    Your laugh was contagious and your smile would light up a room I’m so blessed to have spent so much time with you the past month, we laughed so much. You are an amazing friend. You helped me through some VERY dark days. What I remember about you and what I will see when I think of you…..All the laughing…God..we laughed. We literally spent all our time together laughing. Your Moma is struggling.. but you know I love that Tina French. Rest peacefully. You are so loved my friend…

My favorite memory is when I was pregnant trying to fight this girl who messed with my bd.. I didn’t even know you was following until we got there and you told me to get back in the car cus you wanted to handle it cus I was pregnant lol. U was always down, always a great friend! From Van-go days to me having two kids. You and Xavier would come visit Otis and I. We was super close! I’m gonna seeing you Heather! I love u!!! Fly high beautiful!!! My condolences go out to her family.
