Dominique Ra'Shaad Green

Hello My Heavenly Angel,

This is your Mom. I miss you so much. Today is your one-year Heavenly anniversary. We celebrated it on Saturday, Sept. 13, 2008 @ Jedi's Restaurant. A few of your homies were there too.

Today, Bud and the Smith family are honoring you and Brandon with a Memorial Banner on 27th & Chase (where the accident occurred) and having a vigil this evening at 7 pm.

Your sister (Kristian) wrote a poem and we put it in the paper today to honor you as...

I use to kill you in dancing..Im a beast but I learned from the best..You and Miguel. Haha I remember when you and krissy...

Happy Birthday DOMMO!!!

I know that you are having the time of your existance. We are trying to cope with not having you here. That has been the most difficult part of our lives. I can ONLY IMAGINE, how your party is and how it had been. We will have one for you and celebrate the joy of God loaning you to us as long as he did.

We pray that God continue to see us through; no matter how hard, long or trying it may be - we can rest assure that we will be together...

Dearest Dommo,

19 years ago, today, I gave birth to a beautiful bouncing baby boy and we named him Dominique. He brought tears to my eyes (as with every other child of mine) because he was so gorgeous. YET, I knew it was something special about him. He was always smiling and he always did something to make me smile. That baby boy, yet he, grew up never stopped making me smile - but he also made other people smile. With his boyish charm and playful ways people attached themselves to him...

This is to my son - Dominique Ra'Shaad Green - my angel. I sign this book today in honor of your memory, love, smile, and more. I LOVE YOU!!! Today is Thanksgiving Day (exactly 2 months since you passed away) and you aren't here to share it with us. I am saddened by your absence but blessed by your spirit. The word Thanks and Giving has a new meaning to me now that you are gone. I am so "thankful" for being able to share 18 years of your life with you. The times we prayed together, laughed...

My heart and prayers go out to Domonique's family during this most difficult of times. I also lost my 18 yr. old son last year in a car crash when he was coming home with 3 of his friends late at night. I have no magic words to heal your grief, but I do care about your loss and truly understand a lot of what you are feeling. May God bless you all.

My sincerest condolences to the Green family and friends of Dominique...the story of these four friends has brought me to tears for you all and I just wanted to let you know you are in my heart. My nephew was killed at age 16 by a hit and run driver... I know how wrong it is for a parent to bury their child.. for a teenager to bury their friend.. what a tragedy.. know that you are not alone in your grief and are thought of in many hearts.
hugs, Karen
proud aunt of...

To the Green Family,
My heart and prayers go out to you and yours in your time of loss. Though our paths have never crossed, I,as a mother,feel your pain. God made a promise to you, and that promise shall be kept. From your friends in Virginia, all the way to California, we send you our prayers.
