Rest in Peace Tasha

Have you ever met somebody who had the ability to make everyone they met fall completely in love with them? I have, her name was Tasha. She was, and always will be, the most genuine and wise soul I have ever known. Everybody who came in contact with her stepped away with a smile on their face and a joy in their souls they had never known before. You may think I exaggerate, but I worry my words are not strong enough to convince you.

Although I knew Tasha for only a relatively short time. For a piece of that time, I had the extreme privilege of being as important to her, as she was to everyone who knew her. That is something I will never forget. Whether or not I was, or ever will be, worthy of that....I don't know. I don't think I was. Tasha may have thought so, but that's part of what made her so amazing.

To Tasha, every person, every moment, was precious and worthy of all her energies and love. I cannot think of a better example of someone who put their heart and soul and love into everything they did, than Tasha.

It's not right, it's not fair. Nobody deserves this, least of all her. I wouldn't be alone in saying that were I given the choice of her life or mine....hers would take precedence.

The world has lost something it already had far too little of.
