I came across Vanessa by accident while looking for another person. My heart aches for this family 10 years on at the loss of a beloved daughter, sister, grandchild. She was beautiful and I'm sure still dearly missed.

I am so sorry to hear about your loss. Your heart is broken with her gone I'm sure. But if I may, leave you with something that should help. Your baby girl is in Heaven right now and happy and healthy in God's hands. She will not have to worry about this scary world or grow up in it. May God be with you in this time of need and sorrow.
