When most people think of Tori, they think of a
fun-loving and outgoing kind of person. She never hesitated to try
something new and was always up for a good challenge. She touched the
hearts of just about everyone that she knew, and that is more than most
of us will ever be able to say. A time never existed when she was not
putting a smile on the faces of others, and she was hardly ever seen
with a frown on hers. Tori was involved in a number of extracurricular
activities and clubs including; Key Club, Class Officer, French Club,
French National Honor Society, Whatchamacallit, Video Production,
Yearbook, Field Hockey, Softball, and a number of other activities.
Tori loved to travel, especially to Paris; and was planning on
travelling there more often to visit some family. She was original and
unique in every way possible. Being the spontaneous person that she
was, Tori was never part of a 'group'. Some people viewed her as a
bridge that connected many rivers, and that was very true. Many looked
to Tori for advice. Her friends knew that if they needed something, no
matter what time it was, if it was the middle of the night, they could
call Tori and she would know what to do. She loved to have get
togethers with her friends and have a movie night almost weekly. She
adored Johnny Depp, and had a passion for music. Tori had a love for
drama and participated in nurmerous school plays. Having the
personality that she had, Tori always knew how to entertain her
friends. Playing hide-and-seek in the dark school hallway was actually
what she spent her last hours doing. She had the ability to take the
smallest errand, and make it into the biggest adventure of her life!
Although Tori will not be with us on Graduation Day and Prom, she will
be with us in our hearts and we can take her with us wherever we go.
She was an inspiration to all of us, and she will be missed forever.
Always hold on to the memories you had with Tori, and think of her
often.
