Kish, I think I about you often and I hope you hear me when I speak to you. I remember a conversation we had when you told me that even when your body left this place, I must understand that you would still be with me.....I understand now. I love you.

Hey Kish,
Thought of you today as I always do. It's amazing that you have a little niece coming soon. I remember the grief and hurt I felt when we lost you in September. Now 7 years later God brings joy to us in the same month. I hope you got a chance to meet your other niece Serena. Kiss her for me. Love you

Its been five years, and every so often, I see you in art class, sitting on the stool smiling. I would glance over at you, and say to myself. Kish is always smiling. I felt your mother's pain, however, it wasn't until I lost my baby last year that I actually understand her pain. A mother never forgets and we never want to let our child be forgotten.

An everlasting smile

Well, Thanksgiving Day is tomorrow, and the family is coming here to my house for dinner. Wish you were coming too - I'd make Kish-Ka-Bobs for you. Anyway, I am deeply thankful that you were in my life for 25 years! Wish it could have been more, but we'll meet again.

Love always,

Always, Always, you are in our thoughts and our prayers. "LenaBena" came to see us last week (she's not "little Helena" anymore at all!), and as she stood looking at your art -- the leopards -- displayed in my hallway, tears filled her eyes and we talked about you for a while. She wants your art in her place too, when she gets one.
Always loving you,

Kish,

I'm still thinking of you and I can't believe you've been gone this long. Can't believe that my friend has left me. I know that you are with God and that he can take care of you best now. You are gone but never forgotten. I love and miss you so much.

Ms. Blonde,

Hi sweetie, I just wanted to take the time to let you know that I always think about Kish. I know that he is one of the angels that watch over my family and I. I miss him so much and I'll always remember what you told me: "Love my babies, and let them know". I don't know what your experience has been like but, Ms.Blonde you are a beautiful, strong, inspiring, black mother that Kish would be very proud of.

We Love You-JAY3

Love is hugging you, kissing

you, missing you, it’s taking

away the pain that you once

felt, it’s bringing you back,

it’s celebrating you, it’s calling

you to talk, it’s taking a walk

with you, it’s fixing you breakfast

in the morning, it’s calling you

when I need help with an art

project, it’s listening to your

music, it’s eating with you at

a vegetarian restaurant,

it’s touching your beautiful skin,

love is getting together for the

holidays, it’s ironing your clothes,

it’s watching you grow and mature,

it’s taking pictures with you, it’s

buying you a card for your birthday.

Love is wishing I said the 3 words more

Love is…… remembering you.

Dear Heavenly Father,

He is in Your hands, now, my Kish. You know how deeply I loved him -- I still do, and I look forward to seeing him again when I one day enter eternity. As You embrace him, rock him in the warmth of Your bosom, tell him that I think of him daily. I talk about him when people ask about the jaguar painting on my wall, and every opportunity I get! Sometimes, I even sing to him. I still cry because of the great loss, but then I smile because of the great memories. "I love you, Kish, always."



Love,

Auntie Helena

Dear Kish,

In the last two years since you've been gone, there hasn't been a day that you haven't crossed my mind. I miss you so much, but I thank God for bringing you into my life and for the time that we spent together. I miss seeing your face, hearing your voice and feeling your embrace, but i feel your spirit everyday and I hope that somehow, you can hear my words when i speak to you. I know that one day, we'll see each other again, and until that day, I still miss you and love you. ......Love Always, Koren

IT'S BEEN TWO YEARS SINCE I'VE SEEN YOUR FACE. IT HURTS SO BAD WHEN I CAN'T FEEL YOUR EMBRACE. IT SEEMS AS IF IT WERE ONLY YESTERDAY BECAUSE THE PAIN IS STILL SO REAL.



I HURT, I LAUGH, I SMILE, I CRY, I THINK OF GOOD MEMORIES WHEN I'M MISSING YOU.



I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU

I am still at a loss over the passing of Kish. Time hasn't exactly eased the grief as I thought, but I know that he is in a better place. I am still missing you so much. Your passing still has left a void in the hearts of many, especially mine. I continue to pray for your family, especially Chris and Ms. Blondenia. Even though you're no longer here, you'll forever be a part of my heart. I will always remember the good times and bad times we shared. I miss you and I will see you again someday.

My thoughts and prayers go out to my Aunt Blond and the family of Kish. Kish was my cousin and I loved him dearly, I didn't remember much about him but that of which I did remember were only good memories. Kish was apart of my family as much as anyone else's and I miss him dearly. I pray that my Aunt will be ok and Chris stay strong he's in a better place. He is watching over you protecting you. He will always be here in the spirit. I just wish I could have seen him again. Because I was devastated when I found out and also scared. But I know he was loved and he's doing better than he was on earth.

