I played soccer with her when I was younger, when she first came on the team I knew I wanted to be her friend, ever since than we became friends and we were partners for western Lehigh, we would look at each other and laugh when we didn´t know what we were doing for a drill, then I left the team and then we saw each other at a tournament, we were playing against each other and we both were being aggressive and fouled each other, at the end when we were finished we looked at each other smiled,laughed,and do the little dab up when you finish the game, you made me feel like I had someone when it came to soccer you made me feel included and didn´t make me feel left out much love for you and rest easy and keep playing soccer for me up there ,much love for you angel

I am so lucky to have known this young lady and watch her grow up along side her awesome family with two great sisters and lots and lots of loving family . She had the cutest little squeaky voice when she was little and was always shy but I could get her to tell me how she wanted her hair while she was in my salon . I saw Mia and her sister a few weeks back and she was excited about getting her drivers license . We need to take the time and tell each other how we feel as often as we can cause tomorrow is not promised and life is so very precious .. We lost an exceptional young lady Sunday as Heaven gained an Angel This family is close knit but strong . RIP Mia Grace.. You will be deeply missed

Cousins Chris and Michelle and your family and friends who deeply loved and will miss Mia.
In the greatest depths of grief, I can only reach for solace from the Word of God to bring you comfort. 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.
For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep.
For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God.
And the dead in Christ will rise first.
Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.
And thus we shall always be with the Lord.
Therefore comfort one another with these words.
----------
Our prayers are with you.
Run to Jesus and not away from Him for He came to heal the broken hearted and to bind up their wounds.
