‘I never thought in a million years I would be writing something like this and did not want to put it on social media but as most of you know, Hallie was due to open her dance school next week and we feel this is the best way to get the message out to the parents and students. 

‘I feel I owe it to Hallie to tell you all how amazing she is. The most beautiful girl inside and out, with the kindest heart ever. 

‘She cares about everyone and family is everything to her. She’s passionate, driven, determined and focused. 

‘She had such big plans for Ignite Dance Space and put her heart and soul into creating something special. 

‘She is everything to us, a truly beautiful and special girl. We are so privileged to have had you for 18 years. 

‘I just wish that we could wake up from this nightmare and have you back in our arms. We are the proudest parents and so fortunate that you’re our girl.

‘I would always tell Hallie that I love her more than life. Well yesterday our lives ended.

‘No parent should have to go through this. Our hearts are completely broken’

Her family posted the tribute on a GoFundMe page that has been setup ‘to supplement anything that could go towards Hallie’s send off, legacy, or memory’.
