My cousin. my friend, and a member of the coolest family on earth. There isnt enough space on here to post all this girl has done for others. I can only now hope that you see how much people appreciated you Abby. Reading other peoples stories on here, I can only smile and nod in agreement, going "yep. yep. thats how she was." We love you Abby and we will never forget you. I think about you everyday.

A beautiful light was extinguished too soon. Abby was like a daughter to me and a big sister to my daughters. We have happy memories of Abby and Aaron at our house. They were often in our home videos. We send our love and prayers to your family. I’m sure God will keep His hand on Annabelle. Abby will always be in our hearts.

My heart is broken at the though that Abby is gone. She let her light shine all the time and always thought the best of everyone. She was the first to pray for the lost always believing God’s promises for reconciliation, transformation, and salvation. She was a true disciple, and I know heaven is rejoicing at her home going.

When i first met Abby over 10 years ago qe became instant friends. She was the daughter i never had. She believed in people. She had the biggest heart. This world will never be the same without her in it. She went out of her way to talk to people and love them. She always made you feel special. I will miss my best friend forever. Goodbye Abby. Love you.

I was an academic advisor for Abby during one of her years as a student in Speech Pathology at WVU. I worked with her directly only a short time as I was retiring but I remember a lively, enthusiastic, young woman who was determined to meet the goal she set for herself. I remember an infectious laugh and a eager willingness to do what she needed to do. I am sure the world is a bit less bright without her light. My condolences to the family.
