I couldn’t imagine dealing with hate on social media at 22. I can barely handle it now. Some of you should be ashamed of yourselves. ??#HanaKimura #RIPHanaKimura

Hana Kimura lit up every room she walked in. She was sunshine and one of the most selfless ‘uman beings I’ve ever met. I’m one of the lucky ones who got to experience first hand how special and loving of a person she is. Hearts are hurting right now. I’m hurting right now??Rip??
