Excitement
Her paternal grandparents in Tampa, Florida, were more than happy to take care of Macy since her dad was rarely around.
As she grew into a young woman of bright, respectful, and brave qualities, they were delighted to watch her develop. Making people around her proud was always her goal.
Her excitement about prom was contagious. She saw prom night as a night to celebrate who she was. As a tribute to her late mother, she wished to show respect for her culture. No one could have predicted the disastrous outcome.
