God Bless the family of Sister Rochelle Magee, her son Isaiah and our cousins Donna and Carl Liggins.

I've lost a number of people in my life, but I've never felt the pain of losing someone closer than Rochelle was to her sister and our cousin Donna. It's been a long day of celebrating and I'm sure the pain will slowly but not entirely go away. The singing, preaching, prayers and all the stories we heard today truly shows how blessed we were while in the presence of someone who cared so deeply and gave so much to her craft and the community. May the family find comfort in knowing that their Mother, Daughter, Sister and Friend is now at Peace. May the Grand Architect of the Universe continue to embrace us in his Loving Arms, as he does each and every day for each and everyone of us. Rest in Heaven Sister Rochelle Magee, Rest in Heaven!!!

For every life has a purpose to fill, a purpose which us humans can seldom infer. But she was a gift from heaven, whose purpose was to make this world understand what love, friendship, goodness, and humbleness was all about. Goodness belongs to heaven, and I know she is watching us from there, bestowing her beautiful smile upon us. May her soul rest in peace.

I am very sad for the loss of our sister Rochelle Magee!! Rest in peace my beautiful friend and thanks for the memories! Until we meet again :)

Rochelle my dearest friend, I remember back when we worked together and all the laughs, fun times and tears from all the laughter we shared. You always knew how to make the best of every situation; those were the good ol' days. As we all grieve over your passing I know there is one thing you would want all of us to hold close to usthat Life is a gift from God. So no matter how much sorrow we have in our hearts right now you would want us to remember that our children, family, friends, neighbors, and strangers are all gifts to be cherished. Although some days may be full of suffering and sadness, each breath, heartbeat, and thought illustrates the beautiful gift of life. When a loved one is lost, try to avoid the feeling of being robbed or wronged. Keep the positive memories alive and thank God for the blessings in our past, present, and future.
This my friend I will always remember..
You are greatly missed, but the memories will live on,
Lori C.

Let me be the first to say how sad I was when I first heard of your passing. The memories of our childhood and school days came first. The smile you always had and the joy you have brought to so many people. From Utterback Jr. High to Pueblo High School class of 1978 you will always be remembered. There will be a reunion of good friends to celebrate your life. May God bless the family and my prayers are with you all. You will be missed "Rochelle"
Love Ya!!!
