Although I hadn't seen Melissa for 15 years, she was always in my thoughts and in my heart. She was and will always be one of my best friends. She was my labor coach and was the first one to hold my baby, who is now 16 years old. I hadn't seen Amanda since she was about 6 years old until this tragic time, and she has grown into such a beautiful young woman. My thoughts and prayers are with all of Melissa's children, family and all of the rest of us who will always love and miss her. If ever I can do anything for any of you, don't hesitate to contact me.

Melissa came bounding into my life at a time when I desparately needed a friend. The minute we met, I knew we'd be friends and that she was someone WORTH knowing. She taught me so much about life and myself. I would not be who I am today if it hadn't been for her. She was beautiful in so many, many ways. Her friendship has never left my heart and never will. I am a better person for having known her. I only hope one day we wil meet again and I can tell her how much she meant to me.
Thank you... for her.

I'm very sorry to hear about Melissa, last time I seen her was when Amanda was a few months old. I remember her as being a sweet young girl that took on the early responsibility of being a young mother. It's sad for me that my family and her didn't keep in touch. I hope and pray that all her family will someday find an inner peace within themselves and that her memories will make them strong for the rest of their lives.
God Bless all of you,

José Pabón (Vidal's older brother and Amanda's uncle)

I LOVE YOU Amanda, stay strong "Baby Girl".

It meant so very much to me to come out and mourn with our family and friends. There was no other place for me to be during this time than by your side. And, by hers.

Things will never be the same without her in this world, but it is a better place for her having been a part of it.

God rest her beautiful soul.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Melissa was such a nice fun person. She is the type of person you could connect with immediately and felt like you had known her for years. She was a great dancer. My heart goes out to all of you, her family.

When I remember Melissa, I think of her laughter. She was always smiling, laughing, and joking around. Growing up, going to school and spending time with her and her family was always so much fun. Melissa and Mary were good friends to me and I will never forget that. Time and circumstances can take people apart, but memories cannot be erased. May God bless Melissa's family during this time.
