Today is the day you went home to be with the Lord. Son, I have recently learned that on the Tenth we are to celebrate the Day of Atonement. It's an official day for holy assembly, a day to deny yourselves & present special gits to the LORD.(Lev.23:27). Kala you were and also will be a special gift to us. But the LORD needed you to assembly, with Him on this day. Mom, Jermain we miss you & dad so much but we know that God wanted you to be with Him. What better place to be in Heaven! Son you will live in my heart forever until we are together again. LOVE YOU Babylee

Today is Mother's Day, I had a bless day with Jermain & his family, but something was missing you, dad and my mom. It made me sad, miss your smile and laughter, miss dad still trying to celebrate his birthday after it has passed. Missed mom cooking and words of wisdom, but I thank God for the beautiful memories. I know we will all be together in God's Kingdom one day. Miss you all so much. But must fulfill God's mission now. Love you so much

Happy Easter, The resurrection of Jesus Christ. Kala, because He lives you live also.
Kala, God gave you the VICTORY on 9-10-2010. Your were a man of God. Death has no sting, because it was defeated at the cross by the "Blood" of Jesus Christ on the cross.
Mom, miss you so much

(SHARE)I have something to share. All you'll burden he'll bare. He'll catch you when you fall. For he sees and know all. Their nothing hidden from his eyes. For my God shall always provide. For he's king of kings. He's in control of everything. For his present is like no other. He's coming for every child girl and brother. For the trumpet shall sound and we'll all bow down. For he'll returned in all his glory. And than only than I'll tell my story. What God have done for me. He set me free. (Amen, Amen). May the spirit of the Lord be with us all.

Hi Baby, As, I look over pictures and sit and remember how it use to be it was a good time. I miss you and dad sooo much how can this be dad, Jermain, Dad and I was suppose to be enjoying retirement together. You always made plans for us to take trips, you set everything in place. Mom always remember you telling me mom it's your "Time" to go forward with God's work. So with God all things are possible and I know God is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. But, I still miss you and dad. Like today it's super bowl day, I miss fixing meals for you and dad, I even try to look at a movie sometimes it all makes me sad because you & dad are not there. That was your and dad specialty. Jermain and I do but them he have to leave. Oh well, mom love son.

Kala, it has been six years since you have gone to be with the Lord. No day goes by without missing you. Your laughter would fill up a room. I miss your hugs, and hearing you say mom I love you.
Today, I place flowers on your & dad grave. Jermain daughter helped put them in the cups she is only 4 yrs. old she kiss her hand and touched your marker & said I love you. It made me cry she also did your dad's. She look at me and said granny it's time to go. That was priceless!!

I didn't know that Jesus love me so (I didn't know). I didn't know that he'll nerver let me go (I didn't know). I didn't know that he'll be on my side I didn't know. I didn't know his word would always abide. I didn't know. I didn't know that he'll be with me in my last days. I didn't know. I didn't know he'll be with me always. I didn't know. I didn't know he'll catch me when I fall. I didn't know he'll become my all and all. I didn't know. One thing I do know he took the blinder off my eyes. He took away all my pride. He build me up when I was down, he made me strong in areas were I was weak. His holy face I shall always seek. So remember when you'll going through. There no secret what God can do.

God so many people are broken (INSIDE). No were to no were to hide. For you're weary mind nerver seem to sleep. So many tears they're cry. They're thinking should I give God another try. For his arms are open wide. You make the decision you decise. In a loud voice he says look to the hills and stand still. You ask yourself God how can I stand still when I can't stand at all. It fells like my legs have been taken and I'm about to fall. That's when he reaches out his mighty hand and help you thru it all. In many, many cases you have to turn you'll plate down. Knowing someday you'll rec'd a beautiful crown. So soon my friend soon he'll say job will done. From the man who gave his only son

A Prayer Today
I said a prayer today, for people you left behind. It's hard for them to carry on , when they are stuck in the past.I pray God will heal their hearts, that seems to be breaking apart. I pray God give them strength to make a new start.
WE miss you so much, that words just can't say.
We miss you so much every day.
The son, the nephew, the cousin, the friend . For you Kala life has just begun.
To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.We all know this is true, but that doesn;t stop us from missing you.
So say a prayer today, that there will be peace and the pain ,in our hearts will finally cease, we can move on with Gods help and mercy, and the sun will shine were clouds made it dim.
The hope of glory will help our hearts mend.
I said a prayer today. Minister; Debra D Ross

I thank God for the young man you were you brought so much love and compassion into this family. You knew how to deal with each of our situations. Jermain and you would talk and laugh, mom & dad miss that. You would come and give each of us hugs daily and say I you. We all miss that. Mom can hear you saying mom you really cooked that thanksgiving meal. Mom waits and looks for you to come through the door. It's lonely here without you. It's a joy when Jermain and his family comes home to visit. That grand baby keeps us going smiling when she here, and we can't wait until we see them again.

