Every single day ive been so proud of you and the woman you had become. You were smart, kind and strong. The love you gave me always brought me back from any dark place and I will always be forever grateful for knowing and loving you. You will always be my shining light. Im forever sorry i cant be there for you now like you always were for me. I just hope I can make you proud.

  22. A gorgeous human, gone way too soon. Thank you for always being a smiling face with an awesome sense of humour. Your kindness knew no bounds and I am so lucky to to have had you in my classroom. I will always remember our inside jokes (I promise, cows are adorable!) and your appreciation of my memes, even when they were cringe.
