I did not know Kayla but I pray that her loss was not in vain. I pray that her story makes others value life more than ever and that we should never take a single day for granted. I think Kayla knew that just from hearing stories about her. My prayers are with the Castro family during their sorrow. May you find the strength you need in the coming days to fill your heart with peace.

To my sweet Kayla -
You were a wonderful student with a beautiful soul and you'll always hold a special place in my heart. We shared many great moments and I was looking forward to so many more. How I loved having you in my class - and how I will miss you. I'll never forget the funny look on your face when you bit into those Veggie Burgers we made in cooking class last week... and how you left yours as a "gift" on my desk. I feel the loss of you so profoundly. My heart will never be the same. I love you dearly, "Ms. S" at HHS

There is a country song by Gary Allan that says "Life aint always beautiful, but it's a bueatiful life." I am confident knowing that our kids bring so much beauty to life. They are our most precious commodity. My daughter, Savannah Moore, and the rest of her friends will forever miss her. May Kayla's memory live on forever and may your family find peace, strength and courage. Hardaway Students have suffered a tremendous loss within a 6 month time period with the loss of Conner Weeks and now Kayla and they have yet again pulled together like a huge family, and Zee your strength.....is.....I am in awe especially when Jimbo quoted you on facebook by stating "at some point in time everyone leaves you, even your shadow, but God never leaves you." Each time you feel the sun shine, I pray you know that it's Kayla looking down on you smiling from Heaven in peace with our heavenly father. Peace be with you all.

My dear Zee..sometimes in this life we must loose someone very dear to us in order to have a guardian angel to watch over us..not beside us. Kayla took the torch.. I know now you have a guardian angel and that puts peace in my heart..I will miss her walking in the salon..eating her sunflower seeds and rolling her eyes at you.. I know how much she meant to you and I know how much you meant to her..This is a flight we all will take sooner or later..Believe and know as hard as it seems..she is in an awesome place hovering over you and her loved ones..Honor her and live the way she would want..A lifetime in heaven is nothing more than a minute on Earth.. Be strong and she will visit you in your dreams..Kayla..I love you and admire you even more for taking the torch..sweet girl..God blessed you and gave you eternal life that some people may not understand..but I do..and trust in every decision he makes..Love and miss you already..Scott

Zee, I am so sorry to hear about your lost. My heart goes out to you and your family.I know it is hard to understand why this has happened. Having lost my daughter at 18,I can say I know how you feel but I also know GOD's timing is not our timing. When we are conceived our destiny is determine.GOD put Kayla here for 15 years. He doesn't tell us how we are going. We are all going when he calls.GOD needed another angel and precious rose. Be thankful for the years you had with her, the memories you have made and the lives she has touch.It has been 24 yrs for me and it seems like yesterday but we laugh and talk about her as though she is here...Praying for you that GOD will give you strength , mercy and grace everyday as you go through your lost. Love you and Praying for you and your family. If you need snything please call.
