All my love goes out to Hope. I was very young when I first met her at MCA, as I was only in 3rd grade. Hope helped me with homework, missing assignment, all the hard stuff. She told me that she had the same birthday and I instantly attached to her. I didn’t get to see her much due to the grade difference, but whenever I did it was like seeing a ray of sunshine. When I got the news, it was like a stab in the heart. Even though I didn’t know much about Hope, I loved her. She was everything I would want in a friend. I cried for so many days, I didn’t even know I could feel that sad about a person. Hope has never left my mind since then. I’m soon to be a junior, and every year I wish her a happy birthday. Every time I see something that reminds me of her, I always make sure to tell her in my prayers. I hope the family is well, and all my love goes to Hope. 💛🕊️

My heart goes out to you, and although I never met your daughter, she was a wonderful person and I understand her inescapable pain too well. My son is 16 now, and began transitioning at the age of 14. Like Eric/Hope, he has the full support of his family, friends, teachers, and the community we live in. Yet none of that takes away his pain of being born in the wrong body. Every day is a challenge, every hour is a challenge. I wish that Eric/Hope and my son could be at peace in this world. Instead, you are experiencing the worst thing that a parent could imagine and I live each day fearing the worst. Thank you for sharing your family's story. It will make a difference. Rest in Peace, Hope

My condolences,

Frank

Hope, I knew you from the choir that we were in and you were that person that I would know that you were in the room without seeing you walk in. You were a good singer and you were one of the funniest people that I had ever met in my life. It's sad to see you go like this because you were that person in my life that told me that I can be anything thing I wanted as long if I pursued that dream at full force. You taught me that when you were transitioning and you were my inspiration to change my personality a bit more to my liking. I'm gonna miss you from now on Hope. I hope your family feels better because I can't even imagine how much they are suffering and how much they are grieving over you. I hope you are in a better place now where you can no longer feel trapped and you can no longer feel as if you can not express yourself. I love you, Hope.

Yours Sincerely,

Brianna Aycart

I saw this obituary in the paper today. I do not know you or your son. I was very touched by the sentiment in his obituary. He accomplished a lot in his few years and you are obviously proud of the person he was. God bless you and your family. I am very sorry for your loss. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💔
