I know that we were never too close, but you were a great cousin and wonderful person. On the special occasions and holidays that I'd see you, you always seemed happy. And that's how I want to remember you. But I wish that I could have seen you just once when you were sick, to tell you how much I loved you and that I prayed for you everyday. I'll always remember you as my cool cousin who did more in her 27 years than most people will ever do in their lives. I love you and miss you.
