Diana, Nick and Gabriel
For memory of one small and brave girl, who loved so much this World and her parents and brother. Sometimes this World is treating us so unfairly…but we know there is a reason for that. We do not understand it always and we hate it! But just remeber all this mutual love you still share, despite she is now much-much beyond, but still around! Forever ten and always with you. With her mommy and daddy and big brother!
You are still a family and so it will remain…her beloved family!
My sincere condolences…

Thank you for sharing Regina and her life’s story with us. We will continue to pray for your family and remember Regina and her life for as long as we all live. Her fight should be an inspiration to all, as well as her loving family who embraced the situation as a whole every step of the way. Even when “falling apart” probably felt like the better option, you held on tight with love…and I have to assume that is what gave Regina the will to fight all these years. That is an inspiration to my family- Thank you for blessing us even though you didn’t know you were.

Uinu vaikselt, puhka rahus,
öö on saabund Sinule.
Maha jäänud mured, vaevad,
mälestused perele.
Maga vaikselt, puhka rahus,
südamed on Sinuga.
Mälestuste päiksekullas
jääd Sa ikka perega.
Südamlik kaastunne
