"When the heart grieves over what it has lost, the spirit rejoices over the memories left behind." By Sufi

Junior please know that we mourn with you and your family and Aunty Janet's extended family wherever we stand at this time. Aunty has left with us the memory of what sharing caring and love for each other means. This is by far one of the hardest pills to swallow, but we put our trust in God that no matter what, He knows best. We may never understand and we will each heal in different ways and at different pace, but I know we will all live with the memory of aunty in our hearts.

Love, The Nicholsons Ryan, Carlene, Slavonie and Nicholene

To my dearest Cousin. We reconnected at my Mother's funeral - Eula May Curate on 20 March 2024. You will be forever in my heart, you were a blessed soul and will be greatly missed by me and your wonderful family. Rest in eternal peace - Carlos /Brian Stewart.

Such a sweet soul. We share our birthdays around the same time. I taught her a little about stock trading, and we discussed health issues due to my career as an RN. She was my friend. We were planning to take a cruise in the future. I could go on and on. Sleep in peace, my lovely friend. Until we meet again. My sincerest condolences to the family. Praying the Almighty comforts you all.

Our prayers of comfort and peace to Junior and the family. God grant you the strength to bear your loss, but help you smile when you remember the beautiful memories shared. Stampp family -Texas

While Im only recently learning how to accept that we are not immortals but why can't we all just have extra time ....I'm at a loss for words feeling extremely disappointed in myself for not reconnecting sooner with "You" - now it's too late - But I have always had "You" in my heart ! "You" played a very brief but still very significant "Step Mother" role, being there for me and my younger brother Alex starting on the day we lost our mother on "Mother's Day " I was only 9 and my brother 7yrs old turning 8 just 2 days later on May 14th - Im still grieving my mother Evey Mothers Day that comes around and now losing yet in another tragic way my second Mom - I'm truly devastated- I don't deal with tragic loss very well and so it's hard to truly express myself and hard for me console other family members such as Junior, my dear cousin Sonia , Jackie and the rest of the family- I can only share in knowing what it feels like to lose a mother waaay too soon and there is no right or wrong way for processing grief especially when we are caught off guard by such a tragic event. My heart is heavy but just know "You" will remain always remain in my heart โค๏ธ- Deneish

My sincere and dearest condolences to Junior and the family. Ms Lou was like a grandma to me, my dearest friend. Her presence light up any room she was in. Whenever she didn't hear or see me for a long period of time - she would say "pickney gyal a long time mi nuh see yuh". She will be truly missed by all. Fly high Ms Lou Nicole - GK

I'll always remember the first day I met you at the shop and the hard time you gave me which made me wanted to quit until I found out who you were. It won't be the same not being able to hear things like " mi nuh like ugly people " or "galong you fava mi".. to sir J and family my sincere condolences on your tragic lost. Sounds cliche but I believe it's true God knows best!! Stay strong and we love you guys!! From the Bennetts

Those who touch our lives, stay in our hearts forever. Danny, Tanya, Jody, Danielle and Danya.

Rest in peace granny! Still can't believe you teach me a lesson life is not promise. Honeycreek won't be the same without you. Take care ma'am miss you.

You will forever be in our hearts

I called her Mummy, as did my family! No relation, just out of respect because she ALWAYS engaged lovingly with such deep care and concern for us - GENUINE! When I heard the news, I was devastated! My sister called me and told me and immediately, I told my 13yr old daughter, we wept! She advised me what to eat when I was pregnant with that one and watched her grow - nothing special about us, but OH Mummy was just the dearest person. Could make us laugh despite life! Always encouraging, always smiling. 'Why yuh nuh get a basket?' We would laugh as she said it because she knew when I ran in to get just a hand full of items, I'd meander and still wind up getting the cart for the amount of groceries. I will miss her and I know that as much as I feel this loss, her son Junior and all her loved ones are impacted so much more. So, my prayers are with you all today and always. I know she loved The Lord, and He has received her home. Soon, God Almighty will enable you to remember Mummy with more joy than sorrow and until that day comes, I pray He strengthens you and comforts your sorrow.

Regards,

Vincia

To Junior and family, please accept our deepest condolence on the passing of your mom. She was a beacon of light in the Conyers area. She made us all welcome when we enter her store. Pleasant, caring, fun, encouraging, are some of the words to describe her. May her soul rest in peace and may God comfort you as you mourn her passing. From Maisie and Earl.

Junior and family. I know it is a difficult time now but together we can make it. Let's reminisce on the good times with her. Think about the fun and laughter that she cause to happen in our circle. Let's learn from her resilience. She has overcome many challenges but God knows why she is gone at this particular time . Our God who is the giver of strength, peace and comfort will never leave you nor forsake you. Hope thou in the Lord.

We were deeply saddened to hear about the loss of your mother. Please accept our heartfelt condolences during this incredibly difficult time.

From what I've heard, your mother was a phenomenal woman. What good memories you must have. Lean on them to remind you of the joy she brought into your life. May her soul rest in peace.

My condolences to the family. My Lou Lou, I miss and love you dearly. Your sweet voice whenever i leave saying "alright mi baby'. It will never be the same. Words can't explain the void left behind to those who knew and love you.

Always a joke - always laughter where she was. Good times! Good vibes! Gone to join those who have gone before. May her soul rest in peace. Marcia A. Stewart
