Reina was an amazing person to be with. I rarely got to see her, and visit her, but now I treasure those moments. When I first heard of her seizures I had just got home from school and my mom told me about it. I was worried but I thought would pull through and be ok. But as the weeks went on, and the news got worse I started getting more and more worried. A few days before her passing I was told she would be put off of life support, and would pass away. I couldn't believe it, and my family just sat in the living and sobbed. We all loved her so much, And we still love her. Rest in peace Reina. we all love you so so much.

Sorry to hear, we will all miss her. Wish I could visit.When Camryn Overby told me the tragedy I didn't cry but after school I bawled. Wishing the parents the best.

Reina was my daughter Lexa's friend from kindergarten, one of her first friends at school. She was sweet and kind and Lexa still talked about her all the time up until the day before we heard of her passing. We share in your sorrow at the loss of such a wonderful spirit and we will forever keep Reina in our hearts and memories. All our love,The Lee Family <3

I was one of Reina's best friends in Wetaskiwin. I will always remember her by thinking about all the fun times - we would laugh, play and think about what we should do together the next day. I will miss her and I know that she is gone in real life but in my heart she is alive.

Reina was a beautiful young girl, full of life and always smiling. I will always remember hearing the lively Japanese between her and her sister Terra over the fence. I think we are here on Earth to try to perfect ourselves and learn lessons, but she was too perfect and too smart too fast. She was on a path to incredible Grace and Intelligence, and I can picture in my head what an Incredibly beautiful woman she would have become. I can't even express how sorry I am for your loss, Junko, Cory, Terra and the rest of your family. From my family to yours, big huge hugs.She will be forever missed and loved

Me and Reina were very good friends, I really missed her when she moved and now I guess she just moved further away this time.

Adam told me that Reina was a wonderful girl and extremely kind. Adam didn't get a chance to know her very well the year that they shared a classroom as Adam was sick for that year of school, but she made an everlasting impression. We are so sorry for your loss. Reina will be missed every day by many.

You have all been in my thoughts and prayers for weeks now. I only wish that this had ended differently. Reina was always a joy to have around. Her quiet smiles will be missed by many around our building. Junko, please take all the time you need. I miss you, but you need to take care of yourself and your family more than anything right now. My greatest wish is that your hearts are filled with wonderful memories of the 10 years you got to spend with such an amazing young woman.

My thoughts are with you. Reina was a great friend. She was the best at soccer. She was so creative, smart, funny and much more. I am blessed to call her a friend. You will be sadly missed and never forgotten. Your friend Mackenzie Reimer.

Reina was very adorable, modest, yet very keen to learn Japanese. She always attended my Japanese class and was there to learn. Her smile was always bright. whenever I asked her to answer my question, she seemed so shy, but what she said always made me smile because her answer is just right. I will never forget when I was told by her mom that Reina told her, she enjoys my Japanese lessons. I would like to keep working hard for our heritage language program, so that I can contribute to students like Reina, who want to learn language, Japanese culture, and simply be a wonderful person in our life. I really do miss you, Reina.

Reina was one of the brightest students in my Japanese class. She was able to read and write about 300 Japanese letters (kanji). Her conversation was very smooth as for her pronunciation, it was simply perfect. Her writing and drawing were excellent. I enjoyed so much reading your diary. I was planning to do many different new things in my class with Reina but unfortunately I won't be able to do so. Reina, I will never forget you and I will always remember you. You can see me from heaven now. I promise I will keep class running and make it more interesting, as you were there. Your Mom and sister, Terra can always count on my support. Dear Reina you will stay in my heart forever.

We are so deeply saddened by Reina's passing. Many tears have been shed in our home for the loss of such a lovely little girl. Reina, Terra and our daughter Kanna spent many hours of laughter and joy on our little farm, jumping on the trampoline and running through water sprinklers and playing with dogs. We will never forget her spirit... and and our farm will be forever honoured by the love she showered on all of us. Her passing too soon... and so sad though they are will never erase the mark she left on our hearts.

Reina was a good friend to me in grade 2 and 3. Although I only knew her for a short time I will always remember how kind and intelligent she was. I am grateful for the friendship we had.

First time I met her, she was one year old. Reina was my daughter's very first friend. I remember Reina's beautiful curious eyes, tiptoe, fluffy brown hair and pink chubby cheeks. I am thankful we had the oppotunity to know her, spend time with her.We will not forget Reina. Our deepest condolences to Junko-san, Cory, Terra and family.

I wish Reina hadn't died and that I could see her one last time. She was my BSFF (best soccer friend forever). She was my friend even, more than my friend, she was part of our soccer team. And our soccer team is a lot more than just a team we are like family. Now when I play soccer, I will think of her and I will try to win for her. So now she is in a better place and I hope she can keep playing.

My heart goes out to the family. I only met Reina once and thought what a lovely little girl. Life has many pitfalls but memories keep us climbing back.

Reina was a great kid and I still can not accept that she's gone. I remembered her dance, paint , Japanese writing, skating. (And fighting with Terra)I never forget you and miss you every moment.

I remember when I met Reina, we were both the same age at the time and the first thing I thought was that I have a relative finally who is exactly the same age as me. She was flower blooming and growing each day. She had a passion for everything including being a great cousin. I remember we laughed and chatted and always had fun. I hope she has a great life in heaven and a big field to kick soccer balls on. Rest in peace Reina. Our deepest condolences to Junko,Cory and her little,fun loving, sister Terra.

Reina was a true gift to those who knew her. Her soccer skills were among the best. She was a great team player and a pleasure to coach. She will be missed on the field but remembered at every game.
