She is one of my dearest friends. I am 14 and we have been friends since I was 7. Half of my life was devoted to Kali. We met at church and were best friends ever since. When I found out she passed, I could not contain my tears. We had so many of the best memories together. One being us baking cupcakes in her house and eating them with her family. She was my neighbor since the day she moved in that house. I was just a little girl when I met her. She was a little girl too. We grew together. I love her. She was a good, perfect, Christian girl. We bonded over baking and reading the bible. We will always look up at her in love and peace. This was a tragedy and she was far too young. We love you Kali.

Kali was a sweet, kind, beautiful person and I didnt think I would walk past someone at school and think that I wouldn't see her the next day at school. Kali was an amazing person and I hope that her parents are proud that they raised and amazing young lady. I may have never said anything too Kali but she was a good person. In loving memory Kali Eskew.

I love you so much girl. Im so honored to have had such an amazing best friend during the most memorable time of my life. Its truly a crime that your sweet laugh and big personality isn't with us anymore. I hate to think of a world without you in it; and though I wasn't around for as long as so many other amazing friends and family you've got, you have made a great impact on me and shown me the purest form of love in just being a genuine, loving friend. You will be remembered and celebrated to no end. We love you

hey sweet girl. i´m so sorry i didn´t reach out more when you were still here with us. i love you and i always have. you were a big part in my childhood and for that i must thank you. i remember our friendship like it was yesterday. im sorry we drifted apart but you showed me what a true friendship is supposed to look like. i keep seeing that you were active and it breaks me to know its not actually you. i should´ve reached out and told you i was always here if you needed anything. i know that your family will see this and i want them to take as what an impact their amazing daughter had on not just me but many others. i miss and love you kali. i´m so sorry this happened. i love you
