My Dearest Son Nicholas,
You were truly my life and I miss you more than anyone will ever know.
I know you are receiving the blessings that you so richly deserve and the glory in the Lord's house. Nothing can harm you now, you are free of all the bad elements that were in your life.
On January 25, 2005, there was a celebration of an ending to a wonderful and glorious life of you Nicholas. Our Dear Father wanted and needed you on that day.
You will remain with me forever.
Love You Always,
Your Mother.

Hello Nicholas,
Well, I guess this will be the last time that I write you. It has been a year since you have parted from your family. I truly must say that you were and still are a One of a Kind Cousin.As I have said before, I will miss you dearly. There is not a day that goes by that I do not think of you.I miss you teasing me with your southern accent. I miss you calling me asking me when I was going home for my breaks. I can still remember the last time that you called, and I wish that there were many more calls from you. I saw DJ here at Tuskegee, because we had the Morehouse Classic basketball game. I didn't even know that was him. I told my friends that he was my cousin's friend. Then, I got choked up, because I had wished that you were there with him. But as one of my friends told me, it was good that DJ was here because you were there too.
I know that you come and visit me because I can feel your presence. Well, it was a pleasure to have you as my COUSIN. Only our family knows how close we were and it hurts so bad that I will not be able to see you, hear you, touch you, or just be around you. I Love You with all my Heart and noone can take my love from you. Take care Nicholas Morris Long. Rest in Peace.
:)

Nick,
I know that you are watching over all of your family and espically your daughters. I know that you miss them very much. They are growing into beautiful little girls. I pray that one day all your little girls could get together and share the memories that you have enstowed into them. I know that they all have different but distinct memories of you in their heads. Everyday we try to remind Makhya that you have loved her from the day she came into your life and that you will love her until you all meet again. RIP Nick, may your legacy never die.

Hey Nick,
It's amazing how fast a year has gone by. You are truely missed, every weekend Makhya wakes up and says "My daddy is gonna take me to the skating rink." She misses you very much and she really hasn't grasp the fact that you are gone from her life forever. She looks at your pictures and laugh as she remembers the times that you all have spent together. I know that you are watching over her. I look at her and she has the same characterists that you carried. She is just as silly as you are and her personality reminds me of you everyday. I truely miss you and may you rest in peace.
Love always,
Chasity and Makhya

So until we meet again, know that you are forever and a day in my heart. I will make sure to continue to ask God to watch over you as you rest in sweet peace:)
When we ALL get together, what a day of rejoicing that will be...

Hello Nicholas. Its Tabitha and your JoiJoi. Im a day late on writing on your web page but of course you know what I was doing on yesterday so please forgive me. It is so hard to believe that it has been a whole year since you went away to rest in a better place. It still doesn't seem real to me. It seems just like a bad dream that won't go away. I know you had a good time out there with your daughters on yesterday because I know they had a good time.
Looks like to me everybody is hangin in there and doing fine. All your girls are getting bigger and they are very bright. Please remember that there is not a day that goes by that you are not truely missed. Everynight before we go to bed, Joidan make sure she kisses her daddy(your picture) and make sure I do the same and every morning when we get up. I just want to say that we are blessed to have you as a part of us and that you will always be remembered and truely missed. I love you very much and will see you again. Joidan says hello and that she loves you very much.

Nick,
This will be the last time that I write in this guest book. It is time to began that road of healing and closure. I pray to God that he will help us get through our grief because it is so damn hard. If I could bring you back, you know that I would do it in a heart beat.
If I could change the hands of time, I would do it, but it just so happens that I don't have that power. Our family will never be able to fill in the missing links of those that have passed on, but you guys will always be in my thoughts, heart and prayers. I am not going to say goodbye, I will say see you later.
Nick,"Even As I Am Holding You, I Am Letting You Go." Sail on Nick, spread your wings and soar the skys in your everlasting life. Continue to live strong.
Love you infinity,
Auntie Alla

To My Dearly Beloved Son,
I wanted to say hello and that your missed very much. Not one day passes by that I don't think of you. You were and still are, my everything. We had unconditional love for each other. I can never be denied the love we shared and those 23 years of memories. Nicholas, I will always cherish your memories, your infectious smile, your teasing and the joy that you brought into my life. I can laugh about your most precious childhood memories, it seems like yesterday that some of them took place. I can see how you touched so many people from what has been written in this Guestbook. Some people have no idea the impact you had on their lives and the void that you have left behind.
I am so thrilled that you were a very important part of my life. I'm just saddened by the sudden departure. I love you and miss you with all my heart.
Love,
Your Mother

