My sympathy goes out to your family and friends at this time. May you find comfort in the scriptural promises at Isaiah 25:8, 9 and Acts 24:15; promises made by a God that cannot lie. Rely on God for comfort in the days ahead and may the love of family and friends carry you through your grief.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Cousin, words can not express how much I will miss you. We were born two days a part. We shared birthday parties together, we played basketball together, Granny fussed at us together...how I miss those days. We hugged so tight the last time I saw you. It hurts to know that I can not hug you again, but I receive comfort knowing that you are with the Lord and the family who have left here before us. I will see you again in Heaven! I love you so much Jay Jay!

Jay... I'm still in shock. I've known you since you a child. Every time you saw me you either hugged me or waved. You were very respectful. I'm going to miss you walking in the hood rapping. Such a tragedy... RIP... Prayers to your mom and Star. Milk's mom...

Hey hey Diane, Trina, Star, and more (Day One FAMILY) haven't seen you guys in forever. Nevertheless, I am hurting with and for you guys; KNOW the bond your family shares. Please stay strong as much as you can. Crying and anger are healthy signs of relief. Jay (my little boyfriend) obviously from a child you were still sharing your love to many people. Thanks JR for deciding to be that sacrificial lamb (life and death don't offer mistakes; most people don't understand) your death is NOT in vein. Thanks for your awakening: I am sure today you have brought families together. I am sure your sudden transition was disruptive, but it will lead people to peace and help others realize what they are missing. People will notice they're wasting TIME (either with others or situations), that CANNOT be regained. HOLD YOUR HEAD UP FAMILY!!! JAY was not a mistake when he entered this world and he DAME SHO ain't no mistake leaving. Suffering endures for a night but JOY WILL come in the MORNING. With LOVE ALWAYS

Tiffany left a message on March 29, 2017:
My cousin/brother. Where do I begin?? Do I start from the beginning when you where our little JR , who everyone adored, who everyone fell in love with those "pretty eyes", then Jay, whom everyone continued to love and adore as you matured into a good man. I could go on and on, but it is some many memories and laughs and stories to last me forever, that I will hold on to and cherish you and your memory. As much as this hurts and I don't want to accept it, I take comfort in knowing that you are at your final resting place with our God and all our loved ones who have went on to eternity. I know Granny and Grandad welcomed you with loving arms. I LOVE YOU JAY!!! I will miss you forever, watch over Deante, Dionne and Dre , be their guardian angel, as they love and miss you tremendously. We will continue to hold you down on this side. I Promise.

Michael Ivey (your nephew) left a message on March 28, 2017:
Uncle you were the best uncle anyone could ask for, but it was unfortunate that those people took your life for no particular reason. That's messed up. You didn't deserve to pass like that. You deserve to pass away in piece. But at least your in a better place now.

T. Kelly left a message on March 27, 2017:
Though I know that this is a difficult time for you, my hope is that you will be comforted from God's inspired word the Bible. John 5:28,29 and Revelation 21: 3,4 gives hope of a future resurrection and the complete elimination of death, pain and mourning. Under Jesus' kingdom rule we have this and much more to look forward to. Please accept my deepest condolences.
