You should have been there

Krista, it’s hard to believe you’ve been gone for two years because your loss still weighs heavily upon me. On June 18, I attended the South County Secondary School commencement and my tears were not shed for my child’s accomplishments. Instead, my tears flowed during the ceremony as you were being remembered in speeches given by your peers. You should have been there and your family should have been there, because just like your 2010 classmates, you had hopes, dreams, and goals.
