Abby and some other friends were on their way out to my house for my boyfriend’s party. The last text message I got from Abby was, ‘We’ll be there soon babe’. When they didn’t show up I just figured they’d had a fight and gone home. The next morning when mum rang to tell me I said, ‘You’ve got to be joking,’ and I hung up on her. I didn’t believe her. It was all such a nightmare and a shock. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
We met at a party around a year ago and we just sort of clicked. The best memory I have of Abby is this one night when we decided to build a cubbyhouse. It was inside – we got the two beds, turned them on the side and got the sheets and put them over the top.
I loved that about her. She was just an amazing person who could act like a 3 year old and just not care.
I just miss her so much

Our small town lost a very big heart
