I cannot believe it's been 6 years since I've seen my favorite auntie/sister. God has brought my Alan to be with you so I know he's keeping you good company just wish you both were here with me like we used to be. I guess me and Tony will have to get old together and meet you both when our time comes. Missing you everyday. Love you always!

I rememember Kesha sweet quiet demeanor. She did'nt speak unless spoken to. Her smile could light up an entire room. To her imediate family I just want to say, death is something we don't understand in some cases never get over but nevetheless God is still good and he want put no more on us than we can bare. I know at times this is hard to understand and even harder to believe this is when FAITH has to kick in. When the road gets rough and you feel like you can't go on,lean on Jesus because this is the time when he is carrying you.

Alan i wake up this morning with you on my mine i know in life there will be some dark days but i know that God is still on the thone my God blass you Love you AlWays Your Cousin Mario L Smih 7/14/2009

Keisha, it's been a long time and I hope you and Alan have gotten together by now. It's hard to say good bye to your love ones and I know this because I'm feeling so much pain today. I miss you so much and I'm not sure if I'm able to get through this month. Alan will be gone one year on June 25th. Anyway, I just wanted to write a entry in your memory book. I know that GOD has you both and everything is peaceful with the both of you. Love Always!!!! Monica Martin

Missing you so much! You got my brother up there with you now. I know you'll look out for my Alan like you always have.

I Love You both & miss you everyday!

I just wanted to express my appreciation toward the Martin family of what a beautiful daughter/sister you all had. My children were both students of Keisha at Mothers' Care and my daughter who was four at the time is now thirteen and she remembers "Miss Keisha" as she was to the children, so well. She remembers so much that you wouldn't expect a child who was that young to remember now, and she speaks of how "Miss Keisha" was her favorite teacher. So, I know that you all are already aware of the many lives that Keisha has touched and her memory will forever live on in so many hearts. She was truly a wonderful young woman whose dedication to children was so evident and who was always smiling, she is truly missed.

It's been 4 years too long.

Missing you Kee. I Love You!

Happy Thanksgiving! Missing You Always.

Happy Belated Birthday, I just looked at the slide show it was nicely put together.

Happy days to Keisha and family.

Happy Belated Birthday Sis! I Love You 'Til Death.

Hey Girl,

Well by now you know Ollie Ruth is with you and you both can keep each other company and smile down on us. Just wanted to say Happy New Years!

We are now into your 3rd year of your death and I'm always thinking of you during the holidays especially. I miss your laughter and your peace with others. Only if everybody could be like you!

LOVE YOU!

Hey Kee,

With everything that's happened over the past week, all I can hear is your laughter when we watched Ollie Ruth do the moves from her work-out class at my mother's house. I'm not sure if anyone else heard you, but I did loud and clear. Now Ollie Ruth is with you. Take care of each other and keep smiling down on us.

Luv U :-)

Kim

Happy 31st Birthday Auntie!!



I love you and miss you very much :)



Love always,

Kim

Well,

Our B-day's are fastly approachingg in 3 wk's. We would celebrate from your B-day on the 25th til mines on the 29th. This year will be different for me without you but in some strangley odd way, I feel like your right here.

To the Martin family,

May God continue to bless and keep you. Your, daughter,sister,aunt,neice and cousin was a special person. I have come to realize that God has created us all for purposes that are unknown to us. Clearly Keisha's purpose in life was to bring, Joy,peace,calm,love and tenderness into all of the lives that she touched. Each person that describes her has the same interpretation of her. Easy going, full of fun, and laughter. She has changed my thought's about life totally. Never did I think that our late night conversation's and funning would lead me to my sanctification and salvation. But Good know's it has.

It has made me love with my whole heart, to be intolerable of nonsense and live each day like it may be my last.

Like all that loved her I feel pain and sorrow but through the midst of it all. I still believe that God is good .

Miss you and love you!!!!!!!

We did it Big Sis.



One more hump to accomplish on September 23rd.



Love you and missing you soooo much,

Your neice

Season's of a lifetime



People come into your life for a reason,a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is,you know exactly what to do.



