Losing a friend is incredibly difficult, and my thoughts are with you during this time. Remembering shared moments can bring comfort and help celebrate a life lived. Cherishing those memories, whether from school days or online connections, can keep their spirit alive. It's important to allow yourself time to grieve and process this loss. May you find strength and support in the midst of sorrow.
