Dang! Nesha I just found out! I don't believe it! This is so surreal! When you told me you were sick I would have never thought how bad. You kept a positive attitude about it. Every day you did your best to make sure you picked your kids up from school. And you never stopped smiling. This was right before you were called home and totally unexpected!You showed your strength til the end.....May you forever rest in peace.

Nesha...I will miss you, but not as much as my Channing will. You made a great impact in her life. She will always love you and miss the special times you shared. I am glad that she had the pleasure to have had you in her life. You will be forever missed.

Baby girl I still can't believe that you're gone. I'm still waiting on you to walk through my back door or even sit on the end of the bed at your house just talking. I miss you like crazy but I know that you are no longer suffering. The strength you showed was so amazing. You fought a good fight and that's what is sticking with me. In your words: “Take a chance” is what I learned from you. Take a chance and fight, be strong and fight until God see fit.. Every time you got information you smiled and said, “But that's just man talking, they're not God.” I am so happy and honored to be your sister in law. Actually, I'm happy and honored to be your sister, because that is what we are and always will be. I love you so much Nesha, thank you for loving me and the kids. Thank you for being there, thank you for being Nesha, sister and Auntie. Until we meet again baby girl….forever being strong a taking a chance…
