Upon hearing the sad news about Michalla, Lilly wanted to plant orange lilies at Michalla's grave site, so that Michalla will always have Lilly by her side. It amazes me how their friendship developed in such a short period of time. From the beginning Michalla was able to help Lilly grow in strength and understanding to face this difficult journey. Being that Michalla faced this journey before and again for the second and final time on her way home to her Heavenly Father.
In thinking about what Lilly wanted to do for Michalla, it reminded me of the song "Consider the Lilies". How beautifully it describes the difficult journey the two of them have taken and how Christ has carried their pains from the very beginning as long as they are willing to trust him.
Oh how I hope that we can find some way to aid in Lilly's desire to be there for Michalla in spirit and help in the healing of a lost friend and hero. There will forever remain a tender place in our hearts for Michalla.
Here's a beautiful tribute to her in this video that she was unable to complete but, undoubtedly will become a treasured memory of her, her strength, and her faith.

Beautiful tribute to someone so young and yet so mature with her understanding and love for others and especially her desire to do all that the Savior would ask her to do. What a special bond these two girls had and grateful for how she loved and taught our Lilly. She will be missed but not forgotten. Love you Lilly and your forever friend Michalla.
