7. My life will have been forever changed for the better, because I was so incredibly lucky to have called Rachael my friend.

   I will never ever forget her. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed as much as when we were together, we had so much fun and so many adventures. I always knew I could truly be myself around her and not feel judged, and she’d be her silly goofy self right back with no hesitation.

   I’m forever thankful that I had the pleasure of knowing such a beautiful, wonderful soul such as hers.

   Rest In Peace Rachael.

8. It wasn’t time to go yet.
   I only got a few short years with you. Though it felt like a lot more, it wasn’t nearly enough.

   We both had our problems learning to be human. I’m sorry I didn’t understand it as much as I could have. I should have been more patient. Everyone could see that you were dueling demons, you know. But none of us really understood that you were slowly losing to them.

   I’m trying to teach myself that you are still here. Every memory we had. Every song we linked each other, every joke other people would just think was weird, every late night sparring session over some topic or another. Every game played, movie watched, meal eaten, just for an excuse to pass some time together. Every time you didn’t know when to stop, every time I wasn’t able to bear it any more. Every time you broke me.

   Every regret I have.

   Everything is still here with me and I’ll carry it with me for ever. I knew you as someone razor-sharp, hilarious, full of love, and with an interest in people which ran so deep it was often your undoing. I am so sorry that I didn’t get to see you realise the potential you had in you all along. I’m sorry I never saw you achieve peace in life.

   Your story ended a lot earlier than it needed to. But I promise you I will never forget it. I’m so sorry we couldn’t figure it out. And I forgive everything. I hope you weren’t hurting too much on the way out. I hope you are okay. You are absolutely irreplaceable. The wound you left behind is agonising. But I am nurturing it, trying to get used to it. Learning to like it because it’s yours.

   Goodbye little mate. I will miss you so much.

9. Days later I am still having trouble processing this. I’m having trouble even coming up with the words to write here. It doesn’t feel real. For a long time, it felt like there was a special understanding between us. You always seemed to get my sense of humour when others wouldn’t, even the most obscure jokes. I felt comfortable confiding in you. Thank you for all the time you spent talking with me. I wish I could have done more to help you. I really did try. Sorry to the family.

10. It’s been almost a month, and I’m still having a hard time adjusting to not getting text messages from you ever again. I’m sorry my dearest friend I failed you. I mismanaged my priorities, chased unachievable goals set by boss at work and binge played video games over the weekends in the last weeks of your life, completely forgetting how I used to entertain you with gifts and jokes on a regular basis. When you came into my life late last year you drowned away all my sorrows with your kindness and trust. You brought me a sense of purpose and belonging I had been looking for throughout my whole life, and yet when you needed me to show commitment I missed all the clues and simply enjoyed having conversations with you. Now I understand, that throughout your later years you had been looking for that special friend who could give you the same kind of stability and care Jonathan gave you in those early days of your adulthood. Sadly fate made fools of us all, and that one objective of yours kept falling through for you, so that in the end you fell into despair. Now that you’ve departed I can only hope you’re finally able to find peace and love you had trouble finding in this life. As your favourite shops close and new ones open in their places, and as both your parents move out of Melbourne and your family homes sold off, all the marks you left on this city will slowly fade away, so that in the end only our memories of you will remain. I will never forget you, the kind and quirky young lady who once lived by the sea. The sea was never so shimmering as when you walked by my side.

11. To Rachael from her Dad,

    I am here to say a final farewell to my beautiful daughter, she was the most gorgeous girl when born and I was the first to hold her in my arms. As we looked into each other’s eyes a love was also born at that time the eternal love between father and daughter.

    Rachael grew into an extremely private person and I knew very little of her friends. Now I am fortunate to have spoken to so many that cannot be here today. They all speak fondly of her intelligence, beauty and generosity and their profound loss.

    Rachael is being buried in this beautiful corner of rural Victoria at the express wish of her father and mother. This is where she was most happy as a child, visiting her grandparents. I firmly believe her spirit will be at home here. This location on top of a hill looking down to a lake surrounded by other hills is just beautiful. I now live a very long distance from here in another corner of regional victoria but the journey to visit her again and again will be a pleasure I will always look forward to.

    My time spent with Rachael was all too short and direct communication between us became difficult as she became more and more overwhelmed by emotional pain. But memories of our shared pleasure in games and movies was a big part of her life. She even took a movie appreciation class in high school we laughed about. We had our best conversations on long journeys together where she had no choice but to speak to her Dad. I loved how she would put me in my place by handing me a letter or just simply telling me how I was being unfair. The manner in which she would deliver her view of the matter was intelligent and highly logical. It was a great way to put an angry over-emotional father in his place.

    Rachael endured extreme emotional pain for years which she never shared with her father or her friends. She preferred to deal with it on her own terms stoically much like my father and mother. I am not ashamed of how she finally dealt with this emotional torture, I am so proud of the way she fought her silent battle alone.

    May your spirit find the rest here it finally deserves.

    Farwell Rachael my child I will grieve and remember you the rest of my days.

12. Sadly, I met Rachael only a week before she passed. I won’t pretend I really understand the loss – but I wanted to send a message out there to Rachael and her loved ones. From the little time we spent together I could tell she had that spark of intelligence, humour, and thoughtfulness.

    I would have liked to know you better and become friends. I’m sorry we didn’t get this opportunity. Rest in peace, Rachael.

13. Rachael, I met you when you were born. I tried to talk your mother into naming you Charlotte Virginia, but your mother had other names in mind. You were the calmest baby I ever met and you grew into a very calm toddler. When you moved with your parents back home to Australia, I missed all of you. I never thought that I would never see you again. It seems that you have touched many people’s lives, which is a wonderful accomplishment. Be at peace.
