    Debbie & Scott: There are just no words for the loss of a child. We are so sorry for your loss, and sad that your family is going through this terrible pain. Valerie was a beautiful girl, and cancer is an unfair disease, with which no one should have to deal, especially children. We hope with time, your family can know healing, and that all your happy times together will bring you some comfort. Sending you hugs & love! xx
    Nic, Mike, & Eavan

    This is a direct quote story about Valerie and a message to her from her 7 year-old classmate friend Alexander G. of St Martin School:

    “Valerie is a cute girl. I liked sitting by her. She is very, very nice and friendly. I Love her.
    I liked playing with her.
    Have a nice life in your new world.
    Rest in peace.

    I love you and miss you…
    Your friend Alexander Gibson.

    You are the only one who knows my full name.

    Hugs…

    Tell me how God look like, in my dreams “
