Lakriesha Davis Obituary

Miss LaKriesha Krashelle Davis 1975 - 2003      As I came to the end of the road God placed on my shoulders a beautiful white robe. I began to smile and look all around, He placed on my head a golden crown. To all my loved ones everything is all right; my name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life.      I will be resting in the Rose Chapel of Mabrie Memorial Mortuary today, Friday, August 1, from 1 until 8 PM.      To cherish the memories we have shared I leave my parents, Caster and Carolyn Davis; my sisters, Deon, Kastria and Debrika; grandparents, Joseph and Yola Chavis; a niece, LauryN Brown; a brother-in-law, Larry Brown and many other dear relatives and friends.

FEATHERS APPEAR FROM NOWHERE I MAY FEEL A DRIP OF WATER, KNOWING THAT I HAVE NO LEAKS. THE SIGHT OF FALLING STARS SO OFTEN. I CAN RECALL SO VIVIDLY HAVING A REAL BAD DAY, AND I WAS JUST SITTING OUTSIDE OUT OF THE BLUE THIS YELLOW AND ORANGE BUTTERFLY WOULD NOT STOP FLYING AROUND ME, EVERYTIME I MOVED IT MOVED RIGHT ALONG WITH ME. YOUR PRESENCE IS JUST SO STRONG I WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT IF I HADN'T EXPERIENCED IT MYSELF. MOOKIE YOU WERE TRULY HEAVEN SENT!!! I'M SO PROUD TO BE YOUR SISTER CONTINUE TO LOOK DOWN ON THE FAMILY. KEEP YOUR ENERGY AND PRESENCE COMING I'M LOVING EVERY MINUTE IT!!!!

Kriesha Krashelle,

Words still can not express what impact you had on myself and others. You are in my thoughts and prayers everyday. One day, Iris let me borrow a book to read and I was feeling down one of the days and a picture of you at work on halloween, fell out of the book. I was so spooked but knew you were letting me know that you were there with me and that things will get better. There are times when I get depressed and the first person that pops into my head is you and my aunt! You are dearly missed but I know you and Charles are holding down things up there. I love you and miss you! You are always in my mind, heart and prayers!

Patricia Rodgers

August 26, 2004

Well, it has been over a year since the Lord called you home. Cassandra, Iris, Keith, Damien and I were just remembering you last Friday night as Damien and I celebrated another birthday. As usual, thoughts of you made us laugh and smile. You have not and will not ever be forgotten! Miss you still - ALWAYS!

(Save me a place in Heaven!) :-)

Dear Mookie,



When I was younger, I saw this movie called "Imatation of Life". It was the saddest, but most beautiful funeral I'd ever viewed. Well August 2, 2003, I was actually at one. The atmosphere was so positive & strong, that it was like the re-birth of you, not the death of you. And not once I've seen a whole church of people weeping at a funeral. "Mookie" you were LOVED & no one faked it.

We celebrated a couple of my B-Days w/laughs & smiles. But this certain one "you had to miss", I cried that morning & that's how I know your presence is still here. "GOD THE TIMES WE'VE MISSED & SHARED". I have to give you a special thanks for the last time we seen each other.........



OH! THANKS FOR THE HUG!!!!!

Kris Hamilton

Well, well my dear Mookie..So you made the big 29th in the most grandest locality of all (that great palace ballroom in HEAVEN), which I'm quite sure the best people that ever walked this earth was there in attendance to celebrate it with you. I know without a doubt that with JESUS being the host of the gathering it was such a celestial spiritual event, with your smile brightening up the place there as you did here on earth. Well, baby girl, you keep watching over us down here and continue to be our guardian angel. Its such a comfort to know that Tequia and I not only have one guardian angel, but two. You and My CEDRIC..Love Ya and Missing you always..

YOUR GANNY KISS

PS. I always heard people say that God takes the good ones early, but I didnt know what it meant until now.

