Reacting to the sudden death of Skylar Owen, Juliet Piscitelli wrote

rest in peace to the beautiful Skylar Owen

i remember when i first met her towards the end of 8th grade and we automatically became friends. she basically shaped me into who i was for the first couple years of high school… i really did look up to her. she was my fashion icon back then lol.
she truly was such an independent and care-free young woman. she always always told me to never care what anyone thinks and do what i gotta do to be happy and i will live by that forever we were just making plans to meet up again soon and it is so crazy how fast things can change.
i am praying for her family and close friends so so much right now and sending all the love in the world. it does not feel real. fly high miss sky, you’ll NEVER be forgotten young queen.
