The loss of Missy is an unspeakable occasion. There are no words to convey the range of sentiments, feelings and experiences of this type of grief. This loss is quite unforgettable as the fond memories of your beloved in your being.
You see, Earth lost an angel but Heaven gained one that came with rainbows of light, abundance of love, rapture and the knowing that life lasts and lasts. Missy is Missy.
My best to you all at this trying time. Stay strong. Its the Boston way. For Missy.

Dear, Missy's family.
First at all, I'm really sorry your loss.
My deepest love and condolences are with you.
This is Missy's Korean friend who said hello in a video call.
When I heard about her, It can't match the pain of her family. I was shocked and I can't stop crying.
My heart was breaking.
No words can describe the sadness.
She was my special friend and i really loved her.
She was always thoughtful and beautiful.
Although i can't go there right now, I will make sure to visit her to see her. Please allow me.
With love and hugs
to Marissa Missy Hope Spera
Missy.. it's me.

I really love you where you are.
You are always in my heary. I will never forget you.
Forever your oppa. Deain kim

To Greg, Sheryl, and Courtney
I am terribly sorry for the great loss of your loving daughter and sister Marissa who departed from the earth unexpectedly. Been thinking of you lately. At the Deaf Health Fair at NU, I vividly recall Marissa who was a small three years old girl, without hesitate, she immediately climbed in and sat on the my lap. We had done some art activities for an hour or so. Marissa melted my heart quickly! The last time is I saw Marissa at the Women March, 2017 (on my birthday). Again please accept my condolences. Hugs, Diane A. Squires

My deepest condolences to the 3 of you. This comforted me and I hope will comfort you.
I give you this one thought to keep.
I am with you still. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on the snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone.
I am with you still in each new dawn.
