My deepest condolenses go out to the entire Valdez family. As a young girl I went to school with Giselle and we became the best of friends. As we drifted to different schools we lost regretably lost contact. I remember Giselle as a warm-hearted, full-of-life, very loving person and she is greatly missed.

My sincere condolences - Giselle touched a lot of lives. Her smile, bubbly and enthusiastic personality were only two of the many special qualities that drew people to her and made people want to be around her. May your family find strength and know that the support and love of family and friends will always be there for you.

My sincerest condolences to the entire family of Giselle, on the lost of your beloved daughter, sister and granddaughter. My heart cried when I heard the news, you don't know me but as a mother with the same age as her I feel your heart ache of losing her. I cannot imagine the pain you are enduring right now but with the help of everyone praying for her and for you that you may find peace and forgiveness knowing that she was in the hands of GOD. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Omar and Glenna, I wish you and your family the joy of remembering such a beautiful, happy, caring daughter.
She always thought of everyone first. She showed my boys how cool older sisters could be, she showed me how one person could make such an impact, by just being herself, a ray of sunshine always followed her. We are all hit so very hard by losing her, our community will never be the same.
May god be with her in heaven, and give her wings to soar and watch over those she loved.
May god be with family and friends.

Our thoughts go out to you and your family.

God Bless

Our deepest sympathies are with you all at this most difficult time. Though we did not know Giselle, I suspect our son, Evan Grykuliak may have. He attended Westmin Junior High, as well as, Ross Shep. Many of his friends knew her. What a bright, beautiful young lady she was and she touched many people's lives in such a postive way.

If there is anything we can do, please do not hesitate to ask. From a family that can truly empathize with you after the loss of our son, we are here for you.

With understanding,
Marlin Johnson & Diana Grykuliak
