You have our heartfelt sympathy and we are praying for your families. May God keep you in His care. He said He will never leave us nor forsake us...ever! I'd like to leave you with 2 Timothy 4:7-8 both Herbert and Angel, you have fought the good fight, you've kept the faith. Now there is in store for you the crown of righteousness, which the Lord the righteous Judge will award to you on that day--and not only to you but to all who have longed for His appearing.
We will continue to pray for the families. God Bless you.

To The Sharpe/Jackson Family:
I was deeply saddend to hear of this horrific tragedy. I had the priviledge of meeting Herbert when my son (Marc) & I first moved to Richmond, VA. We resided in the community of Dominion Laurel Village where Herbert was our maintenance man for 8 years. My son & little Herb went to High School together. I didn't have the pleasure of knowing Angel, but I know Herbert spoke very highly of his family. He loved them more than life itself. He was one of the nicest people I had the opportunity to meet. He never spoke an unkind word about anyone.
This is an such an unimaginable loss that I can't begin to fathom what the family is feeling.
Let the thought of those supporting you provide you comfort during this difficult time.
"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."
Psalm 45:1
I will continue to keep the family in my thoughts & prayers.

There is no greater loss than the loss of a loved one. Dealing with the loss of two is unimaginable. I can say that with a family made up of so many AMAZING men and women who know more about family and faith than many, your family will take one day at a time to work on healing from this tragedy. Blondine, you and your entire family have my deepest sympathy.

Blondene, I am so sorry to hear of the horrific tragedy you and your family have gone through. I have all of you in my thoughts and prayers. I never had a chance to meet the loved ones you have lost, but from reading all of the entries and hearing about them in the news,I know they were very special christians and this is a great loss to you, your family, and the community. Loosing loved ones is like loosing a piece of yourself, but you will never loose the love they gave you over the years you all had together.

Papa, Words can not even began to describe the pain I am feeling right now. Kiki and I both will miss you more than you will ever imagine. You took me under your wing as your daughter from the first day I met you. From that day forward you have been a wonderful father to me and a excellent papa to kiki "lele". I know that your sweet spirit will continue to shine and bring joy to each and every day. I am deeply hurt that you had to go this way but I was taught never to question God's authority. We both love you. My promise to you is Grandma won't have to worry about a thing. I will take good care of her until she comes and join you. We love you so much!

Oh Dad...you can not know how much you meant you me and all of Angel's friends. Your crazy dancing, singing all the wrong lyrics to the latest hip hop tunes, love for the Redskins and love for you family, especially Mom....will simply be missed. You were just so funny...wearing Mom's diamond studded reading glasses trying to see... :-)
You always treated me, Chimene and Latifa like we were your daughters...you were so proud of EVERYTHING that we did. You raised a beautiful family and set a loving example of how a marriage should work. Your arms were always open to anyone who needed a friend. I know that you and Angel are together playing with my son and Herb and Shelly's twins. You will be missed by all who knew you. Thank you for everything.

To Mama Sharpe & family especially Mary. I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of your loved one, Herbert. There is nothing I can say to express how I feel. But I can say Mr. Herbert was a very nice person and he will be greatly missed. In God's word it states: Look to the hills whence cometh your help because your help cometh from the Lord. I can say that God will take care each one of you. I will not tell you not to cry but I do know when you turn it over to the Lord He will ease your pain it might take days, weeks, months,and maybe years but keep holding on to God's hand he will ease the pain.
I love you all like my own family May God continue to be with you all.
