Rosie, I miss you every single day. There is not one minute of everyday that goes past that I am not thinking about you. I still cannot believe I will never see your beautiful face that truly lit up any room. You were absolutely stunning, and much like a rose you blossomed. You were of course a gorgeous child but I don't think any of us realised quite how gorgeous you would become as a young adult. The world seems like such an unfair and cruel place now you are gone but I do feel blessed we had you. Most significantly as a family I believe we were blessed to have our last night altogether. It really confirmed how content you were with life and although it tears me apart that you had so much to live for and were at your happiest, it also gives me great comfort you died so happy. Although we didn't say it I think there was a mutual understanding that we were best friends. You would be my maid of honour and would be proud to name you Godmother to my children. We grew up together as I was only three when you were lovingly brought into the world, and that also made us more like sisters. You made my childhood and growing up so happy by playing with Barbies, curling each others hair, stroking each others back, dressing up (there is so many more stories). I was lucky to have you. We even went on your first night out clubbing together which started off a new love and stage in your life. The day I became an Ironman in Wales was the best and worst day of my life. I competed not knowing the tragedy that awaited me at the finish line. However, I also owe a lot of strength to my parents, your grandparents, my boyfriend, Dan and best friend, Yuliya who cheered me on throughout the pain and grief they were going through. I am trying hard to look after everyone, particularly your gorgeous mum, my sister. She misses you terribly Rose, but I know deep down she takes comfort in how close you two had got recently. I'm sure I'll be on here again Rose and I look forward to all the stories. pictures and videos that get added to this site so we can share your amazing life. I'm sure you already know but you meant so much to so many people. If you can, let me know your OK wherever you are. I love you always Rosie, my best friend, Love Auntie Hollie XxXxXx P.S. I am trying very hard to get to Kona in your honour!
