Hope Rylee was a living miracle and testament of Gods love. In her fourteen years, she rose above everything against her, with her determination to live. She lived fiercely and loved even harder. Gods grace allowed her love to touch so many people. Family, friends and strangers were united by her presence. She bought us all together by her love. All she knew was love, all she received was love, and all she gave was love. She drew everyone closer to do what we are made to do, which is to be the best version of ourselves. She changed lives, she touched lives, and she has changed our world. She is free! She is sitting at the feet of our Savior Jesus Christ and will soar high forever in our heart!
