I met Monique and her sister Tracy along with their Mother Barbara in Colorado Springs Co. My heart is sadden right now, for the longest i had been looking for Monique the last time we spoke she lived in Marietta Ga. My deepest sympathy goes out to all her family members, she truly was the sweetest person i ever met she was so fun, outgoing and at times silly but i loved her like a sister. Monique i really wish we could have seen each other here on earth. I'll be looking for you in our Fathers house one day. Much love MoMo.
