To the family of Jamil, especially Vivian, you have my deepest sympathy. I will always remember Jamil as the son who took care of his grandmother. He was always there for his mom, whether it be to hang Christmas lights, cut down trees or anything she needed him to do. I can visualize him now as he would bring lttlle Ah'mil to spend some time with her grandmother. Gone To Soon, but Never, Never Forgotten. May God give you the Grace and strength as you go through this time of sadness. RIH Jamil. Dave and Ms Sweet Elliott
