here. I can still hear the sound of your laughter, I can still see your beautiful smile, and yes time and distance never mattered and never will. Because I will always carry you with me baby girl. Like I said in my letter to you,.. I won't say goodbye only that I will see you later. I know that one day we will be together again! Sore high as a new adventure is just beginning for you.
Love Forever & Always♡
Your Sissy, Lia Xoxoxo xoxo xoxo

There simply aren't enough words to describe how knowing you has affected my life and everyone else's life. Your bright bubbly smile and infectious laugh remain with me today and always. We had our ups, downs, laughs and cries. I think of you every day and you will forever be missed. Thank you for coming into my life. You have fought me more than I can express. I will love you for always Devan.

Devan was a great soul. We were co- workers at Casa Del Sol. But more than that, we were good friends. Best memories of her include hula hoop contests on the deck many sunny days in a row. I will always cherish coming to know her. she was good people.

Devan was an amazing person.I only knew her for a short time while we were both working at the Salmon bake but she was amazing and kind and I will always remember her for that. She always took the time to chat with me and she always made me laugh. She will be very missed.

It's sad news to hear that she's gone! This earth just couldn't contain her awesomeness, so were lucky enough to have her watching after each us! I met dev in Denali in 2010, from the start I knew this girl was incredible. Always smiling, telling jokes, a wild heart,always daring with a free spirit, and a heart of gold. She never passed judgement w me, and even though we werent close the past few years I knew I could count on her, if i ever called upon her. Her mom raised a tough cookie, and should be proud of how Dev touched the lives of many! Thank you Dev for the memories!!! I love you!

I miss you. The way you light up a room your hugs and even if it was just bumping into each other by chance the way you'd stop and have a genuine how are you type talk! I'm so glad I got to see you at darwins before you left state. I might not have let that hug end if I knew it would've been the last though.

Devan was a sweet person. I came to know her when i was a customer at Casa Del Sol in Girdwood. She was often not very serious about the job, but it was always a pleasure to get my beers and food from her and exchange a few silly comments, back and forth. She brightened many people's days, there, and elsewhere. Devan was well appreciated in Girdwood, and unfortunately many people will be sad to discover her passing...but that's only because she was a spark of smiles and lightness for so many. She had told me she was battling an illness...still, she seemed so vibrant and that's how I will always remember her. A smiling light.

I didn't loos a friend as much as I lost a partner in crime for the rest of my life. you meant so much to everyone who knew you and we will all miss you incredibly. We where not prepared for your loss but you made us all stronger for knowing you and I guess in your own way you made us strong enough to deal with anything & everything just knowing you. you will be missed and we will never forget you. I will always remember with a smile when you dropped the lotion on my face when I took you to the hospital & I wouldn't leave you there alone and slept on the floor in your room & picking the Alaskan wild flowers to brighten your mood & spirits or the great Halloween party @ Maxine's in Girdwood. the crime spree may be over partner but we are all enjoying the spoils of the crime that was just knowing you. I love you & I know you loved us all...I will see you when I see you but rest well for now until we meet again. xoxoxo Pumpkin!
Girdwood will always be your spirits playground.. May the Northern Lights always shine for you!

You were only 17 when your car tires went flat in front of my house. I never knew what an impact that day would have on my life and my kids.who would guess I would meet your mom in that same place. You w ere always there when I needed advice. I love you as a father and can't repay you. The world lost a great human being. Heaven gained another beautiful angel. I will miss you until I see my Devan in heaven.