I WILL LIFT UP MINE EYES UNTO THE HILLS, FROM WHENCE COMETH MY HELP. MY HELP COMETH FROM THE LORD, WHICH MADE HEAVEN AND EARTH: PSALM 121

MISSING YOU FOREVER

April 17, 2004

IN THAT KRIESHA STYLE THE ONLY WAY TO DO IT. WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS GOING TO BE TEARS AND SORROW (APRIL 7, YOUR B-DAY) TURNED OUT TO BE A DAY OF EXHALEING. WE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME ON THE GROUNDS JUST THINKING BACK ON THE PAST. WHEN YOU THINK OF THE PAST INVOLVING KRIESHA YOU HAVE TO SMILE, THAT'S ALL IT IS TO IT. REST IN PEACE MS. SASSY AND KEEP A EYE ON US TRYING TO GET TO WHERE YOU ARE. KEEP US INFORMED AND PROTECTED OF COURSE WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF THE ALMIGHTY,GOD. IT IS SO UPLIFTING TO TAKE SUCH A UNEXPECTED SITUATION AND TURN IT AROUND TO SOMETHING POSITIVE. NOT SAYING WE STILL DON'T CRY AND DO ALL OUR WHAT IFS, IT JUST THE SPECIAL TOUCHES. TOUCHES LIKE WRITING YOU SPECIAL MESSAGES ON BALLOONS AND WATCHING THEM RISE TO THE HEAVENS. GIRL, WE MISS YOU LIGHTING UP A ROOM OR UP LIFTING A PERSONS SPIRIT. BUT, WE HAVE TO SAY THANK YOU FOR KEEPING US ON OUR TOES WITH YOU SPIRITUAL PRESENCE. THERE ARE THINGS THAT HAPPEND IF I WASN'T PRESENT WHEN THEY HAPPEND I WOULDN'T BELEIVE. YOU KNOW IT IS SAID THAT THERE ARE NO SUCH THING AS COINCIDENCES, SO I KNOW IT'S YOUR PRESENCE. KEEP ON DOING YOU.



LOVE US

To my ultimate road-dog,



I've finally built up the strength to complete my entry without falling apart before I get the chance to submit it. I know that you are constantly with us in spirit because you tend to let us know. We are fully aware of your spiritual presence and we're appreciating every moment of it. Our own little guardian angle looking down on us. I know you are probably up there in Heaven trying to totally take over! But you wouldn't be being yourself if you wasn't! You know your presence and personality is being missed on a daily basis. I don't have anyone to stay up and play cards with, or debate with all night, (because I'm never wrong and neither were you)! No one to get up and plan a full day with, only to get nothing in our plan accomplished, and laugh about it later! No one to create anymore mastermind plans with-only to laugh at those later too! Girl, you know we stayed in some drama and I'm missing every moment of it! I would give anything just to spend some time with you and see that kool-aid smile again. So, until I reconnect with you on the other side, save me a spot right next to you! We know that you are in a better place now, with no worries and no pain, so MUCH MUCH MUCH love to you, until we meet again!!!! XOXO

I'm sad beyond words and praying the lord will be with your family in the days ahead. Although I didn't know Mookie, I would hear her name mention during telephone conversations with mom Carolyn. Also I saw pictures of her and her sisters. I know she was a special person who knew what was right for her. Prayers are with you and your family. God Bless.

To Caroline, Cast, Nickey,Buff, and Sofia,I am sorry for your lost and and more sorry that I was not there to say my final goodbye to Mookie. There were so many times when my sisters and I sat up at night and talked about how lucky you sisters were. There were three girls in my family, but we always envied the love and strong bond that you sisters had between each other and with your parents. We have always said how Cast and Caroline loved there kids so much that the kids will never leave home. My sisters and I had the pleasure of spending summers at a time with you guys. We were at least15 and 16 years old. We are now 29 and 30 and we still talk about how much love the entire family showed us. Mookie was so lucky to have been loved by you two. It is like she had heaven twice. Her parents loved her so much while she was here on earth, now she has angels careing for her once again. I can see her smile right now as I right this. Mookie was such a kind hearted person with a wonderful soul. If anyone deserved to be worry and stress free, sitting next to God-- It is Mookie! I love you all.

