You Will Be Missed, but Never Forgotten

Sometimes, you don't realize how important someone is until they are gone. She made a difference in all of our lives, her heart was glowing brighter than any star in the night ever could, and now, she has left this Earth, now in the hands of God, being taken care of, watching down on us as if a guardian angel from the Heaven that lays above. Although your life was short-lived, you affected everyone you knew. I remember when we met in the ninth grade, and I have remembered the smile of happiness you always had on your face every time I saw you. What you went through, fighting every day to beat this terrible disease, it is the bravest thing anyone can do. Christa, the last time we spoke, I told you: “I’ll talk to you later.” I regret that I never will have that chance, at least, not for a long time. In your absence, there will be a void, a lapse in the flow of things, as I’ll never see your smile or speak to you before making it to Computer Graphics.

Christa, I know you are in a much happier place right now, free of this horrible disease. When I came back to school this past Monday from being gone a while and I saw your picture on the announcements, I feared the worst, but I was hopeful it wasn’t, I was unsure of what had happened. I know you’re in God’s arms right now, wanting us to live our lives. Although you are no longer with us, you will be in our hearts, our thoughts, and our prayers. I thank God for giving me the chance to meet you, and may God bless Christa’s family. You will be missed, but never forgotten.
