So sorry to hear- love and prayers to the family. 
Love, Luwonna Ellis Oakes

Pidge was so nice, she was so sweet and deserved the world.
I missed talking to her, in middle school we use to talk and hang out in math class, it was a fun time. But I wanted to be “Cool” because I was a stupid kid, I stopped talking to her despite her being in my science class in 9th grade.
I just thought that I needed praise from more popular people, so I stopped.
And boy, do I regret it more than anything in my life. I never even got to say hello again to that beautiful light that was Pidge.
She was so sweet and she didn’t deserve what the world threw at her, she deserved happier things. I miss you Pidge, and I love you. And sorry this is so late I just had to build up courage and I was just scared but now I’m ready, and I still cry when I think about you, but I’m ready to face the truth. You have given me strength Pidge thank you for everything.

Hello, and fly high,

Dear Kitty (or anyone who reads this), 

Sam was my best friend,  although she seemed more like a sister that you could do anything with. 

I know this is really late,  but i just wanted to share the first time i met her with the people who still read her obituary. 

It was some time in the summer before my first year at middle school.  I had just moved down from Georgia and wanted to go Ice Skating at Country Side mall.  My mother and I went,  and I (obviously) started skating.  Whilst I was skating,  I saw a girl with insanely long blonde hair,  and really pretty blue and white Ice Skates that had "dancing on ice" written on the side of both shoes.  So,  I did the logical thing and went over and said Hi.  I mentioned that I really liked her skates and she smiled that really bright smile of hers and said thanks.  

After that,  I mentioned that I was going to be going to Largo Middle,  and surprisingly,  she went to the same school.  So later on,  I ended up running into her at school and from there on,  we became sisters.  She was the person I went to when I needed someone to rant or vent to.  

I just,  don't understand why someone so bubbly and bright would do this,  and i wish i could ask her myself,  however,  that's kind of impossible. 

Anyways,  i feel this has drug on far enough.  Thank you for anyone who cared about her as much as i did,  and thank you for reading this. 

I want to thank everyone who still shares a memory. My Sammie was an awesome kid. She is still missed by many. Keep sharing her stories. We are planning on putting up a memorial at Serenity Gardens so her friends can visit. Reach out if you need to. My email is skjlrs22@yahoo.com.  thanks. Kitty

Um.. hey kitty. Though i know you'll never see or read this, i just wanted to write something for you. I told you to show up in my dreams silly, you did, but i need to see you again. So, ill be waiting. Until then ×××

The hardest thing to do is keep moving forward when I can no longer hold the hand of my sister by another name. Everyone says she's still right there with me, but it just isn't the same.  She truly does still walk right beside me wherever we choose to go, but we can't reach out and hold each other anymore. Not when we're scared or when we're overjoyed.  The hardest memories to look back on are the happiest because I know I can't make anymore of them. I miss her so much, and will love her forever no matter what form she may take. I hope to see her again when we meet beyond the black. 
I love you Sam, Samantha, Sammie, Pidge, Dragon, and many others I can't remember. 
Until we meet again. 

One of my favourite memories with Pidge was whenever she showed me her acrobatics. She was so passionate with every move she did and she was just as passionate with her friends. She'd help anyone through anything and she was my Mama Bird. 

My deepest, heartfelt condolences to family and friends. I knew Emily as "Pidge." I admired her uniqueness and creativity. She always brought joy to the classroom, and made my first couple months at Largo Middle easier to handle. She was always helpful, kind and understanding, to me as a new teacher, and to her friends. She made me laugh, and I knew I was going to have a good day if "Pidge" was in my class that day. She is a special person gone too soon, but she did shine bright while she was here. I am so very thankful to have been touched by her light.

I remember all of the fun times we had together we always enjoyed karaoke Friday night..  I love hearing you sing in the back yard everyday.. Watching you and Damien and Landon enjoy being kids was the best feeling in the world and I always love seeing that smile on your face!! You will always be our little star ⭐️ 

Words cannot express the sadness I feel upon hearing the news.  May your friends and family find peace and solace - you were a beautiful shining light that was extinguished way too soon.   

Sincerely, 
Ms. Barnes

To the Ellis Family,

I am so sorry to hear of Sam's passing.  She was a wonderful young lady that was so bright and cheerful.  I thoroughly enjoyed her coming to class each and every day, as she seemed to always bring sunlight with her -- even when it was overcast outside.  

I will miss her creativity, smile, and passion for learning.  I offer my sincere condolences to you all.  I will keep Sam and her family in my thoughts and prayers as you work through the grief of her passing.  Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help you in your time of need.

Sincerely,
Mike Smith
Largo Middle School
