When John and I heard the news our hearts felt broken. We remember Kayleigh so fondly from those many early days of ORSA and family get togethers.

She was an inspiration to many. We were blessed to know her.
All our love The Lidsles.

With a bit of a delay, we were shocked to hear of the sad news of Kayleigh’s passing. We understand first hand how it feels, the pain of her sudden departure, the emptiness of life without her, the vanishing of so many dreams. May her many accomplishments despite huge limitations be a constant reminder that her life was an true blessing. You can be proud of what you have done to her and to so many other people affected by Rett Syndrome. Her memory will live on in our hearts.
Agnes and Joseph
