HOME DEPOT sent Beautiful Dreams for Nikita Jermaine Bethea - May 18, 2026

Send flowers for Nikita Jermaine Bethea

To my Latta High School best friend Nikita Manning Bethea.

You were always a joy to be around and a brother to me from day one. I am so happy that we got to know each other personally and had a friendship that lasted from the first day we met up until your death over 30-years later.

Although, we both had life changing experiences that took us away from each other for a while, we always found each other and remain in constant contact until we were able to reunite again which happened last year 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia. Boy, did we have a time.

We reminisced about old times, caught up on new times, went out to eat at my favorite restaurants and we danced the night away in the Atlanta Night Life Scene. We had so much fun.

Then I returned the favor to you and went to see you in Raleigh, N.C. Where our conversations continued and I gave you words of encouragement after your final major medical procedure.

I want you to know that I came from Atlanta, Georgia to your funeral in South Carolina, although i didn't even go to my own 1/2 brother, niece, Aunt, both Uncles or Father funeral, but I made the long journey to come to yours, so show you how much you meant to me and the love I always have for you.

Although, i debated about posting YOUR HOMECOMING on my Instagram at: 3pentertainmentempire or my Facebook page at: Ramirez Williams but I did, and it now have surpassed all my other 350 post in viewer numbers expect "Big Freedia" husband funeral. So that says something.

My high school BBF is running my numbers up even in death and you will always live forever in every life you ever touched, my memory of you and on Social Media.

Your funeral was fitting of a king and very touching and Heart felt. People really loved and cared for you and spoke about it. The traffic STOPPED in its tracks as your funeral procession made its way to your final resting place. It was magical to see cars, trucks, 18-wheelers, U.S. Mailman trucks and even an ambulance stop for a KING that was coming through. I never seen nothing like it.

You will be missed but never forgotten. Take your well needed rest. Hold a spot for me in Heaven because you are an angel and I know that is where you now call home. Until we meet again. I love you. I will forever miss you.

Sincerely, your high school best friend,

Ramirez Williams aka Diamond aka Celebrity

You where a king and your still a king in Heaven now! Love Always ! Charlene

Nikita,Nikita,Nikita😩😢💔 Some people enter your life for a season, but you were one of the rare ones who became part of my life story forever. From childhood classmates to lifelong best friends, we shared a bond that distance and time could never break. No matter how many miles separated us, the laughter, love, conversations, and friendship always remained the same. Thank you for years of beautiful memories, for your loyalty, your heart, and for always being a true friend. Losing you has left a space in my heart that can never be replaced, but I will forever be grateful for every moment we shared. You were deeply loved, Nikita, and will be equally missed. Rest peacefully My Bestie💙😭💔I love you! -Sheila Morrison

Deepest condolences. I'm praying for family and friends 🙏❤️. GOD is giving strength and Comfort. Be encouraged.

Kita and I used to work together at Golden corral when I moved to Garner. He used to dance while he washed those dishes and we became great friends. He used to watch my twins and he was one of the best friends a girl could have. We used to talk about the many trips he would take and how much we missed one another. Time was taken for granted and I wish I had one more day to see him. Ill miss you Kita, or as he would say..(nikita Jermaine Terrell Joaquin bethea)! He was proud of his name lol. Take your rest my friend, I love you and ill miss you forever!

With heart felt sympathy and prayers. A light to many, and a soul whose presence carried strength, kindness, and faith. Though words cannot remove sorrows of his loss, we pray that the peace of the Lord will surround the family and loved ones during this difficult season. "The Lord is near the brokenhearted and saved the crushed in spirit." - Psalm 34:18

May God grant comfort where there is pain, strength where there is weakness, and peace that surpasses all understanding. Jermaine labor, love, and faithfulness will never be forgotten, and his legacy will continue to live on in the hearts of all who are blessed to know him.

To the family, we pray the arms of the Lord hold you close and carry you through every moment ahead. The earth has lost a faithful servant but heaven has gained another solider welcomed home. Your impact will remain forever.

Hello with great sympathy I am praying for Jermaine family and friends. I was Jermaine elementary teacher who he kept up with over the years. He would share with me his ups and downs. I couldn't have asked for a better student. Does anyone know how I can contact his family members. ? Thanks Ms Harrell
