Dearest Adina,
Though through the years we have not really bonded. You, are still my neighbor, the one person who i can always rely on for help. But now you have passed away. In 8th grade, going to 4th period was a joy to see you bright smiling face when you would come to the class early to say hi to me. I never really appreciated it, until now. Its come for me to realize that you were the best thing to ever happen to any of us. Your smile could light up a room. Everytime i saw you around campus you always had a smile on your face. I always wondered how you got through your days. How you were able to handle yourself through all kinds on situations. Adina, you made the best of everything. Even if you hated the thought of it on the inside, your outside approach made it seem like you were happy. If i could have talked to you one last time before u left. I would have to tell you how much u ment to the neighborhood. Everyone knew you, and loved you. Nadav and your dad would always come over to play basketball infront of my house and you would come along just to see katie and rex ( my dogs). You loved animals more than the world. You never thought about yourself. You were always thinking of others. When i'd walk into 4th period and you were waiting at ur desk for me to bring over the podeuim, you always asked me nicesly and it was always appreciated when i was haveing a bad day. You always asked me if there was anything you could do to help me out on the computer or grade papers( even though you weren't allowed too). I will cherish our memories together forever. I know you're in a better place now. A place where you can walk, run, jump, do anything possible that you could not be able to do when you were with us. Today, at your funeral there were over 400 people there. Crying at this huge lose. I too was crying. It made me take my life for granted and how many times we say to ourselfs, " I hate my life." Well Adina, you made me realize that no one should say that. WE are all fortunate to have what we have. To be able to walk, run, ect... Don't ever forget that you are the one who made every single person in that chaple, all 400 of them realize, that they too, need to reflect on themselfs. May you rest in peace. I will always remember you. No matter what. You are my rolemodle, and hero. I love you.
