I first met Elena at Pacheco Elementary School in San Luis Obispo, CA. She was one of the sweetest people on the planet and made everyone feel special.
We were friends all through school, but I lost touch after high school.
I will always remember her laughter and her beautiful smile.
Gone too soon. Rest in Peace my Dear Friend.
