My Precious Daughter, there is no one else on earth so special as you were to me. I hold you forever, my precious daughter, in my heart and memory. Words cannot describe the loss I feel saying farewell to you. Letting you go was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do; I wish I had one more chance to see that happy smile and to hold you close again daughter; just for a little while. I wish that I could hold your hand and make everything alright. I would tell you that it’s not the end; not goodbye, only good night. - Your Mom, Anissa Quinn

Missing you so much De’Zia. You left us broken hearted, not knowing what to do; but now we find such comfort in the memories of you. The legacy you left us was of happiness and love and that shines on forever from the glorious skies above. You brought joy and beauty from the moment of your birth. Now, in Heaven you’re an angel just as you were on earth. -Your Dad, Dennis Lee Bailey

I wish I could see you one more time walking through the door, but I know that is impossible. I will hear your voice no more. I know you can feel my tears and you don’t want me to cry yet my heart is broken because I can’t understand why someone precious had to die. I pray that God will give me strength and somehow get me through as I struggle with this heartache that came when I lost you. My big sister and my best friend; I love you De’Zia!  -   Demereion “Man Man” Bailey
