Raven,

Our lives entertained so much from years in Angelsea to long past WHS. I can relive each memory on my mind. Maybe the most poignant is your 25th birthday. You wrote me a letter that was pages and pages of your being a quarter of a century years old. I read it with laughter and joy in my heart. Oh dear Raven, you are only 25.
Now, dear friend, you are amongst the Communion of Saints. You see and hear all that we back here on earth are thinking. So let me pray, please...Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord and may perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed rest in peace. Amen

Just one funny...the night that JC and I showed up to bring you a computer. It's our memory.

My love to you dear friend,

Barbara Trivelli

Raven was a classmate of mine from 5th grade thru the years at WHS. She was always a kind and caring person, and the world is a lesser place with her passing.
