Grace McComas, a 15-year-old Glenelg High School sophomore from Baltimore, whose favorite color was blue took her life on Easter Sunday, to end the pain of a cyberbullying campaign against her.
According to her father, Chris McComas the cyberbullying had lasted for months and was carefully documented by the family. As blue was her favorite color, a social media event — blue4grace — was begun by friends and quickly went viral. The mourners at her funeral wore blue nail polish, blue-striped ties, blue jewelry, and blue dress shirts.
