Im shocked i didnt kno u was a very sweet person an gd friend my condolences to ur family u will be truly missed live on my gd friend

I, as you neighbor for many years my heart is broken. I really have no words to express how I’m feeling. My thoughts and prayers go out to the ENTIRE Pitts/Burrell family.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾❤️💯

Today marks 1 month that i have not seen nor talk to you guys. I  miss you both like crazy. I dream about you both hear your voices and get very sad. This  is going to be the first holiday without my turn up brother and sister but i am going to try to the make the best of it as you guys will want me to. Love you keep resting peacefully.


Oh wow , I don’t have many words to express how much love I have for Trina, but I would love to express my sympathy to her beautiful children whom she loved very much! You all were so very blessed to have had Trina for a mom so hold your memories close and I know you have plenty. And know that God is so caring and loving and he knows your mom loved you very much and he promises in the Bible at Acts 24:15 to have a resurrection so please read this and draw comfort in the days ahead when you start to feel sad or confused because God is the greatest comforter and can and will come through on his promises. And to Trinas parents you all had a beautiful and precious daughter who loved you so much and the qualities she displayed such as being a loving and caring person says something about you all as her parents , you all should hold onto your precious memories and keep them close to your heart ,  in those days to come when things get dim and they will please draw comfort from God and his word he’s the greatest comforter and knows we need help to deal with the unnatural death of a loved on.   And on a more personal note Trina is and always will be in my heart , she came into my life when she was a young girl hanging out with my children and nieces and nephews she soon became a part of our family. Back in 2003 I lost my son in death . It’s was one of the most difficult times in my life , and I had many many people come and offer support and help which I appreciated greatly, but what I remember most about Trina during this time she came and kept coming and calling to make sure I was alright. She literally sent me a card each day of the week for a while and I have every last one of them which I go back and read and if anyone know my family they will tell you how often I speak about Trina and how much I love her. When I heard of her losing her grandma I sent her a message she was supposed to come see me when she got bk! But it’s ok we will meet up! We will Soon!

Trina,
Getting to know you from May  2019-Oct 2020, and being able to call you my friend has truly been a privilege, and an honor. I am heart broken that you are gone from this earth, but your memory will live on in my heart.  

Your Friend,
                                                          Moe                 
                     

Dear Trina, 
I am so hurt. You were one of my best friends. I know time and distance got away from us, but when we did talk there was no need to catch up we started from where we left off. You had my kids in love with spongebob, you brought out the free spirit in me, and you were one of the few I let shorten my name. You will be greatly missed.
Dear Terrell, 
you were my little birthday brother, there was a time when I made sure to call you and your dad on your birthdays, and you would call me on mine. I always saw you full of life with no negativity.  
From your Detroit sister Trice, Rest Peacefully XOXO

My dearest baby brother and sister, 
  I was with you in your last hour of life.
Just know that I tried to protect you as I always have.
You guys were truly the soul of this family and none of us can ever fill those shoes. I am so sorry that I failled you this night.
Absent from the body is to be present with the lord. Now it's your turn to watch over us, my two beautiful angles....
I miss you guys so much and although I try to be strong,  I can't stop crying...
  Stay together as you always have. 
I love you both with whole soul.....
Your crying big brother Gerald...

Dear Jonathan,

I truly miss you boo. You were the friend I never had and this is hard for me to write. You were a beautiful and humble person, with a kind and wonderful spirit. You treated everyone with respect and never passed judgement. I'm still sad, because our first time meeting in person was our last time. I will never forget about you. I will forever cherish our moments and memories. Rest on King. Give Trina and grandma a huge hug for me.

Dear Trina,

You meant alot to me and I will never ever forget about you Queen. You were a kind and beautiful woman. You had a heart of gold with a beautiful smile. You were fun and very ambitious diva. Writing this got me in tears and I hate it's not tears of joy. I will always cherish the memories and moments we shared. Rest on Queen and give Johnathan a huge hug for me.

Two of the best angels that graced us with their presence. There smile , laughter and genuine concern for others will be missed forever. They did everything together. Everything. It’s only right that they do this last deed together. They gained there wings to soar above us and give us a little bit of laughter and comfort daily. Sleep on, only to fly again. 

Johnathan ,

The tears in my eyes can't deny how I feel inside, its a hurting feeling that I can't hide. I just can't Imagine life without you by my side. In my eyes you couldn't do no wrong ,you were truly an angel in disguise.  I will always love you. R.I.P. love

Katrina,

You were a positive and out going person. I looked at you as my sister and friend. Thanks for treating me like one of your own . R.I.P. 

My dear friends I will miss you , The many times we laughed and kicked it. You will forever be on my mind and in my heart . I PRAY YOU SLEEP WELL UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN . LOVE YOU ALWAYS 

I’m sorry i couldn’t be here for this day . This will never be okay with me i will miss y’all and love y’all forever 

I swear y’all broke my heart everybody knew y’all were my favorite uncle and auntie . I will always remember the last time i saw y’all . I will forever miss you 

Trina, my tell it like it is cousin, unapologetically you. You always showed what living life and love is. I will always carry that with me. You always had a moment to share what you knew with me. I looked at you and I could always see that determination didn’t mean you couldn’t have fun. You are leaving an everlasting legacy of love, laughter, hard work, and what living is all about. Hearing you and Terrell laugh is helping me stay strong. I love you always!