To my baby boy Kala, two years have gone by and yet it seem like yesterday that you were here with us. Mom went to place flowers today it was so hard because I still can't believe it. Mom don't understand and wish that I could have taking your place. I know Kala you are in a better place but why? to a good Godly person like you. I know you want mom to keeping praying and fight the good fight of faith. I will son, you just continue being our guardian angel. Even dad is talking more about how he miss you. God blessed us with a beautiful grand daughter, and Jermain is so happy. So mom and dad must be here for Jermain and his family. Kala, I really think she's going to have your spirit. Something she do reminds me of you, but there is only one Kala and no one can take your place.
How blessed are we who put our faith in God, for no matter how difficult it is to bear the pain of parting, we have His promise that one day we'll be reunited with those who have gone before us to our heavenly home.

Time has gone by so fast, it has been two years to the day since you left & went to be with the lord. Everyone here misses you even your big brother misses you too, although it has been a day to day struggle accepting the fact that your gone and we cant have those crazy conversations about life its even harder to understand why you went so soon. For your brother it has been hard to cope life without my baby brother, I have prayed and asked God many times Why? Help me to understand
and to bring happiness back to this broken heart. God listened and blessed me with a wonderful wife and a beautiful baby girl. This by no means replace my baby brother but it does ease the pain when times get rough & makes life enjoyable again. We all miss you here & dont think I forgot about my baby brother.

AS A NATION “NEVER FORGET 09-11-2001”
One Nation Under God
(Acts 17:24-26)
Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
__2 Timothy 2:3
Kala, soldiers don't give up when things get hard. Kala, that was you and you taught us all how to be a soldier here on earth and now you are a soldier in God's army in heaven.
They don't put down their weapons and stop what they have been trained to do when they find themselves facing the enemy.
According to the Apostle Paul, as good soldiers of Jesus Christ, we don't either. As believers in the Body of Christ, we don't either. We don't fall apart when persecution and affliction come.
Kala, the family is so proud of you. You will always be in our hearts.

Being a great
MOM
that can be acquired
at some university.
It can't be learned
from a book
or measured
by a salary.
Yet being a great mom
is probably the single
most important contribution
anybody could make
to this world.
I should know.
Because I have you,
a truly great mom.
I can't imagine
a force more powerful,
a love more valuable,
or a gift more lasting.
My grateful heart
is living proof of tha.
Happy Mother's Day, your son Jermain.
Kala, you and Jermain are God's greatest gift to me. Unspeakable joy mom have when I see you two together laughing, playing video games, watching DVD"s. Mom just love watching you two do nothing sometimes or sleeping. You two will always be my babies I didn't care how old you are.
Kala, pray for Jermain he is working so hard preparing for his baby. Jermain is going to a great dad, just like I knew you would be. Kala, Jermain treated mom and dad to a great meal from Famous Dave, that was a blessing to mom. Wow! mom get a day of rest.

Good morning Kala
Yes, I'm up early can't sleep, mom is missing you more and more each day. I'm waiting for you to walk through that door. Every time Jermain comes home you should be with him.
Well, on the 11th Kala dad celebrated his 60th birthday, I know he wanted to see you also. We were just remembering how you and Jermain would give dad the same card & gift you each don't know what the other was giving. That was such a joy to him.
Dad had a surprise from uncle Ricky & Israel for his birthday they paid for dad's birthday dinner. WOW!
Well, Kala that big smile & kindness is missed daily.

Ruth and family,
Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain, when you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight, I am the soft star that shines at night. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die.
God Bless all of your family,
Love always,
Dee

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY - KALA
Well, Kala, it's the time of year that people around the world show their affection for each other.
Kala, I have learned what God's love is all about. It's uncompromising, " Love Never Fails"
You live a life that showed us all how to love each other daily. From a toddler hugged each of us daily.
In the morning before you went to school, again when you return home and before you went to before bed. That's love son, mom will never forget. You prayed will us and told us how much you loved each of us. What precious moments son.
God sent you here to show us how to Love each other daily.
GOD IS LOVE!

Hi kala,
It's just mom missing talking to you. I know you would be saying mom pray!
Kala, dad & I were just talking about old times with you & Jermain growing so fast and remembering all the fun times we had.
I know Christmas is over, but not to me. I remember having Christmas in April we saved your gifts until you came home. We did the same for Jermain too!
Dad & I are waiting for Jermain's baby
to spoil, now.

