Aileen Dawn Harkins
June 3, 1981 - September 10, 2007

"Happy Halloween Sweetie! I love you. xxxxoooo"

"I had the pleasure of having Aileen as a studen for many years. She was a bright, kind and caring child. Last year I saw her at her sister's wedding and saw how she had matured into the same kind of adult. Her light in the world will be missed. "

"Sending up lots of love hugs and prayers. Miss you so much and think of you constantly. Hard to believe 4 months have come and gone already. I love you baby! Mommy "

"The angels will watch over you Aileen, rest in peace. My condolences to your mom Linda and sister Alicia and the rest of you family. Charlene"

"We all miss you and love you. We alway think of you in our heart. Our condolence to your families and friends. XOXOX's"

"I just received the sad news about Aileen, one of my former students from the Healthcare Billing and Coding program at NTID. Just to let you know she was a very bright and cheerful student that worked hard. She also was a free spirit and always had a story to tell during class. She will be missed and I hope this message will be of comfort to her family. My thoughts are with you during this difficult time. "

"hey aileen, i got flashback recently sat night, about u of good memories of us tog back in college.. miss u tons"

"Didn't know Aileen wish I did. But heard a lot about her from her momma. Can you miss someone you never knew? I wonder because i feel like I do. Anyways lots of love, hugs and prayers to momma, Alicia, Joey and Gene. Love you."

"Aileen will be missed. She in God's hand. Rest in peace. I will always remember how good you was to my son Carl. My prayers is with the family."

"I first met Aileen when I transferred into the boces program for the Deaf. It was there that i met her and alicia both, along with my sister Lisa. the aileen i remember as a kid, was someone who was a free spirit, loved to laugh, smile and had a sartastic sense of humor. Shes defenitely going to be missed by many, and our world is one light darker without a free spirit as her. May you always rest in peace Aileen. We'll forever miss and love you always. "

"I'm really missing you sweetheart. I will be going away with Alicia for a couple days to Maine, wish you were coming with us and know she does too. Little Amelia Dawn is growing like a weed. So sweet with Red hair and her mommys temper. Your nephews are growing quick too. Demetri started kindergarten! And Joes boys Isaac is 2 1/2 Jakey is 1 1/2 now. So adorable and so full of energy. They keep your brother hopping. Genes doing good. Finally got his own laptop. I remember how he was always bugging you for yours. We all miss and love you Aileen. Not a day goes by we don't think of you. The world grew a bit colder when you left it, and heaven a bit brighter. I love you! "

"Its been one month now since I lost you, yet still feels like a moment ago. I love you always and not a moment goes by I don't think of and miss you. "

"Hey Luna, I miss you soo much.. i kept going and focus on myself to be better.. wish you there.. I miss chat with you.. and soon summer comming up.. ily.. miss you tons"

"miss you soo much.. year is over now it new 2009.. love you miss u "

"my darling first born not a day goes by that i don't think of you and miss you. :( I love you always and forever pumpkin"

"Happy New Year Sweetheart. I love you! mommy"

"Missing you so much Aileen!"

"Im truly very sorry about your loss> my husband and I met her at NTID.. she was so sweet lady.. and her beauitful smile. Please accept our sorrow and you all are in my prayers. Hugs. Mr and Mrs. Warner. "

"My heart goes out to all your family and I hope that you will be forever resting in peace."

"Linda, Alicia, and family I was so sorry to hear of Aileen's passing. I saw Alicia not long ago in Toys R Us and caught up on where both girls were. Aileen had such a full life ahead of her and the potential to go far. If I can do anything let me know. With all my love, Terri Lemister"

"Love you Aileen!!"

"I did not know Aileen very well, but I know she was very special to her sister Alicia. The few times I had the opportunity to meet her I saw a happy vibrant young lady who seemed very sweet. I was deeply saddened to learn of her sudden and tragic passing. My thoughts and prayers are with the entire family, and particularly Alicia during this very difficult time. I hope that Aileen finds herself in a better place and I know she will live on in the hearts of many people."

"Beautiful Young women will always remember her in her party Dress At my Kids Bday Party "

"God bless you Linda, I pray for you everyday."

"All my love to your family, Aileen. Rest in peace Sweetheart."

"Happy Birthday Aileen. I love you!"

"I met her wonderful mother, Linda, thru the WB Harry Potter website. Linda is always kind, loving, and giving and has filled my life with joy. This is a terrible loss of a beautiful, vivacious young woman. I was not fortunate enough to have known her in this life; but, hope that someday we will meet in the glow of her warm smile on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge."

"Missing you so very much lately, seems youre always on my mind. so many memories of years gone by too quickly with no chance to say goodbye. I love you peanut always and forever, mommy "

"My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. "

"One year ago God took you home and it has left such a hole in my heart. Not a day has gone by that I don't think of and miss you. I can close my eyes and see you as you grew from baby to womanhood. So many memories flash through my mind and I wish I could hold you one more time. I love you sweetheart always and forever."

"I have never told anyone this but I guess now is the right time to say it. Aileen, you were like my "big sister" when I was growing up. When I was young, I looked up to you all the time and you were actually my ONLY role model. Times may have caused us to drift apart by a whole distance, however that doesn't mean I'll forget you or any of our wonderful times/chats/memories together growing up. Wherever you are, I am reassured that you are currently in a better place and unlike us all, you won't have to deal with Pres. Bush or even listen to him talk anymore! In all seriousness, I send my deepest condolences to Alicia and the Harkins family. Don't worry, I know you all will get through during this painful and difficult time no matter what. (And also, sorry for the long entry, I guess I definitely went way overboard with writing, yikes!) Haha :) Ok, you all take care and see you at the wake. "

"I am not a close friend of Aileen Harkins. I met her at Rochester Institiute of Technology in 2000. I have always thought of Aileen as a very intelligent person and one that would've been very, very successful given the chance. Rest in peace Aileen Harkins. May you find the happiness that you lacked in life. And may you fly with the angels."
