You have touched so many hearts and minds with your energetic spirit. I am saddened by the thought of never being able to see your wonderful smile that would so often greet us. In the same token I am somewhat relieved that you will no longer have to suffer or be in any more pain. I am comforted knowing you are in a better place and that one day, we will meet again. You will be missed by everyone, but more specifically, by Michael and myself. We love and miss you!!!

Knowing your heart makes this moment easier for me. Knowing your outer happiness and your inner pain helps me through. Knowing you suffer no more gives me peace. If we all try as hard as you to love one another; the message we gain from our lost will help all of us be better people. With all of my love.
