I am so sorry to hear about your beautiful daughter's passing. I have only met you through work a couple of times, but I have a daughter about the same age as Paula. My heart hurts so deeply for you and your loved ones. No words are adequate but I pray the happy memories will help sustain you until you see her again. God bless.