When I heard on 9/11, I couldn't and I did not want to believe it. I still dont want to. I didnt even want to sign this guest book because I didn't want to accept it, but it has trully eaten away at me.Kish was my boy ,and my classmate at ACA from day one.

He was one of the most honest and genuine people ever met. His outgoing personality drew everybody to him. It really cuts deep because we went through some of the same dark times together and I always thought one day we would end up in the light together. I feel like he was so cheated and I could have done more while he was here, but God has a plan. We cant expect to know what that is. If I know Kish he's at Gods side.(probably asking all the questions he always wanted to know). Yall know he was like that.My heart truly goes out to his family and he will always be remembered.



Kish: I know you watching from above.

I'm gonna make it for both of us, man.

To the Gibson and Barrington Families,



My heart goes out to your family during this difficult time.



Kish had been a part of my family for six years. Whenever I saw my daughter Koren, there was Kish. Kish was always soft-spoken, shy yet a strong and confident young man. Talented, he was truly the artist. My heart greives for your family and my daughter Koren, who loved Kish dearly. The two of them were best friends.



I pray that our hearts will be healed in time. I will continue to pray for Kish. I will miss him, but will never forget him.



With deepest sympathy,

LaRonda Hill and family.

MY LIFE IS BUT A PAINTING

BETWEEN MY LORD AND ME

THE STROKES UPON THE CANVAS

I PAUSE SOMETIMES TO SEE

DAILY ADDED ARE THEY BY THE MASTER'S HAND



AND I KNOW FOR MY LIFE HE HAS MADE A PLAN.

GOD CHOOSING EACH DAY THE COLORS TO USE,

SOME NOT MATCHING AND SOME SEEMING TO CONFUSE,

BUT THAN I REALIZE TO HIM THIS MUST BE LEFT,

FOR IT IS ONLY THROUGH HIS POWER I AM KEPT,

AND IF BY THE WAYSIDE I SHOULD SLIP OR FALL

HE ALWAYS COMES TO LIFT ME UP, I'M NOT ALONE AT ALL

AND WHEN HE CALLS ME AND MY LIFE HERE IS DONE, I'LL UNDERSTAND AND KNOW JUST WHY THIS ALL HAD TO COME



MUCH LOVE YOUR COUSIN MILDRED

Aunt Blonde and my dearest uncle,

I know you can appreciate the great mysteries of life far more perceptionally than a lot of people. Your son was and still is a guiding light for the enchanted to see. He was very wise for his age and I always thought that that was peculiar. He came to me many times at my office and I had the honor of taking care of his "flesh" when he was ill. His mind was always unscathed,however;crystal clear and free from malice, he was a gentle spirit and a wind of time. Kish was in his human form not unlike all of us , he was a great traveller, he is called to an even greater metamorphosis now. We all will see him again soon. May the spirit that is God bless my whole family and yield us the prudence to endure. till we meet again cousin I love you.

Our tears seem to have no end. But I know that even if they do not cease, the time will come when they will be for the joy of treasured memories, for an extraordinary life shared, for knowing we shall see my beautiful nephew again. Using this mode of expression is as therapy. Kish, a part of us died with you; but knowing you live in unspeakable joy strengthens our hope in The Resurrection and The Life. I will always love you.

I attended school with Kish in 1998. I met Kish in 1997, while I thought that I knew how to play pool, Kish informed me that I was doing it wrong. I he taught me how to really play. And this is just one of my memories with Kish. I loved Kish, and it hurt my spirit deeply to know that he passed on to God. But I know that it is okay now. My condolences to all family and friends that love and know the MAN. Kish. I will not forget.

To the family, friends, and college mates of Kish:



I remember the first time that I met Kish. It was fall 1996, the first semester of our freshman year at Atlanta College of Art, during registration. He approached me and asked, "And what is your name"? After that, I used to always call him "Snoop Doog". I will never forget that. We were both advertising design majors togather, and had many classes togather where we had a special bond. We worked in groups often, in which Kish always had very strong opinions about every subject. Over all, this is a huge lost to society. Kish will be missed especially by the Atlanta College of Art family. Peace.

It's unfortunate for me to find out that we were living in Atlanta at the same time and for some reason we did not reaquaint ourselves. Kish you will be missed on this earth, may you find peace in the hereafter.
