    My son considered Alivia a friend. They often sat together at the same lunch table and spent much of that time laughing.

    I saw Alivia every day in the MS Cafeteria and in just those short times, I knew she was wonderful…sarcastic, quick witted, and so observant. I told her I thought humor was a big sign of intelligence and she often made my day. I looked forward to the all-too-brief conversations and will miss her sparkling eyes and mischievous smile.

    The world lost some laughter this week. We are heartbroken for your family. Peace. -Kim

  62. My deepest condolences to your whole family. I loved letting Alivia leave the computer lab at Longfellow to go give you a big hug in the hallway. She always had a big smile on her face when she saw you. I will always remember her that way. Smiling and skipping back down the hall. She was a good girl, and I told you that so many times. She truly was. But you know that. Again, I am truly sorry for the loss of Alivia. May she rest in peace.

    Rest In Peace, you beautiful angel.

    I’m so incredibly sorry for the unfathomable loss of your beautiful Alivia. I’m sending you so much love, so many thoughts, prayers and cuddles from Australia. Thank you so very much for sharing your story.
