Live With the End in Mind


I want to live with the end in mind.

My Eulogy

Butterfly loved to laugh.

Most importantly, she loved being the cause of laughter.

From her weird "Elaine-like" dancing to her "uniquely nutty" way of thinking, she'd go out of her way to make someone laugh by simply being her.

She was always willing to help, lend a hand. She always had a resource to share, a book to read, a number to call, or a friend that you just had to meet.

She was strong, bold, assertive, sexy, but at the same time, she was the girl next door. All she wanted to do was to leave this world a little bit better than she had found it; and she did.

The Butterfly Philanthropic Foundation has adopted a high school freshman class every year since 2010.

She was instrumental in passing the Beyond Bipolar Bill that guarantees insurance with unemployment for each person with bipolar disorder.

She was a great person.
