Maria and family,

I "know" that there is not much that anyone can say that will ease your pain. Just want you to know that you are in my prayers and thoughts. They tell me that it gets easier with time. I can only hope that this is true for us all as I grieve the recent loss of my mother. I do know that God loves us all best and he is our strength. Stay fast in him and let him be your rock. Call me if you need anything.

To Millie, Ms. Brenda, George, Maria, Jaiden, and those family members I never met, my heartfelt condolences and prayers are with you. Jason will be missed just as he was loved by many. I will definitely miss my lil brother. As I sit here writing this all I can think of is Jigga riding a bike (or that purple car) up Forstall St. and parking it right there at 711 with a kool-aid smile that never left his face. Just Remember:
If GOD Brings You To It, He Will Bring You Through It.

Be Strong and May GOD Bless You All.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

know that all things work together for the good to those who love the lord. You will never forget Jason, the only thing you could do is hold on to the good times, think about how he made you laugh, how he did crazy things, just remember who he was on this earth, because now The lord Jesus knows who he is now as he holds him in his arms.
