Meredith Mickelson is still mourning the loss of her 23-year-old brother, Daniel, but at least now she'll be reminded of him every day.
Taking to her Instagram Story Thursday night, the 22-year-old supermodel revealed to her 2.2 million followers that she paid a visit to Los Angeles-based tattoo artist Konstantin Noskos, getting the words "guardian angel" permanently inked on the inside of each of her wrists in a dainty, cursive font.
Earlier in the day, she expressed immense gratitude to those who turned up for her late sibling's private memorial/celebration of life, which was held outdoors in L.A.
The model snapped a photo of what appeared to be her hands and a female friend's hands – both holding black and orange butterflies.
"Thank you everyone who came tonight to celebrate Daniel," Meredith captioned the shot, going on to call it "the most beautiful night of my life."
"Thank you to [those who] sent me love in any form," she wrote. "There are no words to express the gratitude I feel towards all of you, especially my friends who have constantly been by my side."
The grieving sister assured her fans that she has "read every single message/DM/card etc." and that she feels "so much love" and "so many blessings."
"I will continue to live in the love & light of Daniel," she promised. "Forever n always my bestfriend [sic]."
Not only did Daniel – an up-and-coming Hollywood actor – have a huge presence on social media, but he was also friends with high-profile stars like Paris Hilton, Delilah Hamlin, Amelia Hamlin and Brielle Biermann. His best friend was 19-year-old supermodel Kaia Gerber.
Family and friends were asked to bring their favorite memories to share at Thursday's three-hour event.
