Great friends are hard to find and I'm just delighted I was able to call you mine...I look at pictures of all of us together often and things still don't seem real I wish we could have had more time with you! Rest on Angel

Jamila/Jayme is with God because he told me, I truly miss my sister.Thank God that she touched so many lives.May God make his presence known to us all.

Dear Aunty,
You were a good aunty to us and your kids.  We miss you.  I remember when you picked me and Jalen up from preschool, and all the other things we did over your house.  Sometimes you'd take us to get ice cream and call us for our birthdays and go to the park together.  I'll keep checking the eggs and I'll see you in heaven.
Love,

Dear Aunty, 
You were a loving, caring, aunt, mother, sister and daughter.  We will miss you always and see you in heaven.  I remember when you picked us up from school until mom and dad picked us up and when we lived just steps away from each other.  I love you.
Your neice, 
Eliza

To my dear sister, friend, prayer partner and warrior, the person who's always been there for me and always looked out for me...I miss you so much and am so blessed to have had you in my life.  I love you!

My daughter's breath.
You were a breath of fresh air when you were born. God's gift to a mother..
I held you  close in my arms only for a short time.
God wanted you with him to keep you covered. You are in my heart always and forever. 
Love,  Mom

That shy look, that impish smile, that heartfelt laugh. Talking about God, life, early morning prayer. The genuine concern for every student. Those things and more.   I already miss your bubbly presence on this earthly bench but I will meet you again on that heavenly bench above. My prayers are with the family always. Rest with God.

May God continue to keep His loving arms around your family at this time. Your warm spirit and smile will be remembered.

Its so hard to believe that you are gone,I only knew you for 3 years and everyday that I have seen you you always had a smile on your face and so full of enjoyment.My sons Terrence and Jermarrius loved you and talked about you so much and I know how much you enjoyed them,you would be missed but never forgotten at mahalia jackson,it was like yesterday when I saw you and I miss you forever and always.

To Jewell and family!
"Sometimes" we find comfort in words from those who care for us; "All the time" we find comfort in the ONE who loves us.  One of our favorite promises is that the Lord said that He would never leave us or forsake us!  Trust us, we know!!! 
We Love You
Your family in the South~

We love you!

It was pleasure working with you!!! I will miss the jokes. You would be truly miss but not forgotten. Your hard work and dedication to the students at Jackson was valuable!!! My God bless your family.

It was a pleasure working with you & seeing your smiling face at Jackson! You will be missed by many, especially the lives you touched on a daily basis. May God continue to comfort your family, especially your children during this difficult time!

It was a pleasure working with you Jamila.  Your love for the students at Jackson was genuine.  You were always going out of your way to make sure they had what they needed.  I will miss your smile and your encouraging words.  I am very sad you are gone, but blessed to have known you.

I will miss out "fashion" chats, your smile and seeing you in the hallway with the students.

There are few times in life when I am speechless, as those who know me will confirm, and this is one of them! I will never forget Jamilas' kind heart and warm spirit. I will pray for her babies as they are the ones who will need us the most! God bless.

I will miss our fashion"chats" and seeing you with the children.......It was my pleasure to have shared time with you.

Oh Jamila, when I saw your picture on this website my heart just broke again. When I learned of your passing I was so sad and heart broken. I am glad that we cross paths during this lifetime. I cherish the memories we made during our time we spent together. Thank you for supporting me when I came back to Chicago, thank you for your help and guidance you gave me during a difficult time in my life. We shared a similar path in life and I will never forget that. I will continue to pray for you and your family. Rest in Peace baby girl! I am sure God has given you, your wings!

You will be truly missed. Reach out in Jesus' name. With hands of love and care. To those who are in need and caught in life's despair.

It is still unbelievable that I'm writing this in your memory. You were not just a co- worker you were a friend ,my girl, my oatmeal buddy with your turkey bacon eating self, my come on girl I want to go to the school function but I'm not going if you don't. I miss you girl. Thought I heard your voice today laughing as you entered the kitchen, as always just to say "hey girl"  then it hit me that you were gone. We came to MJES around the same time and from day one we've been girls. It is with great pleasure to have been able to know such a kindhearted loving person. Although you're gone you'll never be forgotten. Rest In Paradise.

I will truly miss you,it is so  hard to say good bye so I will say,see you later baby girl.Im truly bless to have met and outstanding woman like you,may God bless you and your family rest in peace beautiful you will be miss.

'To The World, You May Be One Person'; but 'To One Person, You May Be The World'! That's who you were Jamila....I've only known you for a little while; however, the conversations we shared were heartfelt...You were such an inspiration to the students of Mahalia Jackson ES. There was nothing you wouldn't do just for the asking! I often shared with you how I appreciated you for the things you did to assist me.. I 'already' miss you standing in the doorway of the lunchroom upon my morning arrivals with that smile on your face. I am going to miss the support, the love, the greetings that you gave to us all. God has called another one of his Angels home!.. May God continue to strengthen us as we try to comprehend the sudden loss of your presence.  You are and forever will be missed!....

I truly miss you. I keep looking for you...to see your smiling face, hear your infectious laugh somewhere in the school building.  It was a pleasure to have known such a kind person who had to love of life in them.  Rest in peace.

You will be truly missed.  I am thankful to God for our paths crossing.  Your spirit will never be forgotten.

It was a pleasure to work with someone so positive and helpful. Your beautiful smile and your presence will be missed, but memories of you will last forever. Rest peacefully beautiful!!

Life Is Forever
Death Is a Dream
It's so hard to say Good-Bye. I was grateful to have known you and working with you. I, will remember you for your witty sayings. You touched a lot of people. Good-Bye my friend.

Your beautiful smile and upbeat spirit will forever be remembered in our hearts.  
Rest in Peace!!  Mrs. Tamara Martin (Mahalia Jackson-Speech)

What can I say about my buddy, my pal, and my partner in educating our wonderful students. I will miss your teasing, and your looks you would give me when I said something crazy. I'll never forget how you kept me going last summer. I will forever miss you, and rest in God's love.

You will truly be missed and remembered, but we shall see each other again in paradise until then rest in peace.

It is difficult to say goodbye to you dear one. Your beautiful, caring spirit will be remembered by your friends and loved ones forever. It's not how long you were here with us that's important, but the lives you touched and the love you shared while on your journey. Rest in the loving arms of Jesus.
