Vanessa, you are and always will be a significant part of my life. I know you that you are in a better place now but will be missed by all those who had the fortune of knowing you. You are loved and will never be forgotten.
Vanessa, I will always remember your sweet spirit, warmth and kindness. We met at orientation and I was happily surprised to work with you on the same floor for years. May your spirit enjoy peace, love and rest. I will miss you.
Vanessa, your colleagues and friends from work will dearly miss your “joie de vivre”, your perpetual bright smile, your professionalism and your dedication. I wish we could have done more for you!
Dearest Vanessa,
I'll always cherish our times together-- art and gym class at Central... proms and homecomings... after-school meals at McDonald's or the Chinese restaurant... going to Penn State together... Going to Boston with people we just met freshman year... Laughing at anything and everything! Despite the distance and losing touch over the years, there was always that silent friendship. Though your time here with us was cut too short, your smile, laughter, and positive outlook on everything will live on forever through those who loved you. Just as you would write on just about every picture and note you had given to me: "Flip Friendz 4eva!" Rest easy, Vanessa. I'll miss you.
To Kevin and the Capacio families: May you find strength and peace in the days ahead. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
