Alithia was a gifted artist, leaving behind drawings that are now beyond priceless to her parents.
Her parents said Alithia wanted to be well known for her art and that the shooting is a bad way for people to know her.She consoled the parents of her best friend in Grand Prairie who was killed by a car, with a drawing that will soon hang in the White House. That's one of the reasons, along with witness accounts why Alithia's parents believe she made one of the heartbreaking 911 calls from inside her classroom before she was killed.
"The little girl stated that Alithia had her phone I was gonna call 911...we always told her, call 911 if anything happens, and we believe that Alithia probably asked for a phone to call 911," Ramirez said., one for every child killed, refused to rush in until it was too late. "The way we look at it, it's just a smack in the face that they didn't want to do anything," Ramirez said."It's spot on, cowards, I don't understand how they can just be that outside door hearing gunshots with kids screaming what are we doing how. That has to tell you something in your head hey what are we doing we need to do something. If they were going to die, die a hero," Ramirez said. with the world what a wonderful little girl Alithia was.
It meant the world to her parents who can at least take some comfort in knowing her dream that her artwork would be seen by everyone will come true. "It's beautiful because that's what she would've wanted, she would've wanted to get her art out there," Ramirez said."Pretty sure she would've loved it."
