Can NOT believe my sweet "little cousin" has left this earth!!! I remember when Julia told us, "Scott and Jada are having a baby", of course, we were excited! I remember when she was born, I remember the first time I got to hold her, I was 8 or 9 years old and I loved babies and she was so PRECIOUS, she looked like a tiny Angel! I remember the family reunion when she was first starting to walk with her pretty little yellow dress(I think I have a picture of her that day, she was trying to get out the door, I tried to pick her up, but she was Not having that!) she was so energetic and smiling and looking so much like her Daddy! After I got permission to take her outside(Hardin reunion at Allen Memorial) she was very happy!!! Watched her grow up and could Not believe, all of a sudden(it seemed like), she was a star athlete at KM HIGH! Scott and Jada, Logan, Socky and Juanita, and the Ellis', and all that were close to her and loved her, We pray that God will just hold you ALL in the palm of HIS Mighty Hand, today, and in the days ahead! LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!! Ray and Angie (Hardin) Chambers
