Hey mommy... I know its been a few weeks since my last post, just wanted to tell you we miss you like crazy. Your grandson started kindergarten last week and boy oh boy he has been giving them a run for their money. He keeps asking me when are you coming home, and why can't he speak to you on the phone anymore?? The 19th of this month will be six months and it seems like we lost you yesterday,I just miss you. I know you are resting, however I want you to be be with us. You woul get out of Jalen and how much he has grown. Mommy, he's losing his front teeth. He is really growing up. Ok, you know me, I'll write a book if I could. Talk to you soon, missing you forever... RIP!! Love you mommy...

April 24, 2014
Mommy today is another day that I am missing you. I knew this would be hard, but I had no idea that the ache would be like this. Your three girls share a bond with you that most children will never feel. You loved thru it all, good, bad, indifferent. We were your children and we knew you had our back. We talked about everything and I miss that the most. I still talk to you and can hear your voice and see your face all the time. Im just really missing you that's all. I get to work and you would be the first phone call I made when I sat down. I know you are in a better place, but I miss you dearly. Today Jalen is going to the Zoo, he wanted me to tell you that you are the best grandmommy in the world. Rest in piece mommy, I love you. Talk to you soon.

Charlese was a loving, wonderful, and caring person, selfless in her actions toward others especially her children and grandchildren. Ma you always took the time to assist whenever you could giving your time freely; asking for nothing in return. I can still remember when my son (your grandson) come home from the hospital you took care of him as if he was your very own and for that I'm eternally grateful. Just this past Thanksgiving when you came to visit you made my usual special pot of collard greens with turkey necks as only a mother would... Ma...as I affectionately called you....just remember through all the sorrow we know your in a much better much place now ..no more pain. Promise me though (no more cleaning) just enjoy your new home and know here on earth that you will surely be memorialized by everyone you came in contact with..including me... loving memories...always.

I remember u very well because you were like a second mother to me. You practically raised me and you used to tell me you "dont play" when I misbehaved. I love you Miss Jones. I will never forget the laundromat days on the waterside. My mother didnt speak much english and felt she couldnt trust any non haitians but she trusted you and left us in your care. Thank You and God Bless!! My condolences to your family.