TODAY I HAD THE PLEASURE OF SPENDING THE WHOLE DAY 01/11/04 WITH MY COUSINS, THE PARENT'S OF LAKRIESHA 'MOOKIE' DAVIS. IT WAS TIME WE SHARED LOOKING BACK ON WHAT A WONDERFUL PERSON KRIESHA WAS, AND HOW DEARLY AND DEEPLY SHE IS MISSED. I SPOKE OF MY LAST SEEING HER IN CHURCH. SOMETIMES AFTER COMMUNION I WOULD LEAVE EARLY, AND I WOULD HEAR HER VOICE (alphonse) AND WHEN I WOULD LOOK HER WAY, THERE SHE WOULD BE SMILING THAT GREAT SMILE AND WAVING THAT LITTLE CUTE WAVE SHE DID SO OFTEN. IN RETURN I WOULD WAVE AND SMILE BACK. WHAT A BEAUTIFUL CHILD, BOTH INSIDE AND OUT. I'M KNOWN IN THE FAMILY NOT TO MISS A WEDDING OR FUNERAL. HOWEVER, IN ALL MY YEARS I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A FUNERAL LIKE KRIESHA'S BEFORE. THAT IS WHAT A FUNERAL SHOULD BE ABOUT TEARS OF BOTH JOY, SORROW AND A CELEBRATION. THE RED AND WHITE ROSE PETALS PLACED AROUND AND THE 3 WHITE DOVES THAT WERE RELEASED AT THE BURIAL GROUND FREEING HER SPIRIT TO A BETTER PLACE. WOW!!!!! I TEAR UP WHEN I THINK ABOUT WATCHING THOSE DOVES RELEASED TO THE SKY, HOW BEAUTIFUL. REST MY LITTLE COUSIN UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN



LOVE,



PHONSE

KRIESHA A*K*A "MS DAVIS":



WE CROSSED EACH OTHER'S PATHS BACK AT CUC/CENDANT. WE CROSSED AGAIN AT AMERICAN EXPRESS. GOD ALWAYS LET US SEE OUR ANGELS NO MATTER WHERE WE ARE. I CAN HEAR YOU CALLING ME "TAMIKO" BECAUSE YOU HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER NAMED TAMIKO. FAMILY AS WELL AS FRIENDS WERE YOUR MOST PRIZED POSSESSIONS. YOU MADE TIME TO SHARE YOUR SMILE AND ALWAYS MADE US LAUGH. YOU WILL BE DEARLY MISSED AND ONE DAY WE WILL CROSS EACH OTHER'S PATHS AGAIN. UNTIL THEN, KEEP THE PARTY GOING. LOVE YOU GIRL! MY CONDOLENSES TO THE DAVIS FAMILY, MAY GOD KEEP YOU AND BE WITH YOU.

Davis family & Friends:

Some time has passed since "Krisha" moved away to her heavenly home. I pray that God is with you and that you are leaning on Him as you travel through the pages of life called grief...Do know that Krisha was a wonderful person who brighten my day daily as we worked side by side at American Express. It was obvious that she was a member of a family who showed loved because she showed it freely to me and anyone who she would come in contact with. So I applaud you all her family and pray that soon those pains of life will fade away, just leaving the fond memories of Krisha who I know is now really my angel. God's peace and blessibgs to you all.

Hey mookie,

It's me quetta.(Your cousin of course) I'm here to show you my love and let you know I will never forget you. It felt like it was only yesterday that you, Netra, Niki, Buff, Sofia, and I were all in one room at Quailmeadows off of Telephone road listening to a song (Tell me something good). That is one good memory i will always have of you. You were also crazy over jamaal and not once was i ever jelious cause I knew you loved me just as much as you loved him. Those are just a few but great memories that I had of you. I will always love you and everytime I see a Red Rose I will think of you.

Hugs and Kisses from me too You

May the Lord Bless your family and You Rest in Peace

To The Davis Family:



Psalms 121:1 says I will lift mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help comes from the LORD. Proverbs 3:5-6 says Trust in the LORD with all thin heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding; but in all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.



Carolyn & Caster my heart continues to go out to you and your family in your time of sorrow, my prayers are with you and I pray to GOD that he strengthens and guide you and your family thru this tragic time in your lives. John 14:2 says In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you.

Lakriesha is in her mansion.



GOD BLESS YOU...

As I sit here on the 2nd day of September I am still overwhelmed with grief. I still can not believe that "Mookie" is gone. I have known the family for a short time but you guys have always made me feel comfortable being a part of the family. I pray that God gives all of us the strength we need to endure this pain. I never knew it could hurt so badly. However, this experience has given me a new insight on life and living. I love you guys and you will be in my prayers forever and ever.

