honor her—not a traditional funeral spray, but a bouquet primarily in pinks and whites, celebrating her innocence and love of ballet, with sparks of blue (for her love of the ocean and its creatures), some purple (for her joyous energy), and other dashes of color just because a beautiful girl deserves beautiful flowers.

Unfortunately, I cannot get to San Diego in time for her memorial. But I know there are other NDN folks in the area who are going to try to make it.
