Jermaine Wilson Obituary

Wilson, Jermaine ALBANY Jermaine "Jahkim" Wilson entered into eternal rest suddenly on October 6, 2008 at his home in Hudson, N.Y. Jahkim was born in Albany, N.Y. to the late Dorsine Inniss and Willie Wilson of Syracuse, N.Y. Jahkim lived part of his childhood in Albany and the rest in Hudson. Jahkim was a loving and devoted son, father and friend. The opportunity to be a father proved to be one of his greatest loves. He always put his family and friends first and had everybody's best interests at heart. He kept everyone around him safe. He was everyone's protector. Preceding him in death is his brother, the late Stephen Fernandez of Hudson. He leaves behind to cherish his memories five children, Sadaia Wilson of Troy, N.Y., Jahnaiz of Albany, Jahmirra and Tyree of Catskill, N.Y. and Stephen Wilson of Hudson; one sister, Latonia Tolliver of Schenectady, N.Y.; his girlfriend, Jennifer Johnson of Hudson; and two people who were very special to him, Lynette Smith of Troy and Lakeya Link of Albany; also a host of aunts, uncles, cousins and many, many friends who came to know him as a brother. Jahkim, you will be missed but never forgotten! We will keep you in our hearts and your spirit will live with us forever. Funeral services will be held Monday, October 13 at 12 noon at Union Missionary Baptist Church, 3 Morton Ave., Albany, N.Y. 12206. Viewing 10 a.m. to 12 noon at the church prior to the service. Entombment, Graceland Cemetery.

My sincerest and deepest condolences go out to Jah's family. To know him was to love him. I truly believe that everyone who knew Jah could think of at least 5 times when he had you rolling on the floor. And even more times when he helped you out of a situation. I know I can think of plenty.
May he rest in Peace.

Much love goes out to the Wilson family not because of a loss of someone we all love (present tense) but because of a man that we still know a respect because of what he imparted in everyone that "Maine" came in contact with. I write this to remind us to always remember those that have gone on before us and never forget the legacy they left behind. What's up to the original North Albany Crew!1

You truly were an angel
sent from God in heaven above.
Your shocking death just broke the hearts of everyone you loved.
When I found out that you had died
I thought that they were wrong.
You were so alive - and then
just like that, you were gone.
A flame blown out in seconds,
Confirming our worst fears -
A light that shines no more on earth
for which we shed many tears.
But still you are my beacon
And I need you right now.
You hear all the prayers I say
Because they are answered somehow.
I wish that you could be here,
But in a way you are.
It still is quite a shock to me
that you had to die;
But no one will forget you
And I love you, and goodbye.

I just want to let you know big brother no neck...**smile** that I will miss you, your abuse, knocking out my boyfriends, and most of all you... You are missed dearly...I love you and miss you Jahkim....
