Hey cuz, I was remembering how you use to jump in my pool in any type of weather. You always knew how to get the party rolling. Also remember our summer together in LA & how you kept me and mimi in trouble. (spoil brat) I love you DENELL and our memories will remain in my heart until we meet again. God only bring home the best.... You were just that ! Love you cuz/sister Nicole

Hey cuz, I was outside today remembering you jumping in my pool. No matter what type of weather we were having you always knew how to start the party rolling. I find myself thinking about all the summers we share together. How you kept me and Mimi in trouble. You was a spoil loving brat that I will miss but have all our memories in my heart. I love you cousin/sister nicole.

Hey Cuz, I didn't see you as much as I would have loved to because we lived in different states, but whenever you were in NY you always made it a point to ring my bell. One of my most prized memories is at Aunt Norma's funeral when Latrice won LCR. You were so ecstatic, thanking us for gas and hotel fare. lol.You will always be loved and definitely be missed. Til we meet again, you will always be in my heart and mind. Your loving cousin, Mickey (NY)

Denell, I will always remember your humor and optimistic view of life, and even though we would only speak on occasion I knew you were always there for support and would forever be a great friend... RIP