I wanted to send my heartfelt condolences to the family during the homecoming of Lakriesha. I am friends of Angela Davis and Cherith Randle and I wanted you all to know that God is your comforter and your strength during this time. God is with you right now. If you draw nigh to him he will draw nigh to you. Your family is in my prayers. I know it is a difficult time right now but concentrate on the joy that she brought into your lives and how God blessed you with the memories of her. We know as the word of God says to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. God Bless!

It is very difficult to find the right words to express to you and your family how saddened I was to hear about Mookie's death. I feel lucky that I did get the chance to meet Mookie at one of the "All Star Weekends" with Yvette. Please know that me and my family have you in our prayers and we will continue to pray that God will keep his loving arms wrapped around you and your family and lift you up during this very difficult time.

To Mr. & Mrs. Kaster Davis and family. First and foremost I want to let ya'll know how much I Love you guys!!! I just want to say it has been a honor to have met "Mookie" some nine years ago. I've seen her developed and matured into a beautiful young lady. I'll always remember her beautiful smile. Her smile is embedded in my heart forever. Because of her I tend to smile more often these days. I always took life so serious. So, THANK YOU Mookie. You'll be missed dearly however, whenever I see a smile ;-) :-) :o)on someone's face I'll always think of you MISSY. I thank God for directing my path into meeting this family. That's so loving, kind hearted, generous. Remember to never give up and always keep the Faith. I love you like a sister Carolyn and like a brother Kast and your four daughters are my nieces and last but not least my great niece Lauryn.



THE BATTLE IS NOT YOURS, IT'S THE LORD !!!

To The Davis Family,



I met Mookie about 7 years ago, through Angela Davis and it is seems like I've been knowing her for a lifetime. Mookie, Sophia, Nikki, and Buff had a way of making people feel like they were no strangers from the time you entered into their home. I truly praise God for that. When they saw you it was like you were reuniting with family. My heart is deeply saddened by Mookie's tragic death. As I sat back and thought about the life of Mookie God said these things, And now brothers and sisters, I want you to know what will happen to the Christians who have died so you will not be full of sorrow like people who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words. To Aunt Carolyn and Uncle Cass please know that you have many people praying for you. I love you all and I praise God for uniting me with such a wonderful family. Thank you God for the time you let us borrow Lakriesha Krashelle Davis.

TO MY DEAR SISTER AND FAMILY,

THERE ARE NO WORDS THAT CAN EXPLAIN HOW MUCH WE ALL MISS MOOKIE. I JUST KNOW THAT EVEN THOUGH SHE IS NOT HERE ON EARTH WITH US, SHE IS WITH US IN SPIRIT AND WE ALL WILL SEE HER AGAIN ONE DAY. I AM THANKFUL I HAD THE PRIVILAGE TO SAY I KNEW HER FROM DAY 1. YOU AND I HAD FUN COMING UP WITH THE NAME "LAKRIESHA KRASHELLE" AND HER NAME BRINGS A SMILE TO MY FACE BECAUSE IT TAKES US TO "BACK IN THE DAY", AND WE SHARE A LOT OF THOSE MEMORIES. MOOKIE WAS BORN AFTER THE START OF OUR FRIENDSHIP AND IT HAS NEVER ENDED. WE HAVE ENDURED THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UGLY TOGETHER AND THIS EXPERIENCE HAS BROUGHT US EVEN CLOSER. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS, BUT ONE THING IS FOR SURE, "GOD IS GOOD ALL OF THE TIME!!" MY PRAYERS WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

LOVE ALWAYS,

CHERYL AKA PUDDIN AND/OR GOODIE GOODIE--AND FAMILY.

Well, I can't be too mad that God wanted his Angel back. LaKriesha did what he wanted her to do in her lifetime & that was to put a smile on people's faces, impact their lives in such a way..that when you think about her death, you can't even get mad or sad because you're just too busy smiling & thinking to yourself, "that Kriesha", & you feel good to know that you were chosen to be part of her life.



I guess I'm just being a little selfish for wanting my girl here to kick it with. Kriesha D...what can I say? She was the life of the party. She had the ability to put a smile on your face at your worse moments & remind you that at the end, it will be alright & she was right.



She'd make you want to leave work just to hang out, sip on apple martinis & chit chat about family, guys, and enjoying life for the rest of the day. Darn, how I will miss sharing moments like that with her.