Dearest Nick,
There is not a day that goes by,that my heart and soul does not pain and cry for you. I know in my heart that life will never be the same for me. Yes, it is almost a year since you left us and believe me, it has been a difficult one. I know the road ahead is going to be trying at times, but my faith and belief in God will help light that road. You will always be in my heart, soul and mind. You are that bright star that shines down on me at night. You are the sun that rises and bears warmth on me. You are that moon that sets at night and lights my path. You are that cool winter wind that slightly chills my body. You are that warm calm summer breeze that makes the hair on my arm stand. You are that beautiful flower that will bloom each spring. You were that beautiful baby that stole my heart 23 years ago.I know in my heart that your spirit is with us and that you are watching over us. I will never forget your beautiful smile and handsome face. I will never forget the words when we would hang up" I love you to". I miss you Nick and love you infinity. I look forward to the day when I will once again hear your voice say these words" where's Ms. Jenkins?" Stay safe with God, for he will continue to guide you and will restore your soul.
Love you infinity,
Auntie Al

Hello Nicholas,
I have not spoken to you in a while, but I spoke to you last night before I went to bed. Nick, I really miss you and there is not a day that goes by that I do not think about you.It is still unreal to me that you are no longer with us. It will almost be year that you have passed. I can still remember like it was yesterday when the last time you called me. Usually around this time, I will call you or you will call me and ask me when I will be flying home for Thanksgiving...but I guess not this time around. I take each day at time but it is really hard, believe me. I know that I will not be able to write you anymore pretty soon, but I just want to tell you that I will be graduating on Mother's Day (May 14,2006). I hope to see you there. I know that you will be there. Well, see you later for now... Until We Meet Again. Love You Always and Forever. Your Cousin Janeesa

One certain man, one special man, was always there for me. I still live in the wonder of the world he helped me see.
One certain man, one gentle man, was just the friend I needed. His smile was the reward I prized, his word, the word I heeded.
One certain man, one honest man, taught me to work with pride, To try and face defeats with grace and take my wins in stride...
One certain man, one caring man, gave me the best he had, A legacy of lasting love .
With all my love,
I truely miss you
soooooooooooo much.

What's happenin'! Hey Nick, I know it has been a while since I touched down, but know that you are ALWAYS in my heart. I recently visited Chuck E.

Know that I miss you and love you. So I guess I'll let you get back to your mansions and streets paved in gold! Don't have too much fun without me...Until we meet again...

Nicholas (Nick),
We all miss you and it is a known fact. I really did not get the chance to watch you grow from a boy into a young man. When I heard the disturbing news about your passing I was devastated, my heart sunk to the bottom of my stomach. I wanted to reach my arms out to your mother and hug her endlessly. I felt like calling each family member of mine (close/distant cousin, aunt and uncle)just to say "I Love them and they are in my thoughts always" because tomorrow is never promised. Sorry, I did not get to do that with you, but you will always be in my prayers & my thoughts. My first memory of you was at one of our family picnics (a long time ago),I believe you were about 4 or 5 yrs old. Then like 2 maybe 3yrs ago at the family reunion in Chicago, I could not believe how much you'd grown ( a real gentleman). Remembering how much you made my sister & I laugh at the dinner table & me telling you that you resemble Nelly (the Hip-Hop star). It's seems like just yesterday. Nick, we love you dearly & we miss you!!! My heart goes out to the Hall & Long Families. Much, Much love, cousin Tam

Well I know it's a every other day thing when I write you at least a couple of lines in your book. But I like 2 keep up and know how you are doing plus I've been missing you dearly. Nick....... It's so hard to keep up with your mother for the simple fact when we talk I think of you so much more than I usually do. But me & your mother still conversate with one another on a day 2 day basis. But good night to you sweetie and may GOD keep you under his wing. I love you Nick

Sassindy said hello. I keep you close to my heart. Only you and I know how special our relationship was. I keep you in my prayer. REST IN PEACE. LOVE YOU.

I miss you so much and wish you were here because I know you have had a wonderful birthday(because of course I would have had something in store for you) only for you. I would have invited you to the spot and let you have a whole lot of fun. I came to see you and of course your vase was full but I got you baby always.
I try not to cry so much and continue to be strong for your mother especially when I am with her. Keep doing what you do and continue to watch over us . I love you and of course I know you loved me always no matter what went on. Til we meet again , Happy 24th Birthday and still many more to come. I love you Nicholas.

