    I was a friend and classmate of Prudi in high school. She definitely stood up for the underdog. It was because of her that the bullying I was subject to stopped. Thank you, Prudi, rest in peace.

I remember going to her house and her mom was great, and always let me feel welcomed. Prudy , you helped me through some hard times. Thank you for that. I know you’re in Heaven, and we will meet again. Love Karen
