Moments from Hannah's Life

Hannah Rose was a perpetually compassionate person with contagious laughter and a finely tuned sarcastic wit. She was a top-grades student who had just been accepted to Utah Tech University. She would have studied neurobiology. She was a CNA who cared for the elderly.

She loved animals. She loved music and art. She loved swimming. She had a beautiful voice.

She would fight for the underdog. She loved broccoli, ketchup, Tomkha soup and fresh salad rolls with peanut sauce. She travelled to Istanbul, Barcelona, and Dublin.

She was learning to speak Turkish. She dreamt of inspiring the building of “Trash Island”; a man-made island built from recycled waste. She envisioned a reality TV show documenting a community living there, filled with intellectual residents who collaborate on progressive efforts to save the world.
