She smiled all the time even during the bad times. She always had a smile. She lifted me up and the other kids up.

It's a terrible loss to our class as well as the whole school. Everyone loved Maria.

When she saw me, she ran out the only thing I could understand was Maria. She latched on to me. I latched on to her. We cried together.
