I was extremely saddened by the passing of Lyrita. She was in my homeroom, and we had lockers next to each other. I would see, and talk to her every school day during our locker visits. She always had a smile, and was one of the best people that I have ever met. She will be missed very much by her family, friends. Rest peacefully my dear friend.
