May the lord be with Chanel's family and friends in this time of sadness. I have known Chanel since we were kids and she was a wonderful person always smiling and laughing, this is truly a devastating loss, she will be missed. I know that it's difficult today to see beyond the sorrow may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow. In our hearts Chanel has become a star in the sky, which are openings in Heaven where the love of our lost ones pours through and shines down upon us to let us know they are happy.