I love you! I will miss most the laughter and love that always surrounded you. T you always cheered the loudest for me when you were around, I will be sure to pass that forward. I keep thinking of when you took me to Navy Pier and Buckingham Fountain. We have always had a bond that I couldn’t explain and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I love you always!

Love you two,  welcomed me into the family with open arms  and always made sure we had a ball when we visited in Chicago. Two beautiful angels you will truly be missed by Me, Marcus and the kids . 

My dear Sister and Brother: This  has been one of the hardest thing for me to do is coming to this page and seeing you guys faces. You guys are truly missed. This was never suppose to happen to neither one of you. I love you so much. Terrell i miss hearing you  calling me suge (lol). Trina i miss hearing your voice saying i love you sister. Kiss Malik for guys love you until we meet again.

My heart aches everyday because I lost my sister Katrina Pitts.  You were a mother, sister, friend, and just a lovely woman to know.  We had many laughs, talks, and fun at all the family gatherings.  You were outgoing and anything you wanted in life whether for your family or self, you always made it happen.  I will be there for your babygirl Autumn to make sure she know how much you loved her and want her to succeed in life and for your son we will continue to watch him honor your wishes to be the best man he can be.  I  love you and rest in heaven my guardian angel Katrina Pitts!

My heart aches everyday to hear your voice, your laugh from a joke one of us told, or just to hear you say love you babygirl and it's 5 o'clock somewhere in the world, so lets have a drink.  We talked everyday and I never thought that Thursday night was going to be the last time I saw your face and give you a hug for safe travels to Mississippi for your grandmother's homegoing services.  I lost my brother, my friend, and  a big piece of my heart.  Christmas won't ever be the same without you because we had so much fun trimming the tree for the holidays.  I love you and will always miss you.  Rest in heaven my guardian angel Jonathan Terrell Pitts!

Words can express how I feel... Terrell you will be in heart forevermore! Trina you exemplify what unconditional love truly is my Sister.  You both were Angels here on earth.. YOU BOTH HAVE TOUCHED SO MANY LIVES. I am thankful,  so grateful to have been blessed by your presence.  Until We meet again ..My Brother,  My Sister!
Much Love

Everyday  I wake up thinking this was just a bad dream . It’s hard to face reality that both of you really gone and never coming back . Although you’re my aunt and uncle  you both were like a brother and sister . We sing the same songs, eat each other food, laugh at each other , you guys have given me advice and wiped my tears away when needed . I’m going to miss you both so much and I love you guys forever. 

Two of the most kind hearted individuals I am glad I had the opportunity to have in my life. I could not ask for a better for my niece and nephew. Trina can never be replaced, that unique laugh and big heart.  This is unreal, but you are in a better place.  Even though you both was taken too soon, you have left your mark and will not be forgotten. I love you!!!!

 I am deeply saddened by the news of Jonathan and Katrina. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. 

It was always a pleasure bumping into Jonathan at work. He always had a smile and brought laughter into the room.  He was a joy to know.

Please accept my condolences

Jonathan, you will be missed.   “Rachael Ray”


MISSING YOU
We’re missing you a little more each time we hear your name, or see a picture. 

 We cried so many tears yet our hearts broken just the same. We miss our time together things in common we could share, But nothing fills the emptiness now you’re no longer here.

We have so many precious memories to last our whole life through,  each  one of them reminders of much we’re missing you

Love you Trina & Terrell

Love you Trina & Terrell 

This is one tough pill to swallow. I along with everyone else cannot believe they are gone.

Terrell welcomed me with open arms when I first met him, but I knew Katrina wasn't sure about me. She protected her brothers to the fullest. Especially when she introduced herself to me as "Hurricane Katrina". She wasn't playing, she would snatch me up if she had too. 

Katrina and Terrell and may you rest Eternally.  LOVE YOU BOTH IMMENSELY 

Man I have know words, just prayers for his family. We had some really fun outing together and I will always remember Terrell smile as he busted up laughing at Bishop jokes. Man RIH   
Dale

Trina and Terrell words cannot express the sadness feel everyday knowing I can’t pick up the phone and hear your voices. My world is torn to pieces  I do thank God for allowing me to have the best cousins one can ask for. 

Remembering the things we did together, puts a smile on my face and happiness in my heart. I will forever treasure those memories. 

Sending peace, comfort and strength to my family 

Trina, We basically grew up together. From Lil Key, Big Key, Douglass and Austin you was always a sweetheart. I'll cherish every moment we spoke, laughed and hung out. I thank God for the friendship we had and you'll never be forgotten. My friend, My Libra Queen I love you and miss you. Blessings 

you were the best BFF in the whole world never changed was just such a beautiful person in and out fly angel fly i will never forget how you were there for me gone but never forgotten. 

We were shocked and saddened to learn about the loss of Katrina and Jonathan. Both were beautiful souls taken too soon. We're sorry we can't show our support in person. We will continue to keep all of you in our prayers.

With Love,
Cynthia and Valerie Parker