Well Nicholas,it's almost been five months since you had passed. I know that it is late, but I hope that you had a wonderful Father's Day. I think about you all the time, and to tell you the truth, it hurts like hell. All I do is cry,cry,and cry when I think of you.(I'm crying right now). At times I feel like destroying things, but that's not going to make things any better. I have a lot of anger inside of me now that I have never had before. I just want to SCREAM. I am very disappointed in myself for not spending a lot of time with you. Continue watching over your family, and also your loved ones. I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER. UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN. Love Your Cousin Janeesa

Hi Nicholas. Its me Tabitha. I wrote to you on June 19 2005 but I see you didn't get it. I first want to wish you a Happy Fathers Day because I know if you were here you would be happy and you are the worlds greatest father.
I really do miss you and think about you everyday and how great of a man you were. I know that you would have been very excited about fathers day because thats your time to shine, thats your day. Don't worry we still can see that bright smile of yours no matter where you are.
Your mother,Nunk,and I came out to see you on Saturday and what a beautiful day it was. I like to come out and sit and talk to you when Im down because I know you always listened. No matter what time it was or what you were doing you were there. I just want to say thank you and that I love you for being the wonderful person you are.
Im not going to go on talking too much because you know I always have something to say but I am going to leave you with this memory and now we can laugh about it.
I remember when we first met and we didn't know eachothers name you would speak to me and say "Hey baby momma" and I would smile and reply "Hey baby daddy" and look at us now. I thank GOD everyday for blessing he sent to me on the day I met you. I thank him for the beautiful kids that we made and thats why I can honestly say there is no other DAD like you. You are special and one of a kind. And I love you for that.
HAPPY FATHERS DAY baby and MAY YOUR SOUL REST IN PEACE.
I LOVE YOU NICHOLAS,

Hi Nicholas. I am writing to you again because on Sunday,June 19 2005 it is your day beecause you are the worlds greatest dad. I wish you were here to enjoy your day. You deserve it. Joidan and I miss you very much and think about you all the time. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think or talk about you.
I remember when we first met (some odd years ago), You wanted to talk to me but you didn't know how to approach me. Before we knew eachothers name you would speak and say "Hey baby momma" and I would reply "Hey baby daddy". Now who would have ever thought that would come true the way that it did. I thank GOD everyday that I met you. Who would have ever thought that we would have kids together. But its okay because we are both blessed and everything happens for a reason.
Your mother,Nunk,and I came to see you on Saturday to wish you a Happy Father's Day and it was a beautiful day. Joidan made you a beautiful poem that was only made for her father. It is very beautiful Nick and I know you would love it the way that you love your girls. Baby rest in peace and remember we will meet again. Until then our birthday is coming up and will be celebrated with a whole lot of fun and love. I love you very much Nicholas. Continue to watch over us and we will forever keep you close.
Sharon you have raised a wonderful man and I want to thank you for that. I know that he was everything any mother or woman could ever want in a man. You raised him beautifully and now may his soul rest in peace. Thank you for the great times we share together . Thank you for being there through the good and the bad times. Thats a mother for you. I know Nicholas was growing and still learning to be the best father he knew how to be and you did a great job. Joi Joi and I love you very much and if you ever need anything or anyone to talk to when your sisters are not available, I will be here. If you need a shoulder to cry on , I am here. May your days become brighter and filled with so much joy. Within due time the pain will ease up just a little because I know Nicholas would want you to be happy. Remember he will always love you and that will never change. He is watching over you so keep on talking to him he can hear you. I love you Sharon.
Your friend and granddaughter

Hi Nicholas. I know you are watching over everyone,especially your mother. I just wanted to take a little time to say that I am sorry for everything. I truely miss u and think about u everyday. It still is unbelievable. My prayers go out to your family everyday. I know you are now in a better place watching over us. I just want to thank you for sending your mother my way. She is a beautiful lady and Joidan adores her nanny. Thank you!
Im not going to talk to much even though I have plenty to say. I just want you to know I really miss you and still truely love you. If I could turn back the hands of time I would. I would start all over again. I want to thank you for coming into my life and I will see you again.
There is a new song by Mariah Carey that I know you would enjoy and everytime I here it I think about you and only you: When you left I lost apart of me; Its still so hard to believe:Come back baby please, cause we belong togeher. Who else am I gone lean on when times get rough; Who else gonna talk to me on the phone til the sun comes up. Who else gonna take your place,there aint nobody better. Oh baby we belong together. Nicholas I will see you soon. In the meanwhile, continue to watch over us and guide us through. May your soul rest in peace and tell Joidan's twin we said hello. Again to the family,my prayers and deepest sympathy go out to you and remember: GOD DOES NOT CALL THR QUALIFIED; HE QUALIFIES THE CALLED.

