Shenna,
You and your family have been in my thoughts as I know the time draws near on a day that Jae'quan was called to duty by our Father. Remember how much he loves you and helps to protect you and his brothers from a place of such love and peace. You are a wonderful mother and we are all proud of you!

Finally bringing my self to the point of letting you go on to do greater work for the kingdom. It has been extremely hard to say good bye therefore I will settle for "see you later" Phi. Words can never express the love "Ma-Ma" had for her first grandson/son but I believed you knew that I was always there for you. I finally stopped crying and rejoiced on the fact that I was always the best grandma that I could be to you. I absolutely can not express the pain created by the hole you left in my heart but I will close with telling you something that I often reminded you of and that is "I LOVE YOU DEARLY AND I WILL MISS YOU UNTIL I SEE YOUR SMILING FACE ON THE OTHER SIDE". REST IN PEACE BECAUSE HEAVEN WILL NEVER BE THE SAME SINCE YOUR ARRIVAL!

Words can't express how much love I have for the Mabry and Jackson Family! It is has been many years since we have seen each other, but I always Think about everyone. Jae'quan was a very special person in my family the day he was born. Time may have passed, but the Love has never faded for Jae'quan. Please know that Jae'quan has set the bar very high for all of us, young and old alike, to be an amazing steward on our Lives. take not that we can find comfort that the way Jae'quan lived his life, that he is seated with the Master and Creator. Hold on to Gods unchanging hand, and he will guide us all. I love you all, and I will always be here.

I had the privilege of assisting Jae'Quan with a business plan he was developing. He left an impression on me as a fine young man with a ton of potential. Sometimes the Lord calls special people like Jae'Quan home early because He can use them for even higher purposes. I will never forget Jae'Quan. He will serve as an inspiration to me going forward to do all I can to help and encourage students at NSU. May God bring peace, comfort, and understanding over your loss. God Bless.

Sheena , I am truly sorry for your lost. But our God never makes no mistake when picking a special" ROSE". Phi was a special person he wanted. Eventho it was a short time on this earthly plan. Cherish all the beautiful moments you had with him, keep them in your heart as the days go by. But always remember, he will always be there in spirit watching over you and his brothers. Praying for you continually. Lots of love and God bless you and yours.

It really hurt my heart when I heard of Jae'Quan passing. I worked with this young man at Old Hampton Community Center and he had so much going for himself. Always polite when he would come in to work or to play basketball. He knew what he wanted out of life. You will be missed. To Sandra Mabry Jones and family, my prayers are with you and your family.

God be with the family as you all transition during the time of grief. Know that Jae'Quan was such a great person, inside and out. Having known him as a fellow classmate in French class and other functions/events at Phoebus High School, he was a true example of a young, smart, well-rounded young man. He'll be missed! He was needed more with God in the Kingdom! Stay encouraged and know that God will, Take care of you!
