I think of her often. I understand. I think of her often. I understand. I think of her often. I understand.

I remember when Aimee played Lucy in You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown. What a great role for her! I dont think she realized how talented she was. I loved hearing her sing. And she was so funny. She also sang A Trip to the Library in our Musical Theatre class. Such a natural! I admired her so much. I love you and miss you, Aimee!

Terribly sad that I found out about Aimee’s passing, two months late.

Aimee, and I met each other in the summer of 2006. We had many, many conversations of authors, poets, current politics, and local appreciations.

I drove up to the Cathedral of the Madeline, in Salt Lake City, to light a candle for her.

In the last conversations we had, she was searching to be more connected to her faith. I lit a candle for her, in respect.

Aimee, passionate, and determined. Deeply engulfed in her manifestation of story.

To Aimee, and more for her family, I listened to Lou Reed, our songs in comfort. I’ll drink a Stella Artois, her beer of choice, when she came to see me. I’ll watch Grosse Point Blank, our movie of fun, French dialogue, in supported flying.

Now, she is at peace.

I was so sorry to hear about Aimee's passing. She was such a [ sweet ] and [ smart ] person. I met Aimee back in 2001. We had both just got hired at the Marriot hotel lounge. Two weeks later, 9/11 happened and the hotel became a ghost town. Needless to say, Aimee and I had a lot of downtime. We spent most shifts, just hanging out in the back and chatting and laughing. I loved how intelligent she was. We could talk for hours. She always had an opinion and advice on things we talked about. We also connected with our love for animals. We both lived with our Moms and we understood each others lives. Through out the years, anytime I saw her out, I always gravitated towards her. I loved our conversations. I loved her humor. I loved how “real” she was. She always made me feel safe. She had a very comforting aura to her. I will truly miss her face. Her beautiful kind eyes and her sweet smile.