When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically,emotionally or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are.



They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end.



Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met,our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered and it's now time to move on.



When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an un believable amount of joy. It is real!!! But, only for a season.



Life time relationship's teach you lessons, those thing's you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person anyway,and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life.



It is said that love is blind, but friendship is clirvoyant.

I feel so blessed to have had Keisha as my friend I can honestly say that she touched my life in so many way's. She made me laugh when I was down. She alway's presented herself well in any and all situation's. Her love as a friend was unfailing. I miss her so much. I try to move past the love but she has put a bookmark in our pages of life together. Her heart was alway's in the right place and I know that still today it is. She was an angel to those who knew her on earth and there is no doubt in my mind that she is still an angel with God.

We may never know why or how. Those are question's I struggle with everyday. I have been trying to put all my question's in the hand's of the Lord and am now trying to not lean on my own understanding , but in the confidence that God makes NO Mistakes. And through all the hurt,pain tears. Try to remember her with that big smile on her face and alway's something silly to say.

I cannot say enough how sorry I am to her family. I miss her so much I ache sometimes. I know it must be excruciatingly painful for you all.

Let's not let the devil steal all her joy due to his lies and deception's that he want's us to all focus on.

She was beautiful,full of life ,love and energy. I know it's hard to focus on good thing's right now but we have too.

That's the only way we will get through this.lol



Missing you tooooo!!!!!

Missing you! :(

HAPPY VALENTINE DAY



LOVE MONICA

It’s hard to believe that you could be here one moment and gone the next. Keisha you will never be forgotten, especially that beautiful smile of yours. Whenever I would see you (at Grandma Priscilla’s party) you were always smiling. I can not say that I know what you are feeling (Aunt Lois, Monica, Frank, Kim, Allen and Rabbit) but I would like to offer my condolences. Keisha’s job on earth was finish, now it is time for her to be an Angel in heaven. I am sure she is in Heaven, smiling down on all of us.



Rest in Peace, Keisha

Peaches

Keisha, it's hard to believe that you are gone. I cannot imagine losing my sister, or a daughter for that matter. You will be greatly missed. For Aunt Lois, Monica, Frank, Kim, Allen, etc., I pray that God will give you strength. And on those days when you're feeling your worst, rest assured that the Lord knows what you can bear. When you do not know who to call, just call on Him, and he will do the rest.



Lots of love, and even more prayers

Dana

To the Martin Family:



Even though I did not know Keisha. My husband remembers Keisha from the Day Care Center. He was really shocked to find out that Keisha had passed. Just from reading Keisha guest book I can tell she was a beautiful person. She really will be missed by those who knew her personally.



I hope that your family will sponsor her guest book and keep it online. Remember there is healing in words. Put your trust in God in all that you do.



Take Care and God Bless,

Keisha,

I will miss your big smile :)

I know that you are smiling down us. I will always love ya!

I still can't believe you are gone.

I will miss us getting ready to go out, rushing to the club before we have to pay a covercharge, standing around laughing and dancing all night. I can't call you anymore and say Keisha I need a ride, because if I ask for a ride you will always be there, right on time. You didn't say no, not one time. I'm so glad I

pressed you to go to the Christmas party, not knowing it would be the last time I saw you. I can see your smiling face, Thank you for being you. You just don't know how much you will be missed, a piece of me is gone. I love you, Keisha.

My deepest sympathy goes out to Keisha's family. She was a wonderful person to be around. She touched the lives of many people, young and old. May God bless each and every one of you.

My prayers are with you and your family. I did not know Kiesha but hear alot about her from a friend. Her spirit will live on, thought all the lives that she touched. She will live in the hearts of many. Lean on each other for the comfort that she has giving you all.

Keisha, This is the hardest task in my life! I'm missing you so much already. I will always love you and think of your smile.



However, to know that you are in better place and safe in God's hands is a blessing.



Rest in Peace.

For me this has been so devestating . I can only imagine the pain that the family may feel.

