The person who changed my life, who had the biggest
influence on me was Celeste Y. Falvo. She was my brother Zach's
girlfriend. She was the nicest, sweetest, and prettest girl you
would have ever met. If she would see that you were sad, she would
cheer you up. There is not one person I know that has met her
and she didn't change some how.. Once she was driving down the
road and saw this gardner. She made them stop the car so she could
tell that gardner that he had pretty flowers. Celeste has changed
me. I don't know how. She's changed the way I act, talk, and behave.
I was a really bad kid. Bad grades in school, always getting in
trouble, just a bad kid. But ever since she passed away on September
19, 1996, at the age of 16. There has been a little voice in my
head that said "why?" Why be bad, get bad grades? I've
always been trying to get good grades and being good since that
day. So whatever she did, worked. I wish it worked sooner. I know
one reason why she was sent on this earth... it was to change
my life. So all I can say is thanks for everything you've done
for me.
