HI RAY, When heaven open up to receive you. God was so please to see you. I miss your handsome face, that made me laugh. But we know God knows what is best. So when the trumpet sounds, you shall awake and receive your crown. Which is life for eternity. God awaits you with your brand new body. Oh how excellent is his name. We Love You Ray

Dear Ray,
When you came into the world, I was a little bit older than you, but thought here is an angel for my Aunt Jeana, beacuse her 1st angel was getting older and would be moving on in her life. Even living a distance away from one another, I got to see you from time to time, and I thought "this little boy is a trip.", because you never seem to loose energy, but you had a sweet natured side that had equal engergy. I do regret that I or my kids didn't get to know you better, no matter what you are my family and I love you always, peace be with you in your rest.

Hello again Ray,
I can't believe it has been two years since you've been gone. I was just thinking about you a few days ago and telling Frank how I still can't believe that Ray is no longer here on earth, it just seems so unfair that such a precious, kind, humble and young person as yourself was taken from us. I remember you as a skinny, silly, playful little boy when I first met you then I had the honor of seeing you grow up into a handsome, very tall, responsible young man. Every time I see your daughter, your presence and spirit is written all over her face. Ray continue to watch over all of us especially your mother and sister and keep us in your grace. I know your are in heaven right now making music for God. I love you and miss you.

Hi Sis,
Rashawn has been gone for two years now, but his loving memory will be with us forever. He is with God who never makes a mistake and shows up every day in our lives to prove it.
Trusting God to know that He is always there for us is the most fulfilling feeling one who believes can experience. Rashawn is at peace and I know we will see him again. Keep the faith sis for only God knows your heart.
Love,
Hank & Arlene

Ray, Its really hard to believe that its been two years, You came to my mind so profoundly last Sunday, I found myself overwhelmed,with the thought of how proud you would be of Ivory Girl. She is a spitting image of you, mannerism and all. We visited you at the cemetery Monday,and a star/light shone so brightly under the moon that Uncle Dan and I knew it was a sign from God and you. It was to early for the stars to appear in the sky and this was the only light other than the moon. We first thought that it might be a light from a plane but it wasn't. We know that it was confirmation from God above and you that you 're with him and that if we follow God's plan for our lives we will one day reunite with you and all our loves ones that went on before you. I miss you, Momma misses you and this is a really difficult time for her. Touch her is some way and let her know that you are with the KING and all is well.
Love Aunt Charlie

Ray,
I am going through so much right now…everything has changed and is still changing. I feel out of control, overwhelmed, pressured, sometimes alone and unheard. The Lord knows my heart; HE knows me and I just need HIM right now to come into my mind; my soul and walk me through this coping process. My being is under fire and I need HIM to give me peace. My everything is begging for peace. How do I deal with all of these changes LORD? How do I continue to live and not just exist when the ones I love are gone? Nothing on Earth is more important than family so how do I cope? Help me; I pray.
I want us to sit in the back yard on the swing, drink coffee, smoke a cigarette and talk. I really, really miss that time. We had many spats; as most brothers and sisters do but I was always there for you; and you for me. We could talk about any and everything and it wouldn’t go anywhere; just between you and me.
Please, please get on my nerves by squeezing me…please kiss all over my face with your wet kisses…please come over with your music blasting so I can tell you to turn it down …please show up late to the house for dinner and question me on why I haven’t made your plate…please wake me up in the middle of the night to find out where Mom is PLEASE…PLEASE! The list goes on and on. What I wouldn’t give just to go through all those things again.
I realize that I took our good, not so good and down right terrible times for granted because I thought that you would be here. Ray, I didn’t savor each moment with you; like I was supposed to, knowing that good and bad work together for our good. I let my anger or agitation with you or your actions interfere with some of our time; time I can’t get back to do over. The lesson in that for me is to love unconditionally and what that means to me is to love a persons total being; their COMPLETE existence…that’s what I am striving for right now…from this day forward as long as I live. You mean the world to me and have taught me so much; even though I am the oldest. I am still learning me and what GOD wants for me. Thank you for the talk I miss you; love you…always.

The Lord calls up on all of us in his own way and time, and so happen he called you before any one of us. Here on this big place we call earth we have to be happy about that. You are one of his soilders and always will be. Just do us a favor and keep up the great work you was doing here on earth up there with our farther and we all will be ok down here till it is our time to come home with you. See all we have do is keep our trust in G-O-D and living down here will come easy. I know that how, from you. I remeber the very first day I sold you my car. You was so full of live and you made every thing that was bad good. Just knowing you and able to always keep that beautiful smile in my head as a picuter of some one who enjoyed life. I live by that every day. You made us proud and you still do. You know your mother and your sister are wonderful people. They have been so greatful, and loving that you have no need to worry about them, cause they know you are looking out for them and that you are in pace. You know I can't even began to wonder how many lives you have touched, and I'm sure there was lots, but I know one for sure was your Godbrother Brian Williams. He was so hurt that he had to leave, but he was happy to see you go to a better place. Brian told me one day, Ray soul is still here and lots of time I can still see him, in the car with me, under the hood saying 'B' when you going to teach me how to work on cars better. Brian said it feels good to know that you are still around. So that just let all of us know just how big of a heart you have Ray and it just keeps on growing because so many people have been touched by you and so many more will. Today is a wonderful day and I never forget it. We love you and always will. The Williams Family.

