Beautiful Angel.
On 11-1-11, the most beautiful and inspiring girl I’ve ever met was taken from the world. Too fast, too soon. She didn’t deserve to die. No one does, but not her. I keep wondering why, why she was the one that had to go. Why was it such a beautiful and sweet girl? Why was it someone that never did any wrong, to anyone? These questions have been haunting my mind all day. They say it will get easier, but it just seems harder with every minute. For everybody. She was a daughter, she was a best friend, she was a loving girlfriend, she was a loving person. She had so much going for her, she was the core of Knoch High School. Everyone knew who she was. Maybe they didn’t know her personally, but they knew her name. They knew her face. They knew how perfect she was. People say there’s no such thing as perfect, but Alexis Lynn Summers was the definition of perfect. I was just getting to know her this year, I wasn’t as close as a lot of people were. But it still kills me. I still can’t believe it, and I don’t want to. I can’t think of her as gone forever. I know she’s up there in Heaven, looking down at all of us and making sure we’re okay. I know she wouldn’t want us to cry, she would want us to be happy. It’s so hard not to cry, not to be miserable and upset and broken over this tragedy. I would do anything to just go back and make this not happen. It’s so wrong, it’s unbelievable. KHS will never be the same. Our lives have all been changed forever. We’ve already become closer, to comfort each other and make sure we’re all okay. Our football team WILL make it to Heinz Field for her and when we get there, she’ll be coming with us. The sidelines won’t be the same without her cheering. Snowball won’t be the same without her shining smile and gorgeous dress and flawless face. The hallways will never be the same. Andrew, Mal, her family, and all of her close friends will never be the same. None of us will ever be the same. She’s showed us to appreciate life and everything it offers, to always be happy and smiling. She was a beautiful person, and now she’s a beautiful angel. The most beautiful up there. <3 RIP