It saddens me to know that I won't get to hear you call me "Frank White" anymore, but I'm fine because you've left such a positive impact on my life..I always appreciated your honesty, realness, upbeat personality and all that sassyness that you walked around with everyday. I couldn't possibly forget those things about you.



I loved you very much but failed to tell you while you were here & I hope now that when I pray, you will hear how much I do.



With so much love

Your Friend & Former Co-Worker,

There’s nothing I could say to take the pain away at this moment. As I feel the same pain. Mookie was my best friend. I still can’t except that she is gone. I loved her with all my heart. She was such a loving and giving person. She was one of a kind. Just know that she was here for a reason. It seems that she touched so many other people in her life. I’m sure they saw what we saw in her. Kriesha was a beautiful person and she will be missed. Please just stay strong for her, she would have wanted that. You guys will always be in my prayers. I want you to let me, know if there’s any thing I can do to make this time easier for you.

To Carolyn Davis and Family,

I was shocked and saddened to hear

about your tragic loss. Take comfort in knowing that you have your personal angel in heaven. You and your family are in my prayers.

Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi

Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light, and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; To be understood, as to understand; To be loved, as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive; For it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, And it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

God be with you.

Hey Mookie,



When I heard the news I couldn't believe it but now that I see it in black and white I still can't believe. You was too pretty for anything to happen to you, but I know now that you are in a much better place. Where there are no worries. I just wanted to express to you that you will be truly missed and for your family to stay strong and for them to continue to be prayerfull. You are one of God's Angels now it is time for you to spread you wings and fly. Hey before I go I want for you to do me a favor tell George that he is truly missed and I will always carry him in my heart as well as I will carry you in my heart Mookie.

Dear Mookie,



It's very hard for me to believe that I'll never hear your voice or see your smile again. Since I took for granted that you would always be here, I never fully expressed the love and appreciation that I have for you. I've always admired your beauty, style, and most of all your charming personality. You will be greatly missed by all of us especially your aunt cheryl. I'm glad that we have so many good memories to reflect on as well as your beautiful smile forever etched in our minds.

Rest Peacefully!

To The Davis Family



I Thes. 4:14 - "For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him".



Although you sorrow now and your hearts are heavy, place your cares upon God and He will substain you. I too will miss the vivacious smile and laughter of Mooki, but she is with her Heavenly Father.



You all are in my prayers.

I didn't know Lakriesha but the obituary was beautiful. I read a lot of them for research and it was spoken with such depth. She was obviously loved. God Bless her soul and your family. (Hope you don't mind me writing here! It just really touched me. I'm sure she's proud of it!!)

TO THE FAMILY,

Words can never replace the life of your angel that has gone....find comfort in God's words, knowing that he has her now, and that she is alright and watching over you.

Your love one is now reunited with Jesus. Because he lives,all who put their faith in Him shall live forever with Him. Keep looking to Jesus, he will comfort you during this hour. Remember, when god permits trials, he also provides comfort.

"You've been through the valley of weeping, The valley of sorrow and pain; But the God of all comfort is with you, At hand to uphold and sustain".

Mookie - My Debutante Sister,

Though we may not have had a lot of time together, the time shared between each of our debutante sisters was truly uplifting. You opened your heart to me and helped me face a terrible situation I was going through. Thank you. I know you are smiling down from Heaven. My prayers are with you and your family.

From the Class of 1994 (Ross Sterling Sr.High) .To the beloved family and friends of "Mookie" your enlighten smile will surely be missed,but one thing we have to hold on to is that we will see you and that smile again .God has simply chosen another one of his angel's and it was you . To the family (Psalms 121:1-2) simply says Look to the Hills from whence your help cometh and your help cometh from the Lord .My pray it that God will keep your family and friends in perfect peace through this bit of a storm .

Mookie, I sure hated to hear about your passing. However, it makes me realize that we all must pass this way. It was your time to go and God saw fit for you to join Him. I must continue to live in His will so I can join you in the air some day. My cousin, Monica, misses you already. I guess that is why God gave her Makayla (the name you gave her daughter) to fill her void. To the family, my prayers are with you all.

My dear Mookie, I will surely miss you. I can hear you now calling me "Ganny Kris", you were a very bright light in the Davis family.But the comforting thought to me is that I know "GOD" is taking care of you now..So you just keep "walking around heaven" with that effervescent smile of yours.
