Jahiem Royal Everson, a beloved young man and cherished member of his family, departed this life on October 20, 2025, at the young age of 22. Born on March 6, 2003, Jahiem was known for his sweet, kind-hearted nature and a smile that could light up any room, touching the souls of those around him. He was a gentle spirit who always put others before himself, embodying the essence of selflessness in every interaction.
Jahiem was a devoted family man, holding a special place in the hearts of his loved ones. He took exceptional care of his grandmother, Paula Williams, and was always there for his family, serving as the glue that held them together. His loving presence will be profoundly missed by his mother, Sonya Hill, his siblings Ramill Hill, Jiyah Everson, Imani Hill, Jamyya Howard, and Jazir Everson, his auntie Bahseemah Williams, special cousins Derek Hawkins, Maurice Blacknall, Tyrese Bailey, D'Naizha Pooler, Dan'Yia North and Jocelyn Grisom, along with many more cousins, aunties, uncles, and friends.
Beyond his family ties, Jahiem had a wide range of interests that truly defined him. He had a passion for music and an affinity for cars, always staying fresh and well-dressed while driving a beautiful vehicle wherever he went. His sharp style and charismatic presence made him a joy to be around.
Though he is preceded in death by his father, Royal Everson, as well as his great uncles Michael and Anthony Williams and great-grandmothers Carolyn Heard (Robert Heard) and Bernice Everson, Jahiem's legacy will continue to shine brightly through the love and memories he leaves behind. His warmth, compassion, and unwavering support touched many lives, and he will be remembered fondly by all those who were fortunate enough to know him. His spirit lives on in the hearts of his family and friends, a lasting testament to a life well-lived.
