I've never been a big social media person. When I saw Paige had been offline for years, I went looking. It was soul crushing to learn she was gone. She was so talented, sweet, adventurous, and funny. So full of love and such a joy. Words cant express how much I will miss her. She's never been out of my thought though she is out of reach. Ill cherish the memories we shared. Love you to bits Cutesyfun. -Antinam

Paige is someone who was very important to me I still cant believe shes gone there is no words that I can express how I feel. Paige was the first person I ever fell in love with and every year I would wish her happy birthday. I never forgot her she was something amazing. I dont know how to take that shes gone and I just found out about it today. I loved Paige with all my heart and I hope that shes in a better place. My condolences to the family I know it must be hard she was someone very special and she is with the lord. Stay happy Paige I know your in a better place and I will do my best to live for you thank you for showing me what it is to love someone. You friend Matt

Dear Joseph, Cecilia and Kevin,

I am a friend of Paige and I recently learned of this heartbreaking news. I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Paige. She was an amazing girl with a truly wonderful personality and I enjoyed the times that we had connected together through our games. I am happy to have got to meet her in person and have her as my friend, and I am extremely sad to have not been able to see her one last time.

My thoughts and deepest condolences are with you, your family, and Paige's friends and loved ones.

Joseph and Cecilia...what a sweet and beautiful girl. I am so lucky to have had the opportunity to know her. To say that my heart is with you doesn't even begin to tell you how deeply my heart hurts for you. Just last week I was able to see Paige's pretty smile and I feel so fortunate for that gift. What a gentle soul.
