To Ebonie's Family, I am so deeply sorry for your loss. I had the privilege of once working with Ebonie, and I just want you to know how much she meant to those of us who knew her.
She wasn't just a kind coworker-she was truly one of the sweetest, most genuine people l've ever met. Ebonie had a calm and caring presence that made people feel safe and appreciated. She always carried herself with such grace and warmth.
Whether it was her smile, her thoughtfulness, or the quiet way she made someone's day better without even trying-she had a beautiful spirit that touched everyone around her.
Please know that my heart is with vou during this incredibly difficult time. I hope you can find some comfort in knowing how loved and respected she was
-and how truly missed she will be. With My Deepest Sympathy
