Tarita,i now know why we have to let each other know daily that we love each other, because tomorrow isn't promised..I know this is superhard for me because i hadn't talked to you in so long and that bothers me..i guess i just thought you would always be here for me whenever i needed you. I do truly love you, and will miss you with all my heart daily. You have ALWAYS been there for me when ever i needed you and even when i didn't need you, you were there. Thank you for coordinating my wedding..and just for ALL that you've ever done for me. Thank you for always being the best of a friend that anyone can be. I can't say i can see you living in heaven or anywhere else and being happy without your Keeaje, and the same goes for him. You two were the BEST EXAMPLE i've seen of a Mother or LOVE FOR FAMILY. And to Keeaje,your mom, dad, and your brother i send my deepest sympathy, and want them to know that if they need anything,anything i'm here.One thing i do know is that with the family that you have he will be okay. (THIS TOO SHALL PASS SAID THE LORD). Do know that you will always hold a spot in my heart sister. I'll love you for always. LOVE JACKIE p.s. Heavenly Father i come before you, and i pray strenghth for this family. Lord soothe their hearts. Lord keep them at peace. Lord you said all i have to do is ask in Jesus name and it shall be done, so in JESUS name i pray comfort for the bereaved family. AMEN

Ms. Tarita, your family, both immediate and extended, will miss you so much. Our minds can't understand why God called you home at such young age, but whatever His reason may be, we know that you are in the arms of our Eternal Father, resting peacefully in His presence. We are praying for your son, Keajee, and you know that we will do all that we will do to take care of him. He's apart of us. You are always in our hearts FOREVER. "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" (2nd Corinthians 5:8). Rest peacefully, my sister.

I never knew Tarita, but I know she was a very beautiful and creative woman. I 'm sorry she died. Tarita is certainly in God's Memory.

I did not know Tarita personally, but we attended the same church New Hope Missionary Baptist, where she was in charge of one of the dance ministries. She always had such a beautiful smile and she was such a talented young lady. I always thought she was in her teens because she looked so young! I am going to truly miss seeing her minister to us through her dance ministry. My prayers and thoughts are with her son and family this holiday season and always.

To my wonderful little cousin whom I had the wonderful opportunity to have grown up with in the same household from the day you were born in Jamaica and when we moved to NY, you will be dearly missed. Our last conversation 2 weeks ago was organizing a family reunion and it hurts my heart that this is how the family will be coming together, however we will come together to praise you and your life. I am damn mad and angry that you were taken from us too soon but a friend told me "To be absent in the body is to be present with the lord".I know you are in a better place now, say hi to mama for us, I know she will take care of you. We will help take care of Keajee, don't you worry. I will always cherish you in my heart and soul. Rest in peace!
