The loss we all feel is unexplainable and the pain we feel is immense. You are the favorite, you are the "wash belly", the "other drop of water", the bestie, the one to rely on, the one who will listen, and the one who loves no matter what. Your humility and the impact you made on everyone's lives is immeasurable. You had charm, spunk, attitude, class, humor, ambition, and charisma. Roxy, the legacy you left is our mission to continue. The void we all feel can never be filled but we promise to always keep the memory and essence of you with us. You will be missed immensely.
