Hello my Jiggly Puff, This is your mother who misses you very much. 20 yrs ago i gave birth to a loving free-hearted young man who touched many lives during his short stay on this place we call earth. Yesterday was not a very good day for me, but with a lot of praying and a lot of crying i made it through. Son, you are always in my thoughts i close my eyes and i see that beautiful smile that could light up the darkest of anyone's days. You are loved and will never be forgotten..............love your momma (ms. Valeria)

HELLO!! It's Me, Moma #2, thats what I told Jamal Long time ago that he could call me....during his time as a Senior at Armstrong & he said with a smile ok!!!!! Well, as I type this right now, it is still very unbelieveable to ME & my boys & definitely to my NeeNee...his wife, but me as a mommy to put in my mind that he is not here now!! I considered Jamal as my 3rd boy & 1 of my 4 SUNFLOWERS, that evil on the streets so cold heartedly took away from my Special SUNFLOWER FAMILY!!!! I have to say Thank U Jesus for your Strength, your great brand new mercies & grace & for your deep Love & Blessing & guiding LaNiece & their dear close friends to make it everyday ...Jamal's Mommy & brothers & all his family...me & all my family for making it everyday through this horrible tragedy in our family, of losing a lovely, respectful, caring, fun, funny, kind, quiet young guy who just was tryin to make it through life & do right & have somethin much better for him & his wife, who he told all the time, as she told me he said to her, its goin to be alright LaNiece dont worry we will be fine!!!!! Right now, as I type this His brothers, Nee , sister n law & their mom & friends for life r at the big concert they have put together to perform in his lovely caring -Young Rebel Memory..i rather say inhis HONOR tonight & I know he is there too in the great hype rapping spirit that I learned of alot more about sad to say since he's been gone!!!!! Father GOD In The name of Jesus Please let Jamal M Holland know up there that we all Love him down here dearly, but we sure know that U LOVE Him GREATER & that we know with no doubt that he NEVER EVER has to worry or scramble no more because He's with U, smiling everyday!!!! Moma #2 & your 2 brothers, your NeeNee's brothers r missing U so much Jamal!!!!

I am so sorry to hear about your loss Niecy. I know it has been years since we've talked but I do remember how much you two loved each other. Sid was a great friend and person at heart. I know God won't put more on you than you can bare so stay strong. And to the rest of the family, I do send you my prayers. Keep your head up Niecy.

I am not sure if I should be signing the "guest book" but as i read through all of the entries, and i have been recieving all of the calls and emails and text messages i realized how much both my husband and I are loved! I want to thank everyone for all the love and support during this very very emotional time, and I want to also express my sympathy for his family because this lost was not my lost alone... To my binka, there is no question or doubt that i will always love you, and I thank god for allowing me to have the time that I did get with you, and for being able to experience the things i experienced with you!! I will never stop being your Mrs. Rest in peace and I love you...
