Kecia,
With tears in my eyes and sadness in my heart I am writing to wish you a happy birthday. I am still not believing that you are really gone. I kept seeing rest in peace Kecia however, it was not until I seen the pictures and then the call from my baby brother saying you had passed away. Kecia I remember the very first day meeting the shy little girl with the big smile in the Sursum Corda library joining the BigSister/Little Sister program were you became my lil sister. We lost touch then found each other again. However, God called you home rest in paradise with him and I will see later. Dr. Reesie

Happy 46th Birthday Little Sister! I wish you were here to celebrate your day but I know you are jamming in Heaven with Sylvia, Pat, Ma Combs, Grandma and Grandpa Ford and Cousin Tony. I couldn't stop the tears today once I picked up the phone to call you. I am trying Kecia but all I can say is Lord it is just not fair. Jesus please help me to remember that you don't make any mistakes. I am in so much pain. Missing you always.

You had such a beautiful spirit and always gave me the best advice and showed genuine LOVE towards me. I am completely heartbroken by your passing but because of the Love I have for you, I'm glad your resting peacefully now. You will forever be my Big Sis! LOVE YOU FOREVER AND ALWAYS

I just keep thinking of your smile with tears in my eyes. You never showed any other kind of emotion always happy and easy going. I think back to our younger days when we would be hanging out, it would be a Tuesday we would have plans (you, Risa and I) to go skating, you and I would be braiding hair I would have 2 clients and you would have 1, I would call and ask if you were done you would say no Miss Judd you are to fast (lol). Those were the good days. So many happy years together and a friendship that will always be and never forgotten. I MISS YOU BFF

My friend, my bff...things will never be the same without you. You were a one of a kind friend the person who was always there no matter what. You gave me advice, you never judged, and definitely never turned your back. Day 1 has past since I last saw you and its still hard to imagine not seeing you or hearing your voice. You know people would always ask you "why your friend look so mean and you would always respond and say "don't pay her no mind she haven't had her medication today", I want you to know I finally taken my medication as a matter of fact I have had several dosage to get me through this lost, but its a good dosage cause I know you are in a better place watching over me.....I will miss you, I will love u 4ever and always cherish the friendship that we shared...I will never say good bye because I will see you again

Words can't express the hurt and pain that we feel from your passing. However, I'll forever cherish your BIG beautiful smile, kindness and friendship over the years. To know you was to LOVE you and all the times that your grandmother and Ms. Cynthia allowed us to hang at your house just bcus girls wanted to have fun. You had and made countless friends even though an only child bcus you showed yourself friendly to all and gained extended sistas and family as a result. So sorry that you had to leave us this soon but GOD is able to keep us and I'm trusting him to comfort our hearts with the memories from over the years. So glad to have known you and you'll forever be with us in our hearts... Rest in Paradise bcus you've earned your wings. God Bless U Sweet Angel!!! *tears*

Kecia I remember first meeting you. I came in your room and you said make sure you wipe the bleach off and you said it with a smile.I visit you again and you remembered me from the last time and said "can you find out where my Burberry coat is?" I said yes and came to visit you again to update you but you were resting. I came another day and you were up talking and I said I told you I didn't forget you and you said you sure didn't. I told you I will be back tomorrow to check on you after my lunch. As I was finishing my lunch I was on my way but when I got there they said you are gone. I was heartbroken and sad. I asked to leave work that day because I didn't feel up to it.I want you to still know that those word's still remain. "I WILL NOT FORGET YOU KECIA" YOU HAVE YOUR WINGS NOW SOAR. #MYNEWFRIENDANDANGEL

Kecia, I'm so lost for words right now. I can't find the right words to say what I'm feeling. I know that I'm going to truly miss you. You have always, always treated me like family since day one. I've loved you as my big sister/friend since I was 10. Everytime we saw each other we laughed so hard about our childhood. You had the most beautiful smile that lit up the entire universe. Everytime we departed one another we always gave each other the biggest hugs and told each other "I love you". You will be missed on earth, but your memories will be everlasting. This is not good bye, this is...I will see you in the next life. May you rest peacefully. I love you and will miss you my sister/friend. Fly on my Angel your work is now done. .
