Tomorrow will be the sixth Christmas you've been physically away from us and it still hurts just as much! Our son is growing up to be a young man and he misses you so so much. I talk to him about u almost everyday if not everyday and it amazes me the things he remember and the way he speaks of you. I just wish we could see you, talk to you, or simply just hear your voice because that would make our days much more brighter. I know its impossible so until we meet again we will continue to keep your memories alive. Merry Christmas Ja'red we love you!!

April 5, 2018
Good morning Ja'red I'm just thinking about you as usual. I was riding with Jay and I promise he remind me so much of you sitting on my side with that look on his face. It's such a warm feeling I get when I look at him because he is every piece of u and it makes me so happy because I have a major piece of you. From the way he holds his mouth, to the way he positions his eyes, and even the way he moves and talks all I see is u and it's such a bittersweet feeling because I don't know rather to laugh or cry. We miss u like crazy and talk about you daily we will always remember u and celebrate your life with every breath in us Baby. Until we meet again rest easy J Black

Although its been 4 years today it still doesn't sit well with me that you're gone. I think about you and reminisce about you everyday. Ja'red I will forever love you and you will forever live through us, this I know, but it's still so hard. I wish things were different but I know I can't change what happened so I will continue to pray for us and u continue to watch over and protect us. I love you I always have and always will.

I can't wait to see you again but until then I take pride in knowing we have an Angel whonis watching over us everyday... Until we meet again R. I. P. WE LOVE YOU
February 22, 2017
I try not to think about the fact that you're gone, but how can I forget someone who was so special to me presence? I question why, but I may never know. All I do is think "what would life be like with my uncle"... It upsets me to know that I can't get a verbal response or know if you're listening when I pray, but just know I love you man!

December 31, 2016
It's almost a New Year at 12 it will be 2017 and I still can't help but be selfish. I still haven't found peace because I still question the fact that you're gone. Even though I trust in God and I know he makes no mistakes there is still a part of me that sometimes question Why. I love you so much always have and always will. I just wish you were here to create memories with Jay and give him the experience of growing and learning with and from his Dad!!! We miss you!!!! until we meet again. Rest in peace
December 25, 2016
Merry Christmas baby!! If you was here this day would be so special for us. We need you and want to see you, touch you, hug you Jared baby we think about you everyday all day.

Continue to watch over us especially him. We love you baby sleep peacefully.

Hey Jared what's up? It's me Jaylen. Listen man I miss you more and more every day. I know you're in a better place because you aren't a bad person. I remember the good times we had together and will always remember them. I love you Uncle Jared.
August 30, 2016
Hey Ja'red I been a little down lately but I keep praying for some type of peace and hopefully soon I get it. I just don't understand why things happen the way they do and it makes me so angry at times. I try to keep the faith and tell myself things will get better with time but that isn't true at least not for me. I don't think this pain will ever leave nor will the anger and confusion that I feel. I love you so much I always loved you so much you were and always will be my best friend. You were always there for me and I just really wish I could have been there for you. I know you resting in peace baby but I ask that you continue to watch over us all. I love you Ja'red

Just sitting here thinking about you as always. I miss you so much but I'm coming to accept that God needed you more than us. It's still just really hard for me though. R.I.P. Ja'red
April 18, 2016
To hear our son just say when he get older he's going to be a scientist so that he can create a time machine so that he can go back to 2014 in January so he can make sure he stop what happened in February devastates me! That just made me cry and he can't understand why. We miss you Ja'red more than words can ever express. Everytime I think he has made peace with it he says something that lets me know it weighs heavy on him still. We cant wait until the day we can see you and be with you. Until then Rest in Peace
March 17, 2016
I can't sleep. I've been up just thinking and of course I can't stop thinking about you and how things would be if you were here with us. I know it would be so much different. You made everything better and I could always talk to you. I can't wait until the day we meet again. R.I.P. JA'RED

Hey baby what's up... I been thinking about you as usual but I know you know that. I miss you so much and it really hasn't got any better for me. I especially hate this time of the year because it's slowly approaching that very bad day and I hate it. I look forward to the day we can meet again. I picture us just hugging and laughing, crying and talking, just good vibes. There are so many things I would love to physically share with you although I know you're here with us every step of the way I still just want all of you here. Well Baby Rest in Peace and watch over us... I love you

September 4, 2015
I been thinking about u all-day and there are so many things that make me smile but then I always cry because I really can't pick up the phone and call u. Who would have ever known that we would be apart like this? I have a very hard time going through life without u being here. Although I try not to bring u up so much I always have u on my mind and Ja'red the pain that comes along with my thoughts and feelings really gets unbearable. I love u more than words can say and I miss u more and more everyday. See u when I get there baby but until then watch over us.
August 1, 2015

Happy birthday baby we love you and miss you. I wish heaven had a phone so we could call you and tell you just how much we love you even if we're still distant. Sometimes just hearing your voice would be enough to get passed the anger and resentment of not having you with us. We will forever love you Baby and until we meet again continue to S.I.P. And Again Happy Birthday wishing I could turn up with you

Happy birthday little bro!!!! Wish you were here to celebrate. It's okay though, you can celebrate behind the gates with Zakiyah.. ...
February 23, 2015
It does not seem like it has been a year and somedays I still can not believe it even happened at all. I thought you would be here forever in a physical state that is but now I only have you as an angel which is so unreal. I never imagined in a million years I would feel a pain like this. I love you and miss you so very much. We will meet again and for that I can sometimes rest with peace. Sleep in peace baby and forever watch over us. Protect his mind and shield his heart from any pain and negativity. We love you and when God is ready we will see you again. S.I.P. BABY #GODGOTHIMAVERYGOODANGELONHISTEAM
