Another year without you and it doesn't get any easier. Memories of us come flooding back and it's just like yesterday that we was at Nannys playing in the garden or just running around the yard. You was my 1st best friend and you will forever hold a big part of my heart. Thank you for loving me for being the outcast that I was. Keep on living that beautiful live and keep watching over all of us. I love you Jo

In high school I spent alot of time with Autumn, Ashley & Karen hanging out at their house. Her mom was often decorating, Autumn and I would chill out bonding on the couch and I remember Ashley as a joy to be around, often cracking jokes and making everyone laugh. I am grateful for the memories we shared. My heart goes out to Karen, Autumn and their entire family...May God wrap his arms around them during their time of loss♥
