    " I have know her sence she was in Jr high running with my god sister. She was allways a wonderful person and very smart. My heart goes out to the Hughes family. To be "absent from the body" is to be "present with the Lord" (2 Cor. 5:8). "

    " I do not know this woman, but saw her picture, and thought what a beautiful person to die at such a young age. May she rest in peace.

    To the family, retain her memories, and cherish in the good times you had with her. Please make sure that her son remembers her and knows that his Mommy is looking out for him for the rest of his life. "
