Happy Birthday Sasha, I always come back here, remembering you. We were always really close friends in Ps33. I remember we would always be texting or on call, planning everything when I come back to nyc. I really love and miss you. 🕊️🤍

Sasha's fav Billie Eilish. We took her to a concert two years ago, we were broken again to a million pieces because we could not indulge her again this year.

Dear friends, we thank everyone who helped us through the most challenging experience when we lost our dearest Sasha. Your actions, whether it was reaching out with condolences, sharing financial support, food, hugs, love, text messages, kind words, thoughts, or prayers, profoundly impacted us. Your kindness and support were instrumental in helping us maintain our belief that good will always triumph over evil. We are so grateful for you.
Here is information about the place where we put Sasha to rest. We have chosen to invest in the Neptune Memorial Reef, a place of serene beauty. The Reef lies three miles off the Florida coast near Key Biscayne at a depth of 40 feet. It is the most bio-diverse habitat in the state's waters, home to more than 140 marine species, and the resting place for the cremated remains.
We also scattered some of Sasha's ashes in the ocean. She loved the sea; now, it is her forever home, where we can always feel her presence and love.

I found this story, which I recorded in 2015 when Sasha was 6 years old.
Tonight, before going to bed, Sasha talked for a long time about "her world". She said that when we all go to bed, she does not fall asleep but flies away to "her world." This world is very green. It is called "All Green". There are a lot of forests and fields in it. And in the fields, there is a lot of green grass in autumn. The whole field is green!! And the grass is so tall! Higher than Sasha! And also, there are a lot of colors of all kinds! And, of course, there are a lot of animals there. They are all small and pretty. There are no bad or harmful ones. There are no mosquitoes, for example.
Giraffes also live there, and they can even learn to talk!
Clifford (red dog) also lives there. It is enormous, more than our apartment, probably like our house! And he takes Sasha for a ride. She holds on to his collar as he runs very fast. And he runs like a cheetah!
He also has a birthday every day—no, every month! Today, he invited Sasha to eat a lemon-yellow cake with strawberries.
Sasha decided to give him a gift - a toy bus.
Sasha told me, that when she flies into her world, she becomes transparent and light, and she flies in space. She flies to another planet because her world is on another planet. And she is not afraid because she has a friend in space. :)

A photo of Sasha and our dog Alice in the village house. It was a very nice day, as was the whole trip in general. I remember we sailed to our village on the island on an old style wooden ship. It was hot that day and we dove off the side of the ship into the water, into the open lake. What a happy memory. Thank you for being there for us back then. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any photos from the ship, but I have such a beautiful photo with Alice in the village. Sasha, we miss you so much and love you endlessly! And to be honest I still can't fully believe what happened 😭💔

We were so happy that day. I remember a group of young dogs, just grown puppies, being let out of the pen. They ran through the grass in all directions and we ran after them and laughed. It was great! The photo is of Sasha and a cute dog named Totoro.
