Jessica Looper wrote a sympathy message

“I knew Gia many years ago in High School. Gia did not have it the easiest back then as part of the LGBTQ+ community. But she anchored herself into my memory because she was so freaking kind and loving despite everything. And years later when my daughter was getting bullied, I told her about my friend Josh who wanted to be Stella. At a young age, Gia exemplified the strength and perseverance it takes to be your truest self. I am glad I got to be a small part of her journey, and her mine.”
