| I have added a link to the video that was played at Ali's funeral. It may give you a small sense of who she was and why we miss her so much. I will keep it on the Links to the left also. http://www.dvfsite.com/aliweb... |

I don't know how you can still write about this. I wrote about her on my xanga the day it happened, and i haven't been able to write any more yet. It hurts me so much to think about it, I just can't even put it into words. Ali meant so, so, much to me, and I didn't even get to say goodbye. There was one day when my mom and I were driving around and we decided to drive past your house, this was before SHE went home. We slowed. Then, just before my mom stoped to pull in to your driveway, I told her to leave you guys alone and to keep driving. If only I would have let my mom stop, I could have said goodbye. That's all that I think about, If Only. I'm so thankful that you helped me accept the fact that now, SHE is without pain and suffering. And that she is better off where she is at now then when she was here. I love you so much and would love it if you could write me back. I'm always praying.
Your admirer,
Jeremiah VanderMolen

Jeremiah, after my dad had a heart attack everyone said, "he's fine" and so I took care of a few things in the morning before I went to Ohio. Well, by the time I got there he had died. I know that it's something that can make you feel guilty... but it shouldn't. That is just the way it happened and I can't change it. Jeremiah, I'm so glad that you didn't come see her. Even the Ali you saw in the funeral home looked better than the ALi lying in the bed. The Ali in the bed did not look like herself at all, she didn't recognize people and for a while she didn't even speak. I prefer that you remember her as she was. I KNOW that she would have preferred that too. I think you were right not to stop. It is inevitable that we will miss her so much it hurts... but, I try to remember that she will never hurt, or be frightened or disappointed ever again. I write about her even though it hurts because in some way it makes me feel close to her. It's been a hard week. Thank you for being such a good friend. Thank you for having such a wonderful heart. You are a very special person and I love you.

Always the same soft and sweet smile on her lips. Always something more going on in that mind of hers. I feel like I got to meet Ali today. Thank you for sharing this.
