I am one of the Chicago Police officers who handled Maya's accident. I have made it one of my missions to police Maya's & other intersections & to strictly enforce stop sign & yielding to pedestrian violations. I place a "Remember Maya" sticker on each of those violator's tickets. I hope to never have to handle another accident such as Maya's. I am sorry for your loss and I only wish I could have been there to prevent it.

Dear Hirsch Family,
My heart is sadden by the grief you have experienced over the past year. You are truly a remarkable family. Your family has touched mine. I talk fondly of your family. I shared with my six year old, Jay (my second son, named after Maya's grandfather: Jay Hirsch) the grief I felt over your loss. We prayed for you and he reassured me with great conviction that Maya was without any pain in Heaven and playing with her grandfather. My God keep you and comfort you.

Dear David, Danit & Family -

Our hearts have been with you over the past year since Maya's death. We lived in Lakeview until recently, have small kids, and have many friends whose kids attend CJDS. We have always felt a connection to you and your loss. We hope that you continue to be strong, and that each day gets a little easier.

Dear Danit and Family,

We don't you either but we do know Maya would've been in our son's class this year at CJDS. We think of your daughter often through wonderful stories we have heard from other people. I lost somebody close very early in life and all I can say is the pain will ease over time and you will be happy again. You will never forget Maya or her memories and she is there right with you everywhere you go. All our love to you and your family.

p.s. I take a lot of pictures at CJDS so I see your son (Benjamin) often. What a delightful boy!! He looks so happy and grounded. I don't know how you and your family do it. You must be an incredible mother and your kids are very lucky to have you.

Dear David, Danit and Family:

I just found out about the loss of your precious daughter, after catching up with David last night for the first time in many years! I haven't been able to stop thinking about your family, the depth of your loss, and about little Maya. I looked up the incident online, and was glad to be able to see a picture of her. What a gorgeous little moppet with such incredible blonde hair!

I was part of hiring David for his first job after Emory, and although it's been many years since I've seen him, when I saw Maya's picture, I see David's face in her smile. I can only imagine how much you miss her, and how difficult the anniversary of her passing must be. I know first hand that no matter how careful you are as a parent, terrible accidents can and do happen. I'm just so sorry it happened to your family, to your gorgeous little girl. Please know you are all in our thoughts and prayers, and we're sending light and love to you. I have heard the first year after a tragedy is the most difficult. Now that this has passed, may your memories of her incredible little spirit and happy life sustain you as you pour your love into Ben and Gabriel and the little one on the way.

I imagine little Maya happy in Heaven, and enjoying her time with God until you meet up again. Blessings to all of the Hirsch's.

May 21, 2007

Although I do not know you, I want to tell you how deeply sorry I am about Maya's death. I have thought about your family extremely often over the past year, and you have been in my prayers. I hope that you will eventually find the strength to move on. God bless you all.

Dearest Danit, sweet little Ben, and family,
I don't know if you are even reading this.
Danit, I just found out Maya has been hit by an automobile and killed-almost a year ago. All I can think about is Ben and her playing in my store and being so silly and sweet. I am SO, SO, SO sorry. I cannot stop thinking about her sweet little spirit and you and Ben and the baby all together all the time. You are a wonderful mother Danit. Ben is a wonderful brother. Life is so unfair. I cannot even believe this has and is happening. I am sending many thoughts of love and strength to you and your family. I hope there is a heaven and beautiful Maya is in a beautiful heaven. Never give up hope. With Much Love, Margaret (from Traipse)

Maya's Parents,
I just want you to know that your daughter has not been forgotten and never will be in the years to come. Maya is a reminder to us all how precious life is and that we should cherish every day we have with our loved ones. May your pain ease away with time how ever strong, and be replaced with special memories of Maya that you can pass on to your children and grandchildren as time goes by.

Dearest Dr. and Mrs. Hirsch,
We met your husband this morning and were profoundly honored to be shown both video and still pictures of your beautiful Maya. Her giggles, smiles and sweet voice have not left my mind since.
Your family is impossibly brave. We wish for you days ahead filled with laughter and strength knowing that Maya is a part of you and your boys.
With deepest respect,

your sister Debbie is a treasured friend and she recently told me of your terrible loss. I have been mourning your precious Maya in front of my computer ever since. I cannot imagine what you are experiencing yet I send you my sympathy. Debbie is one of the kindest, strongest, and most wonderful women I know so I'm betting you are surrounded by a family of many great people.

Dr. Hirsch and Family-

I wasn't sure how to properly express to you how sorry I am about your loss. Since I never had the pleasure of meeting your daughter, I can only imagine how beautiful she must have been having such beautiful parents. It brings tears to my eyes to know that your family has to experience such a devastating loss and that the rest of the world will not get to experience all the joy I'm sure Maya would have brought to it. Please accept my deepest sympathies and condolences.

Dear Renee, David, and Danit-

We grieve with you on the tragic death of Maya. While I didn't know her, I heard about her regularly from her grandmother, and shared her joy as now I share her sorrow. My first thought was that she is now playng with Jay, who will take good care of her. I can only hope that knowing so many people share your grief will somehow lessen its burden on you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Love,

Joanne, Paul, Peter, Michael, and Matthew

Dear David, Danit, Ben, and Gabe,

I am terribly heartbroken over our loss. Maya was

the most gorgeous

little girl in the entire world. I don't think there

was once that I

ever saw her cry. She would always just run around

the family making

sure she said hi and talked to everyone she could.

She was not even

scared of my dad. I can't imagine what you must be

going through but the

entire family is there mourning with you. I am sorry

I was unable to

attend the funeral but I was hopefully there in

spirit.

Love,

Ari

May 23, 2006

Dear Hirsch Family,

I have been in shock since I heard of your tragedy. Maya was such a remarkable little girl with so many talents and such a wonderfully complex personality. I attended the services Monday, and I want to thank your family for being so brave in sharing your loving memories of Maya. I used to be Maya's gymnastics teacher(one of the many things she excelled at) and hadn't seen her in a few months. At word of the accident, it was easy to picture her bright smile and her little pink leotard tumbling around, but I have to thank you for reminding me of things like her messy hair and dislike of ponytails. I cannot imagine how hard it was for you all to get up and speak because it was impossible for those of us listening to hold it together. From the bottom of my heart I thank you for helping me to remember Maya (and even learn more about her.) I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and that Maya will forever live on in our thougths and in our hearts.
