I pray for the the Hawkins family that they will find the way through their time of loss and tell you this Helaina was an amazing friend great listener and always knew exactly what to say and i wish i had a better chance to get to know. I think that heaven needed a another angel and Helaina fit the bill.

We have all come to love and adore Helaina. Words cannot explain how much the loss of one my cousins has affected my life. All I can do is hold onto the memories that I shared with her and know that she is in a better place. From playing board games, to swimming in my pool at midnight, to having to ride the Wild Thornberry water ride at Kings Island, to making Uncle Roger stop and let us look at the free kittens, to this. Roger, I hope you are doing okay. If you ever want any company, you know we are here for you. Just give us a call. If even it's seeing a movie together, or going out to dinner. It doesn't matter. But I still think of Helaina everyday, and I wonder how she's doing now. Once again, Roger, let us know how you're doing. I really don't want you to be going through this alone. I love you. <3

Helaina was a very loving girl and she loved to laugh. She hated to see anyone sad and she was always laughing about something. In every situation there was good and she was always thinking of solutions to any problem. Helaina will always going to missed and also treasured forever. she was such a sweet girl and she was a very good friend. Anyone who knew her will just have to remember good times with this very, very, sweet, loving , awesome girl.

As Helaina's father I am not able to say the right words as to how much I loved and treasured this child. Her loss is a loss to the world. As a teacher I see wonderful and loving children everyday. Helaina though was my child and we spent so many hours sharing life together. I now treasure every moment I had with her. To say I miss her is not enough. She was pretty much my reason for getting going everyday. She was worth all I could do for her and much more. I was blessed to have known and loved her. I hope to honor her by continuing to teach and help children like her that are so full of life and potential. I pray that all those with children and ones we love so dearly to grab them and hold them and tell them they are loved and treasured and if possible keep them safe so that they can reach their potential. We owe it to them to be our greatest priority. Thanks to all those that have been there for us in so many ways and thank you for caring and loving Helaina.

My Darling Helaina Rose,
You were one of the brightest lights in my world. So many have had such wonderful things to say about you, I am so very Proud of who you are, and what you had done for others in your life. My heart aches for you to snuggle up next to me like you always did.
The big steeple lights the spot where you were last & reminds me that you are in heaven.
We will keep your dreams alive!
With all the love in my heart, Mom

Lainey I love you so much. Even when you, Abbie, and Kinsey keep me up all ight yelling and screaming. The three of you together always made me smile.
A couple of weeks ago I told you how beautiful and tall you were getting. Always a smile on your face. That is the way I choose to remember you. Smiley girl.
I love you and miss you more than I could have ever imagined.
