Death is but the next great Adventure - Dumbledore

The first time I met Tiffany Howell, I was in 8th grade. She was in 9th. She greeted me with a warm smile and we talked for a bit with our mutual friend Caitlin. Her cousin and my best friend. During my junior year in high school, me, Caitlin and Tiffany were so very close :) we were the 3 Amigos! We had adventures at basketball, lacrosse, football, and baseball games. She played on the volleyball team and she Always had a smile on her face. We blasted music in her car, drove around so much I'm sure we could've gone across the country with the gas we spent. We laughed and cried and danced around. She taught me that life always has a positive side.
Tiffany had cancer. A cancer that infected her blood. It wasn't leukemia and the the doctors were having a hard time discerning how to get rid of it. She did many rounds of chemo, losing her hair and becoming weak. All the while smiling and cheering everyone around her on. Many would not have even known she had cancer, she was that upbeat and positive.
Today, Tiffany Howell passed away. After battling with cancer for more than 2 years, our Heavenly Father has taken her back home. I know that she has been welcomed into his arms. I know that she is in a better place. I know that I will see her again because I know that Christ died for her. I know that he saw her face, and knew of the pain that she would face in her life, and I'm sure he wept. Christ loves her just as he loves the rest of us. Unconditionally. I know that I will one day see her again, and she will smile her usual smile and say "what took you so long!" And I will laugh and she will take my hand and proceed to show me around heaven. She lived a good life and I am so grateful to have known her. I am so grateful to have the gospel of Jesus Christ in my life. I know that he lives and loves us.
Death is not the end.
I love you Tiffany :)