Hi Kala,
Mom can't believe another year has gone by and I'm bless to be another year older. I can't believe you finally moved, but why so long away? HEAVEN!!
Kala, you always did things in a big way. I can hear you saying, mom didn't worry, I be back! Mom you never know when or how I'm going to show up! I might be walking or running down the street, standing at the front door, a waiter in at resturant, etc).
God, do give us assignments, and angels come and go from heaven to earth daily. God has a blessing for you mom hang in there. I know how much you miss me. I see and hear you crying all the time. Mom, I miss you too! I'm there believe me.
Kala, mom remember all the good times we had you showed mom so much once you return home. Know matter how you felt you always had time for mom.
I Miss the telephone calls even if, I was downstairs. You would call me a ask mom what are you doing? Are you coming back up here? Yes, Kala. If, I was at work mom what time are you coming home? You knew, but you just had to ask and then you would start laughing. My daily hugs and our conversation time is greatly missed.
Now, I know how my mom felt when dad or I didn't spend time with her and talk with her. It's lonely.
I remember you driving all over town one birthday you just wanted to show mom a good day. Then you brought me some new sneakers and whatever I want to eat. Of course, it would be seafood.
Kala would look at me and said mom do you know how much I love you? Mom, I wish Jermain was here with us.
I would tell kala, Jermain will be home soon he's protecting us. I remember when Jermain would call or e-mail it was exciting for me to heard his voice. One year Jermain surprised me with a laptop computer.
Or, the time Kala and Jermain gave me the same birthday cards for my birthday. They were always thinking a like even though they were miles apart.

I've always been proud and grateful

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Party over here and Party in Heaven, son with the saints. I remember how much you love going to New York. You love watching the ball drop.I remember the last time you and Jermain took a trip to New York and the fun you both had.
Kala you still make me laugh at some of things you do now to let me know you are near.
Death has no hold on you son, victory is yours now. Eternal life you can go from heaven to earth and sometimes you slow down so I could see you.
Just as Jesus came back to witness to the disciples so will you to the family. Many will know that God is real.

Another Christmas has come and gone which seems odd because your not here physically. I understand that your in a better place however the family has not foregotten you and that you still remain close to our hearts. You know, everyday is a struggle waking up thinking I cant see my brother anymore, although I know you not far away from us. All we can do is take one day at a time.
Love

Kala, mom miss you so much your smile and laughter lite up the room. It's Christmas time and you enjoyed making us all feeling love.
Mom miss hearing you and Jermain laugh as you looked at DVD's or play games.
Keep that beautiful smile helping others in heaven. Kala you had an uncomprised "LOVE" in your heart for your family and people.
That's a gift that only God can give someone. May we all learn to love each other as you loved us.

Wow! It's Christmas Day, Kala I know there must be a glorious time in Heaven celebrating the birth of Jesus. Mom can see you shouting and running praising God, and working to help others understanding "Faith" in His Word.
Mom, remember how much fun you made Christmas for us buying gifts and wrapping them with a whole role of tape. You could use up some tape, but I miss that. Remember how we made our first gingerbread house it was a site, but we have so much fun.
Oh, you loved watching mom cook, I know you were here with me today. Then we all would be waiting to see if Jermain was coming home. You know we are still waiting for Jermain. Dad don't say alot but I know he miss you being here to bring that joy to us all.
Well, son keeping praying for us here.
Love Mom

I remember you, dad and I went to Va. Beach after thanksgiving to sent time together after you moved there.
You showed us sooo much love and fun in your short life here on earth.
This family is blessed with God's "Love". That alone is enough to be thankful for each day.

As one whom his mother comforteth, so will I comfort you;
Baby, I know The Lord is with us all daily. We will be together again.

Kala, this is the first Labor Day without you being with us. Last year you were here. Mom remember sitting by your hospital bed looking at a DVD with you Fast and the Furious you loved that movie.
Movie time was something we did all the time as a family. Now it's just dad and I sitting on the couch in the family room watching movies. Baby you are missed.
Last Labor Day you were here with me. Mom miss you so much!