I am writing on behalf of my sister Sharon Hall mother of Nicholas Long Jr. and family. We would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation for your kind thoughts and words of expression that you have written in this Guestbook. It makes us happy to know that Nicholas touched so many hearts and souls during his life. The family has posted pictures of Nicholas and will continue to do so on this website and hope that you will view them. We wanted to share with all of you these memorable moments that we had with Nicholas as a family. He was full of energy and laughter during his time spent with family members and we always looked forward to his coming to Boston. To know Nicholas was to love him and we loved him dearly. He will live with us throughout our lives. Nicholas, I hope you have found peace and that your spirit lives with us each day of our waking lives. WE LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU!!

Well Nicholas it'll be 3 months in 2 days that you've passed. And I can truthfully can say that I think about you every single day. I try my hardest to keep in contact with your mom as we thinking/discuss about the past we've incounter from you. Even though we really didn't know each for that long, but I felt that we knew each other for life. And I was glad I got to incounter alittle bit in your lifetime. Right now in class we're taking up Phlebotomy/EKG'S "our" teacher is the man we used to crack jokes about in class.I can truthfully say that i mis you day in and day out. Your always in my mind,body and soul. To Ms. Sharon i'll be calling you soon.

Nicholas,
There isn't a word that anyone can think of how much I MISS YOU. It was very devastating and it still is, that my favorite cousin is no longer with me. My heart is TORN into tiny pieces for your lost, and it will never be the same again. I think of you constantly. You were and still are like my LITTLE BROTHER. I can remember those times at my house where both you and I are playing with my dolls, and doing their hair(ha,ha,ha,ha). Or how about this, pretending that we were talking spanish to each other(LOL). Those were the good days, and they still are because I will never forget them. Remember when Kiana tried to jump over the guardrail, and we were staring at her. I always thought that all of us would grow old and tell our grandchildren stories about our childhood. I guess that will never happen. I can tell you one thing, I will tell your children how much of an Excellent Father you were. Noone could ever say that you were not an Excellent Father. Nicholas, I always ask myself why did this have to happen. I already lost two other cousins, and I do not need to loose anymore. I know that you are watching over all of us carefully, but most of all keep watching over your Mother and Father. To Auntie Sharon, I am really sorry that your only son is no longer with you, but remember the tears that you shed, let those tears be tears of joy, tears of happiness, and tears of rememberance of Nicholas. I love you dearly. You are always in my heart. Well Nicholas, I must go, but don't forget to come to Douglas's Graduation(He would appreciate that). Don't worry, I will be graduating in May 2006(I hope to see you there). Meanwhile, GO AND SPREAD YOUR WINGS HIGH IN THE SKI, AND FLY AROUND THE HORIZON. REMEMBER "BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO MAKES THE LORD HIS TRUST" PSALM 40:4
I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER. LOVE YOUR COUSIN JANEESA

Dear Nick,
On Jan 25, 2005 the Hall Family lost a beloved cousin/nephew.. Since then the memories of you have flooded my head.. There are days that i'm happy, days when i'm just sad. I simply can't believe you are not around these days.. You may not be here in person, but you are here in spirit... I can hear that southern accent of yours.. (LOL) I miss your teasing, you definately had a sense of style.. I never had a brother, but i always consider you my other half. To my Aunt Sharon, your guardian angel is watching over you daily and thinking of you.. You were the best mom/dad he ever had!!! May his legacy live on forever.. Miss You/Love You!!! Cousin, Bobby
P.S. Good-Night Baby Boy...

To Sharon, Nic was your only son and I know that it is hard and hurt like hell. But, God made you a strong women.With family and true friends WE can do this. Nothing will ever take the hurt and the fact that you miss him so much completely away. But, with time you will be able to live life as he would want you to (happy). I know that my dad (Calvin) misses Nic too, we've talked about it and he has hard time showing it. I'm working on him for you. I want to see him be the man you need to help you through this. And even though we have had our times I have grown to love you as a stepmother. I'm here for you as a shoulder to lean on or a ear to hear. Love your grandkids as Nicholas would and let the LORD handle those things that you can not control. I promise you GOD will take the best care ever of NICK! To the rest of the family be strong and be the support that Sharon and Nick,Sr. needs. Love Terell & Keyiana

There isn't a word in the dictionary that could describe this loss or describe the void that is left in the hearts of the HALL and LONG families lives. To my sister Sharon, there will never be another Nicholas M. Long Jr. You were left with the best gift of all, 23 years of memories embedded in your heart. Cherish those memories and they will lift your spirits, Nicholas would want that. Your were the most important person in his life and he loved you most of all.

Nicholas you was a very special classmate to me, you stuck out in the crowd. You made sure you always kept your group of girls in the back of the class room happy. But now that your gone it doesn't even seem fun anymore with out you. But "WE'RE" going to make it to graduation and when we do "WE" will represent you with love.
