I am student at Lockney High School. My name is Margarita Valles. Recently, I was at a track meet in Hale Center and I was supposed to run against Danielle. In honor of her, even though I didn't know her, me and my classmates wore a ribbon in remembrance of her. It is very wierd that she was not there. I hope that you and your family are well and may God bless all of you.

Toby, Donna and family, we can't begin to express our feelings at the loss of your daughter. As most parents we're sure you didn't expect to be burying one of your children and the pain you feel must be excruciating. We wish that we had known her better but time and distance kept this from happening. She will be missed by all her friends and family especially those individuals whose lives she touched. You are in our prayers and remember that God will help you through this.
