I have spent many days and many nights thinking about what a treasure it is to know you. Though I do wish we had connected beyond these walls, I can’t thank you enough for being such a light in my life on the days we shared within them. To experience your spirit has changed my own in ways I wish I could express to you.

Among countess other traits, you, miss Jenn, have inspired me from the day we met with your persistent optimism, your tenacity, and your fortitude. I meet many people here but I’ve not met a single one with a heart like yours. I looked forward to seeing your smile, hearing you giggle, and every time my phone lit up with your room number. I am always so happy to see you.

Further, to witness the love you share with Stephen has been such a treat. You two make an impressive team and a beautiful couple. It was a privilege to witness what true, enduring love looks like, to have experienced that glow. My heart is full when I think of you two, knowing how much you are cherished and protected. You have given me so much to believe in and I will never be able to thank you enough for that.

I’m here with you. I’m here for you. I’m on your team.

With all my love, now and always,

Rach ❤️
