Cheron I miss you so much, my heart hurts everytime I think or say your name. I still pick up the phone to dail your number when I have something to tell you. Then I remember that you are not here. I know that you are not suffering and crying and there is no more pain. Which make me happy and that stops me from crying. You will never be forgotten, but will be truley missed.
Johnny and Shemakia I love you both and will be here for you always. Love Punkin

Ma I MISS U SO MUCH. n it's crazy because i never really got a chance to express to how how much u meant to me. When i think about it you been in the family a long time. i remember when we all lived in Chapelle and you and daddy were going out. I remember all the plans you and daddy had before he passed away. Then Johnny was born a few months after. I love you so much. You was the mom that i always wanted. i will never forget all the times i stayed the night and you,me,Sham, Johnny (and who ever else was there)all would act a fool, laughing at each other. Ma it's so much more i would like to say,but I LOVE YOU MA N I'M MISSIN YOU

I had the privilege of being a part of Cheron's childhood..She was beautiful then and as an adult her beauty was magnified.. It was like the sun shined through her; radiating and reflecting on every one she touched...
I am so very thankful to be a part of this family.. I love you all ....Albie...know that God does not put any more on us than we can handle,,,,Keep the faith

To Geraldine and Family,
You are an extension of our extended family and our hearts are filled with sorrow of the passing of your beloved child Cheron.
Jesus told the World that there are many mansions in his father's house and if it were not true he would have told us so.
Cheron has arrived at one of those mansions. Although the flesh is weak and we cry tears of sorrow, if we can only imagine the peace and joy of the sweet surrender our hearts will feel relief.
May Almighty God continue to keep you covered under the blood.
You are in our prayers.
Cousin,
Sharon,Bop and family

To Shamekia,
Sorry to hear of your recent loss.
Stay strong, especially for your little brother, who has you to look up to as mother. The pain you feel now, may never go away. But it will be easier to bear if you take time to pray. Live life to the fullest and you'll make your mom proud, as she peeks down through the heavenly cloud.
Lots of love,
Ms. Register

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.
Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."
It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man."
God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.
When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.
I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.
There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.
If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.
So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.
And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
