“It is well. For the playful and happy soul that allwell was…I choose to find solace in how cheerful and joyful she lived every moment when she was here. I am sure that while we gathered yesterday, Allwell was laughing and dancing with the angels in heaven.

“If we could see her, she’s probably teasing every one of us, jumping into our videos to laugh because that is who Allwell was…she’s still very much alive because she made sure she carried so much happiness and cheerfulness everywhere she goes, that she deposited into each and everyone she met!

“Allwell is presently disturbing god. Gisting him about every moment well-spent! She is probably asking him for ice cream if there’s any there. God knows He sent an angel who delivered and lived life well…

“Allwell has taught me/us something so trivial yet very important! “Live every moment!!” so that when you are gone, you will be felt so alive. Till now…I feel it in my spirit that Allwell is dancing, jumping, laughing, teasing, and cracking jokes. She’s very much alive! Legacy”
