I was always in awe of Rasheem. His kindness, his stick to it attitude, his wit and his faith always humbled me. I would be remiss if I failed to mention his banana pudding, it was great! And like everything else he did he put his heart into it. To Rasheem's family - my family, I am so grateful to have know him. So, I say in his words; "Thank you, you're welcome".

I was the nurse at IHS while Rasheem was a student there. What a delight he was. I am unable to attend the services but will be thinking of him and all of you, his wonderful family.

To Rasheem's family,

I worked with Rasheem when he attended Beville Middle School. He was such a sweet and funny guy. I have many memories of the 3 years I shared with him. I remember how he loved to untie our shoes and then break out in his laugh. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. May God ease your pain with the knowledge tht Rasheem is with him and sharing his smile with all the angels.
