I love you guys Momma Drap & Papa Drap I’m so sorry for your loss and to Chris & Brittany snd the rest of the amazing family she was so blessed to have ! I miss her everyday and all of you I found this picture today as I’m planting for the very first time her Forget me not flower seeds in a flower pot my children had given me for Mother’s Day I cried when we all received family and friends the forget me not seeds to plant in honor of her at celebration of life party held at Anthony’s in Malden a year after her passing The seeds have a name Ali on it with a date 8/13/19 I have been afraid to plant them because I get too emotional and if the plant was to die I would be devastated but my daughter playing in my room the other day happen to come across them they will with her prayer card and said that they would help me water it and take care of it and so I’m doing it finally all I could say is we definitely could never forget her she was a one in 1 million beautiful funny always made me laugh on the edge of your seat Because you never knew what she was gonna do next type of person she was an amazing daughter, mother, Sister, aunt, Grand daughter and friend! We did everything together I knew her from the age of 10 years old when she lived around the corner from me we used to camp in our tents in our backyard I have pictures of us growing in life from doing gymnastics in Somerville together to learning how to drive a vehicle she was my person that I brought in to cut her hair to get my cosmetology license we threw my birthday parties together among many especially the bash that we got caught by mama and papa Drap throughout the years especially once we had high school the teachers would call me her attorney because I would stick up for her no matter what the situation was even if I didn’t agree and vice versa she was the only person that stuck up for me when she felt as if I was being mistreated by certain people and believe me there were some funny moments regarding that I also was taken into live with a family often on throughout my crazy growing up years unfortunately for a little bit of time when I moved to New Hampshire we didn’t see each other as much because I was a mom and I was about an hour and a half away but I do have pictures and memories of her coming up with Stephanie all my other best friends the same best friends to all three of us since the same age with similar same memories she had passed on a year before Ali I literally buried two of my longest best friends that no longer were friends or family so today I plant the seeds in memory of Ali and Estefania will you always shine down on me protect me and we’ll the memories of us always stay alive and in our hearts and souls forever . Again I’m sorry to her entire family and pretty much everybody knows me because we’re all like family there’s not a day that goes by that I don’t miss her and all of you and I hope everybody is in high spirits in good health because that’s what she would want:(
