I was so sorry to hear of the passing of Kia. I will always remember her love for Lil Wayne, how she would start talking about her birthday Everyday after New Year's day until it was finally here on March19, and the smile on her face as she told me "Good Morning Shunta" when I use to pick her up on the van in the mornings.
