Jolene, I remember meeting you all the way back in 6th grade. You were a fighter then and you'll always be remembered in my heart as a fighter because you believed in what was right. I can't believe that you're gone, but the Lord knows exactly what He's doing. Although we mourn your passing from this earthly life, Heaven is celebrating as another angel has gotten their wings. Thanks for teaching me that in order to fight, you have to appreciate the journey-not just the destination. My prayer to your family during this painful time is that they will begin to laugh and smile and remember who you were not just to your friends-but to your them as well. You were a blessing to so many people, and although we didn't hang out that much after high school, you never forget those who helped push you along in life. Thanks for your words of truth, because although I didn't always want to hear it, words are necessary for growth. No more pain, no more sorrow, and no more suffering. You are loved and WILL be missed...Until we meet again...