I considered Keisha one of my best friends. We met at Mother's Care. It was so wonderful working with her that her bright personality

inspired me to get to know her on a more personal level. Keisha, I will alway's love and remember you for the beautiful person you were and will never forget the times that we shared together, GOOD and BAD. With all my love, Your Girl,

Kim

I'm sure I will get to see you someday!!!!!!!!!

I've known Keisha since Maryland Avenue and our days at the "Schools on the Hill". It was always nice to see her and that big, beautiful smile of hers! I pray that Keisha's family and friends find comfort in the Lord during this time of sorrow. I will forever remember her smile and keep you in my prayers. My heart goes out to you.



May you rest in peace Keisha and light up the skies with your smile..

With my deepest sympathy to the Martin Family. I have known Monica Martin for two years and I know how much she adored and LOVED her sister Keisha. Monica spoke about Keisha all the time, everyday of how intelligent, caring, and outgoing her sister was. I know she will be missed greatly.

To The Martin Family

To the Martin Family:



On behalf of my family we would like to extend our deepest sympathy in this time of sorrow. Our thoughts and prayers will be with your family. May God Bless you all and keep you during this time.

May God be with you during your time of sorrow. Ms. Keisha was my son's teacher when he was 2 yrs old, 3 yrs old and 4 yrs old at Mother's Care. He truly blossomed with her. He is now 9 yrs old and an honor roll student. Ms. Keisha gave him the foundation he needed. She was an excellent teacher. We were blessed to have her in our lives.

Our prayers are with the family. May God give you the strength to continue on with your life.We love you. From Debra, Danielle, Diamond and Desiree

My deepest sympathy to Keisha's Family. I can remember Keisha's smile while visiting Monica. I know that God will get you through these difficult times and I know that he'll be a sister to you Monica. Lean on all of God's understanings and he will never let you down. Know that God can and will.

To a dear friend who touched my heart in many ways. Someone who I could talk to about anything and everything at anytime and she would give me that shoulder to cry on and be a listening ear. You will surely be missed but never forgotten in my heart or mind. I will see you some day in a far better place.

Love Always,

Deon Grey

To the Family & Friends of Keisha, we pray the Lord gives you peace to comfort your hurting heart; the strength & courage to endure; and, most importantly, His love to replace the anger. Keisha was a kind hearted person and we will miss her smile and laughs. We loved her as a sister and a friend. We don't always understand why, but God knows.



God Bless,

The Quiller Family - Pam, Reginald (Reggie Boo) & Tricia

The road ahead may seem long, but let faith take you by the hand and guide you through. Remember this, too, shall pass. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

To the Martin Family.

You have my deepest sympathy during this time of sorrow.



Keisha, I have known you since you were barely out of diapers. I remember when Monica and I used to carry you places with us as we hung out around DC. How time sure does fly. You are now an angel with the LORD, and as your light shined very brightly here on earth it will now shine even brighter up in heaven with GOD and all of his angels. You are now and always a dear friend of mine and it was a pleasure to have had you in my life. May GOD be with you always.

You were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord.

I have worked with Keisha for two years. She was always a pleasant

person to be around and very delightful. She is loved and will

be missed very, very much.

Your in God hands now.

I would like to extend my deepest condolences to the family of Keisha Martin. My name is Carina and I worked with Keisha at Mother's Care. It was such a pleasure getting to know her. I will always remember her smile, and I will miss hearing her call the center just to check and see how everyone was doing. I will pray for you all that God would give you peace and strength during this time.

Willie, There is no greater sorrow than burying a child. Though I cannot say I know what you are going through, please be assured that I am thinking of you and praying for you and your family. May God grant all of you the peace that passes all understanding, and may your memories of your beautiful daughter give you comfort.

The Jennings' Family would like to extend our sorrow for the lost of your daughter/sister/aunt/friend. Our prayers are with you in this time of need. May God Bless you and your family.

Sorry this tragic incident had to happen on my birthday. We didn't get to meet as we planned but I will see you again in a much more beautiful land. May you rest in peace.
