My memories of Davika are all good. She is a giving loving person like her mom. She was always smiling and sharing with all of her girl scouts. My most recent memory is seeing Juanita, Davika and Christiana Rose at the fireworks. My fondest memory of Davika is when she had so much fun directing the karoke for all the little ones.

Love, and sympathy -

Davika was one of my best friends. I have known her since we were little kids, when we started going to summer camp together. When I was sad, she always made me smile. I give my condolences to her family in this hard time. Rest in peace Davika, I'll miss you.

Santana/Ruiz families my heart crys for your loss. Davika has made such a great impression on people in her short years that she will be remembered always. She brought to all of us the gift of Christiana Rose who will no doubt carry out her mothers legacy. Davika will be missed forever but will continue to live in our hearts and memories. God bless to all of you.

I have wonderful memories of Davika, I've known her and her family since she was little and her mom and I were picking up our daughters at summer camp where her and Jessica became the best of friends. Also many fun times at Chesley Pool keeping cool during the summer. She was like another big sister to my youngest daughter Jeannette.

My deepest condolences to her family, you are in my prayers always.

Davika, I will miss your wonderful smile. Rest in peace sweet lady, I love you
