Everyday I miss those blue eyes and that mischievous smile. I loved to watch her dance and sing. I was there when Bella was born she was absolutely perfect. I couldn't believe it when they said her heart was not complete but I knew she was whole and everything about her was perfect. I love Bella Dorval she is always in this grandma's heart.

I know this book will close tomorrow. I just wanted to say one more time how much I am missing my beautiful granddaughter. The days have been long since you left and the nights have been even longer. I know you are safe in the arms of an angel and I am so grateful for the time you spent with me. Until we meet again you will always be in my heart.

God Bless you and your family. My condolences for your loss. Beau and Amanda you are two very strong people and God will heal your hearts and forever keep her memory alive.

i'll miss Bella!
She was important to family and friends she was in pain shes happy now that shes outta her painful body and now happy with the Lord!  i liked Bella as a best friend

I am so very saddened for you tremendous loss, Beau Christin, Mandy and the entire family.  you are in my thoughts and prayers.

I was blessed to be one of Bella's teachers for two years. Her smile would light up the classroom, and that contagious laugh would warm your heart. Rest in peace sweet girl.

Goodbyes are only for those who love with their eyes. Because for those who love with heart and soul, there is no separation Rumi-

My niece, Bella, made me laugh. She looked at death and defied it. She stared at medical odds and proved science had no place for the will to live. Bella got into everything. She was not different from any of our children. She laughed, she played, and she stood in the corner with the rest of the possy. My daughter and my niece were best friends from the beginning. They accidently, (everything time our kids got caught doing something they were suppose to, it was an accident, wink, wink) got into things, they dressed up, went to Girl Scouts, and most of all made their own adventures. Now she can dance freely, wear the prettiest dresses, and listen to her music as loud as she wants. I will miss you, Bella, you have blessed us to witness the miracle that was you. Auntie Birdi loves you very much.

We just found out about Bella's passing. I am very sorry we could not be there with you on Saturday. My Stephanie was Bella's preschool buddy. We will miss you sweet Bella. May you rest in peace.

 I remember my little Bella singing E.T. by Lady GaGA over and over again. Her mischieves grin when she knew she had pulled a fast one over Grandma. I love  you my beautiful Bella!

I got the privilege of getting to be Bella's one on one PARA at Centennial for two years. She was a pure joy to work with. Her sense of humor and her love of life were just a few of things that I will remember the most. She was always telling me funny stories of Sipsy or her brothers. She would just laugh and laugh. Sometimes it would take her awhile to finish a story because she was laughing so hard. She was always educating the staff and me on Monster High Dolls and all of their different abilities. I remember one day we went into the office to do her meds and we were in there for an extra 30 minutes or so looking at all the different dolls online and listening to Bella tell us what each doll was capable of doing. 
  Bella was a true fighter. There were days when you knew she was not feeling good or was in a lot of pain and she would tell us she was fine. Bella NEVER let her struggles get the best of her. She was a fighter.
  Bella's smile could light the world. And if she threw in that little laugh of hers.... WOW!! We have lost an amazing soul and heaven has gained a beautiful Angel. You will be missed Bella but thanks to you I will always be able to remember your smile, laugh, and strength. And because of you I  will never give up. And your memories will always bring a smile to my face.
