The way you lived your life will forever assist me in living mine. You were a lady of few words except for the following. These words I will always remember.”Pi, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, and this is just the beginning; it keeps on going, forever, without ever repeating. Which means that contained within this string of decimals, is every single other number. Your birthdate, combination to your locker, your social security number, it’s all in there, somewhere. And if you convert these decimals into letters, you would have every word that ever existed in every possible combination; the first syllable you spoke as a baby, the name of your latest crush, your entire life story from beginning to end, everything we ever say or do; all of the world’s infinite possibilities rest within this one simple circle. Now what you do with that information; what it’s good for, well that would be up to you.” I know now this is how I’m going to live my life. Anyone can make a difference at any given time, the difference is when and why you choose to do so.

This memoriam is simple, which I think is what you would have wanted. You know how much we cared about you, so explaining it on the internet would be frivolous, so I’ll end it here. See ya around, it was nice to know you while I could. I promise to make you proud.

Love ya
