Destiny, it's taken me this long to get the strength to sign that guestbook... You were my bestfriend my sister my whole heart and almost four years later it feels so weird not having you next to me. There's no words that can explain how much I love you, what I would do for one of your hugs right now. I will continue being strong, for you. I will miss you forever, thank you for being the best all these years. I would say goodbye but this isn't goodbye I will see you again.
RIP
