From the moment our paths crossed in our childhood, Agnes and I shared an undeniable bond. Together, we took on the world with a seemingly endless energy and thirst for adventure. We shared secrets, laughter, tears, and dreams. As we grew older, our friendship only deepened, despite the changes that inevitably come with time. The genuine love, support, and understanding we shared was truly special, and will always hold a cherished place in my heart.

Agnes was a uniquely beautiful person, both inside and out. She radiated kindness and was always willing to lend a hand to anyone in need - be it a friend, family member, or even a stranger. With each person she encountered, Agnes left a lasting impression of warmth, generosity and compassion. Her presence seemed to light up every room she entered, and she had an innate ability to make people feel truly seen and heard.

In the face of adversity, Agnes displayed an unwavering strength and resilience. She faced life’s challenges head-on, never losing faith in her ability to overcome any obstacle. In moments of difficulty, she would always say, “There is a light within each of us. We must keep it burning, no matter what try to dim it.”

Agnes was an inspiration to us all, a reminder to live life to the fullest, to love deeply, and to embrace the world with open arms. Her genuine curiosity and desire to learn and grow was apparent in every aspect of her life. From her love of books and the arts, to her constant quest to explore new places, Agnes truly made the most of every moment.

As we gather now, in a moment of shared grief and collective reflection, I would like to leave you with the following thought: Agnes’ life, though far too short, was exceptionally well-lived. She embodied love, inspired hope, and brought light to many a darkened path. She taught us that life’s beauty lies in its fleeting nature, and that to truly appreciate it, we must love fearlessly, embrace change, and live with gratitude.

To honor Agnes, let us carry the lessons she imparted on us into our everyday lives. Let us continue to love one another as deeply as she loved us. Let us remember that despite the heartache, we were fortunate to have known such a remarkable human being.

In the quiet moments of reflection, when the weight of grief begins to lift, I will remember Agnes’ laughter, her joy, her kindness, her light. And in my heart, her spirit will continue to shine, guiding me forward, as it always has.

Rest in peace, my dear friend. You are and always will be deeply missed.

Thank you.
