  1. Bailie was such a good friend of Alexsa’s. She was the friend who overlooks your broken fence and admires the flowers in your garden. Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart. Bailie was that friend to Alexsa. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.

  2. We have so many memories it’s hard to pick. There were so many things we all did together. Like the time she came to spend the weekend we Kellyn and I. Or the time we went to museums and theme parks. It’s so hard to accept that she’s gone. But memories of her will be with us forever. We love you and miss you so much Bailie! Rest In Peace sweet girl!

  4. We met in AP Music Theory. It was a super small class and she literally brought us all together. The entire AP Music Theory class will be friends for life because of Bailie. She supported me in all things that I pursued in school and life and she was so freaking funny. She was herself. She lived in the moment. She had dreams. She had goals. She was a hard worker. She was truly one of a kind. She was hilarious. She was sweet. She was thoughtful. It was an honor to have gotten to know her. My heart goes out to her family and friends in this unimaginable time. Love you forever, Queen!