I Found Me An Angel In My Life
I know in time this will pass
I know this heartache won't last
After the dark clouds of pain
The sunshine will dry up the rain
We just didn't have enough time with you
There were so many things we still hoped to do
Some things in life can never be explained
Yet we go on in the hope that we'll see you again
And we live in the rainbow of memories
turning the pages....remembering
that God gave us all a special gift
in the form of you
and that blessing will be enough to see us through
We know it will be okay after awhile
when God's love will turn sorrow into smiles
and we will all grab onto our own sweet memory
with a love that will set the pain free

I MISS YOU RAY!
My baby boy, it has been a year and a half of not physically seeing or hearing your voice but I know that your presence is always near. I miss you very deeply, listening for your car loudly vibrating around the corner or the door to open at night; and even the simple shout of mama…is something I still long to hear. I also miss you coming out to meet me when I drive up into the driveway and ask if I need help or just simple hey mom…you need help.
I trust in our GOD and I know we are all here for a purpose and a season…thou I may not feel 18 years was not long enough for me, I know GOD only takes the best. You were a good son and GOD knows everything and I thank HIM for blessing me for having YOU!
I know I will see You, Mama, Daddy, Carl, Carla, Uncle Butch, and a host of relatives that have gone before me AGAIN! Heaven must beautiful place and the sweet sounds of praising GOD must be AWESOME! But while I am still here on this side, I know GOD’s Grace and his Mercy is sufficient; and I will continue to do HIS will.
Ivory, Lil Jordan, Sabrina and your sister, brother-in-law, aunts, uncles, cousins and friends misses you and you will always be in their hearts. I miss you dearly and your friends occasionally stop by outside just to set and feel your presence. You have touched so many lives that words cannot express but to say THANK YOU GOD FOR BLESSING AND COVERING MY SON AND CONTINUE TO BLESS THOSE THAT HE TOUCHED THRU HIS AND YOUR LOVE AND PRESENCE!
You are my Sun Shine my only Sun Shine you make me Happy when I am sad… GOD will be with us always to the end.
Love
Mom
I thank you, Father, Lord of Heaven and Earth... and I will give you rest.

My Dearest Brother,
It has been a year but it seemed like just yesterday. There hasn't been one day to pass that I have not thought of you. I may have heard a song that I know you would be blasting it in your car; for all the vibrations to be felt by all of our neighbors. When I look at Jordan and how much of a giant he is with the deep voice and his demeanor; he reminds us all of you. You live on everyday for me and you have to; it hurts so badly when I realize that you are physically gone. I hope that I am making you proud as a sister. I know that I am really weak , but the Lord has kept me strong and has really answered my prayers on being able to deal with the whole situation. You are always such a Mama's Boy and I want you to know that I am doing my very best to keep up with her. You know how hard it is. I need you to whisper into the Good Lord's ear and ask him to continue to healing our hearts. I love you and will always be in touch.
Your Big Sis

Dear Aunt Jeana,
Almost a year later and I'm still smiliing when I think of the day Ray called around lookin for his Mumma (that boy was in a tizzy). That boy loved his Mumma and if you never knew anything else about him you knew that. It's a joy to know that he has gone forward to his father. But it still makes me sad to know that you are hurting because you miss your baby boy. I pray peace and quiet in you for the years to come as you appreciate the joy and funny memmories of him.
Your father knows of your daily thoughts and struggles to accept and understand his work. He listens and comforts you through each day. And when it becomes to much he puts his loving arounds around you and carries you until you can bear it.
I only knew him for a short time, but the more I learn about him I realize that in his short time he made himself remarkable in a lot of people's lives.
I love you lots. If you ever need anything please call.

My family and I send our condolence to you and Rashawn's father Michael. I met you and Rashawn during your visit to Buffalo. It was wonderful to feel the love you shared with each other.
Now that Rashawn has joined the Heavenly Choir, I pray that God will grant you and Michael the strength and courage to live the kind of life that will make your son proud that you are his parents.
Yours in Christ,

My Dearest Brother,
I have a montosh of feelings, daily. I feel sad that I can't watch you grow into that well structured man that I knew you were on your way to becomming. I am so proud of you getting your GED and making the effort for college. You were already a being a wonderful Dad. Wow, this is so hard, I never would have anticipated that you would leave me here. I thought that I would have been the first to go, since I was the first born and had experienced so much more of life.I really miss our talks, arguements and your plain getting on my nerves. I know that you are with the Good Lord and still around in spirit; watching over us, but I am still sad.I love you so much and you will always be a part of me.I am relying on God's words of encouragement and His Grace and Mercy to get me through this.