Wow! Kala time has gone by so fast but yet so slow all at the same time. Last year this time you were here with us.
Aug. 31,2010, mom will always remember. Jermain was retiring and we could not be there with him to celebrate his 20 yr retirement from the Navy. Kala you were fighting to stay alive. I remember putting the phone to your ear so you could hear and talk to your brother for the last time. I know how much you two love each other.
Mom can hear Jermain saying hang in there Kala, big brother is on his way home.
Now, Kala is telling us to hang in there! Run our race for the Kingdom of God!
Jermain, Mom & Kala(the fearless 3:)

Hello Kala,
Mom was just remembering today on 08-19-2008 how much joy you brought to the family.
You and Jermain, would have so much fun just talking or looking at a DVD together. Mom loved hearing you two laugh and challenge each other with the video games.
This time Jermain, surprised us all and got on the Apollos Chariot at Busch Garden and he challenge mom, so I had to do it. Dad just watched this time, Kala and dad like riding challenging rides.
I was so glad I rode with my two precious sons.

Joni and I were sorry to hear of your loss. From the description of Kala you shared with us, he must have been an outstanding young man. We appreciated his covenant partnership with us as he helped us reach the lost and hurting through his faithful support of this ministry. We pray that your grief is tempered by the knowledge of Kal'a abiding faith in Jesus Christ as Savior. He is in the presence of the God of all creation, and is no doubt awaiting the arrival of all the rest of his family there around the throne.
Ruth, please accept our condolences on the loss of your son. Our prayer for you is that peace of God and the comfort of the Holy Spirit surround you and all your loved ones throughout 2011 and beyond.
Yours for the Harvest (March 25, 2011)

Kala,
I miss you so much. I went to visit your parents last week. They look good physically, but emotionally they miss you soo much Kala. Your mom gave me your old boogie board, so next time i goto the beach to see Tim, were gonna boogie board with you brother. I wish you could see me today Kala! I got my life together, I am clean off drugs, working 2 jobs, and paying bills. And I hang out with my mom everyday, just like you did. Your Mom misses you Kala, and your friends do too. Until we meet again. Your brother in Christ

ALways remember that GOD love you and so do I.
July 3, 2011
Its hard to understand the how or why this happened to you and It is an uphill battle every single day realizing you're not here to talk or share lifes expiriences such as laughing at comedy or just talkin about what we were going to do next in our lives. I wanted you to be here so I could tell you I'm going to be a dad and you an uncle. Right now I am making the best of a terrible situation that has befallen on the Lee family, mom has her moments and dad really misses you. Just because your body is no longer here doesnt mean you're gone from our hearts. We will always miss you on those sunny days to the cold winter nights and everything in between. It is an honor to say you are my brother.

Kala, mom will never forget the good times we had the laughs, the hugs and most of all your smile. Kala, mom can feel your present around me all the time, why would it be any different now. You are just in the Spiritual realm watching over us. Here's a poem I wrote:
IT'S AN HONOR
God so Loved the world He gave His only begotten son
It's an Honor
The gift of grace was given to us by God.
It's an Honor
Though I walk through trials and tribulation the Lord will always be my confidence
It's an Honor
God has given His angels charge over me to keep me in all thy ways
It's an Honor
He's standing there waiting patiently for us, because He cares
It's an Honor
No worldly job can give you the Joy and Fulfillment as witnessing for the Lord
It's an Honor
As He also told Moses, Noah, Malcolm and King to lead His people. He's telling us today
It's an Honor
He's raising up a New Army of Leaders to carry His Holy Words though out the world
It's an Honor
So as I go through life witnessing for the Lord, may my light shine
brighter than the morning star for the world to see
It's an Honor
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
It's an Honor
He that overcometh shall inherit all things and I will be His God and he shall be my son. It's an Honor
Written by Ruth H. Lee
Kala, as we celebrated Memorial Day and the 4th of July. It was
An Honor
To see the fine young man you turn out be. A Godly man that trusted in God until the end. I'm getting excited because I know mom will see and be with you again. Together we will start our prayer and praise team in Heaven as we did here in the earth.
Love you Baby

To Otis and Pinky
Thinking of you
We were so sorry to hear of Kala death. Our hearts go out to you, we can only imagine the hurt and pain of losing a child. We pray God's strength will endow both of you at this time as he continue to heal your broken hearts.
We would have been there with you, if we had known. Pinky thanks for the call and the service program. Mary and I have been praying for both of you during this time.
"Wait on the Lord: and be of good courage,and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say on the Lord." Ps.27:14
Otis and Pinky, hang in there, things will get better. We pray God's blessing on you this New Year. We'll talk soon.
God's blessing be with you

To The Lee's
God's gift of time
we all need a time grieve-
quiet time for reflection
to sift through memories
and come to grips
with what has happened.
we need a time for tears,
not for the one who is now
at peace in heaven,
but for ourselves as we realize
that things will never be the same,
we will need a time to just "be"
when we can open ourselves to God
and let the reassurance love
star to heal our broken hearts.
Praying for you and wishing you peace.
Love Barbara (snig) and family
