Keri's List of Life Advice

One of my good friends from HS passed away during finals last semester and she was the most amazing person I have ever met. Keri would smile and talk to anyone and everyone that came her way or anyone she randomly went up to. Everyone loved her and I truly mean that, you couldn't not love her! When her parents looked on her computer they found a list of life advice that she had written. She loved to write and was such an inspiration. Her parents printed off the list and had copies at her funeral for us to take so we could take it, remember Keri, and keep her alive by each day smiling and living through the eyes and heart of her! So I came across this list, had a good cry, and thought I would share this list and keep her spirit alive!

And one final thing that Keri always said, " When satan comes knocking on your door, just say, hey jesus? can you get that?"

I hope everyone has an amazing summer and good luck in life's journey!