Soul Secrets for the loss of a child
Lord, I cannot imagine any grief more consuming than this. O’ God, my child. I am weary and numb. It is hard for me to realize that this loss is real and that it is permanent. I feel guilty that, as a mother, it is so hard to release my child to You, the father. But Lord, It is almost more that I can bear.
Lord, bring comfort. Send Your Holy Spirit in a way I’ve never experienced before. I need You right beside me. I need to cry on Your shoulder. I need to know that You know. You really know.
Lord, give wisdom to those around me who want to help, but feel so inadequate. Equip them to minister to me in ways that will help all of us. But more that that, be my deepest friend. Bring Me through these devastating days. Give me grace through my grief. Help me now to survive, and when it’s time, to arise stronger and more compassionate. Remind me that my child is safe with You. And so am I.
Mom
I will get through this with Gods strength. I miss you and will always love you.
December 20, 2006
To Jeanna & Tot
We love you, but GOD loves you best. He knows all of your sorrows and He cares. Know that the Lord is to wise to make a mistake. knowing that we all must past through death to life. Hopefully, we will be prepared on that day and our work is done. Take care in knowing that Rashawn is with the Lord, the best place he could ever be. We know that you are in pain and it hurts, but GOD will make it better when you put your trust in him. We are here for you Jump and Tot and our prayers are with you both always. Keep Jesus in your heart for in your weakness his strength is made perfect.
Love,
Your Brother & Sister

I'am so sorry for our loss, as you know Rashawn was a part of our family here in Connecticut, I'am going to miss him calling me Mama Lady, and his Brother Micheal and Sister LaShawnda his Nieces and Nephews could not have had a better Step brother and Uncle,You did a great job raising him, he was so smart and bright, so polite, no words can express the way I feel right now, but I can truly say I feel what you feel, may God keep your family and my family strong through these times of Trial, RaShawn would want us to do this, and Sabrina Ivory will be alright as well. God Bless You All, and we Love You Here in Connecticut.

Sister,
I sent the poem below so you can find additional comfort in knowing that Rayshawn is with Our Father. When I read the words, the words were so apppropriate in what I believe Rayshawn would say to you. Sister I love you, and no words can express what any of us are feeling, but know that if you hold on to our Saviour hand you will find comfort and peace. Karen and I will continue to lift our family up in prayer. Love you with all my heart

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.

One Last Dance
Even now I can see your small arms reach up while the music is playing with your cap and bomber jacket on. It was your favorite remember?
I notice you tapping your feet with a cute little smile on your face. I can see the reflection of your smile, of your slow steady movement as I move around to the next thing that I have to do.
I notice you looking intently not wanting me to leave you alone. As I reach out to scoop you up, I ask, "Why didn't you say anything?" You put your arms around my neck and your head on my shoulder as if to say, "It's okay now, auntie." You've grown into such a handsome young man, clean pressed, neat and tall.
Yes there is still that smile, so subtle, so sweet, you know I remember!
If it were not for memories how could I dance with you one last time over and over again? How could I touch your face, listen to your voice and hold your hand, knowing someday you would go away? How could I say goodbye if it wasn't for the last dance in my memory when you smiled up at me with your cap and bomber jacket on, tapping your feet to the song.
Auntie Tonya Hawkins
Jeana truly my heart is saddened as if one of my own, and yet I feel he is one of my own had gone away. As I watch the leaves that fall from the trees in movement around the ground in their own sort of dance, I think of Rashawn and know within that he had his own tune, his own color, his own passion and his own way, yet he was and will always be deeply loved and truly missed. I pray that God will give us all the strength to see this thing through because the pain cannot be described on paper, and no one can truly express the words. I hope that we all can hold on to our memory of him in a way that will eventually bring a smile and a warmth that we can hold onto always.

In the memory of Reshawn m. Davis Our Life is like a vapor which quickly passes by. Som sooner then others only the good Lord knows why. He?s taken him to Heaven where the music softly plays But he promises all who believe will be togeather/one Glorious day. The Lord visited Pearland to take his special child home. They'll walk through pearly gates he'll have a mansion of his own the streets are made of gold and the beauty is so surene He'll be with Jesus Forever Every Christians Dream. writen by Barry , Debbie Nellons stepdad and mom

You who are most sorrowfully tried, most borne down, yours is the brighter hope. Be now courageous, play the woman of God, for Christ, for your own soul; and yet the day shall come when you with your Master shall ride triumphant through the gates of New Jurusalem, having overcome through the blood of the Lamb! Hallelujah! Blessed be the Name of the Lord.

I’ll always remember the young 15 year kid who drove me around the lake one Saturday at our company picnic. This young man stepped on the boat and said I can drive for you. I said are you sure he said just sit back and ride, and for the next two hours he drove all over the lake like a pro. I’ll always remember that when I go boating.
