No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

Although unheard I thank you
For always being there
Even when you were bedridden
You always seemed to care

You meant so much to all of us
you were special and that's no lie
you brightened up the darkest day
and even the greyest sky

Many tears I have seen and cried
They have all poured out like rain
I know that you are happy now
Cause your no longer in pain.

Four years on I remember you
And what you used to say
You made each of us smile
And live to the fullest each day

They say in time it gets easier
I believe this isn't true
Because even after all this time
I still don't have a clue

I was not ready to say goodbye
Your disease just over took
So on this day we remember you
I take a second look

Our friendship is forever
Until death, did we part
Although your away physically
You're always in my heart

My dear friend,
close your eyes...
hold my hand,
and hear me whisper...

For the times I was lost,
you were there to look for me.
Will you believe me when I say I love you more than you'll ever know.
Will you trust me when I say ...this time you have to let me go.

My dear friend, I must leave.
The world no longer needs me.
It's my time to be gone, until we meet again someday.
Don't you cry now, I know I'll be okay.
Trust that I'll never forget you.
Don't be sad now, just close your eyes until it's through.
Hold my hand, don't open your eyes yet...
wait when I no longer whisper..

My dear friend, you'll be fine.
I'll be up there watching over you.
For the times I'll be gone, don't ever forget
the words I whispered to you.

God calls on my name... and I have to let go of your hand now...
Please don't cry... and smile for me..
because I'm with the one who made us friends.

Remember, I'll always love you.
so come, wave me goodbye...
It'll be painful but we have to...
Hug me, hug me tight, feel the words I can no longer say.

My dear friend, I'm going to miss you.
just pray because I'll always listen.
and one day, when it's your time,
I'll be there for you...
Just like the way I used to.
...I love you...

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be.
So She wrapped her arms around you,
and whispered, "come to me."

You didn't deserve what you went through,
So She gave you rest.
God's garden must be beautiful,
She only takes the best

And when I saw you sleeping,
So peaceful and free from pain
I could not wish you back
To suffer that again.

Sorry about the lost of your daughter. My condolences goes out to you and your family in this time of bereavement.

Londa and I were playmates. We used to play on the weekends at Mrs. Mary Mack's house. I never met her as an adult, but from what I can see, she was a princess. I hear that God takes care of princesses and welcomes them into His Kingdom.

To Champion Family,
May God comfort and give you peace during this difficult time.
With Prayers,

Ms. Yolanda!!! Words cannot express how much we will miss you, your smile, and your style. We will cherish the good times we shared and the many jokes we laughed to. It's so hard to belive you're gone, but you're an angel now, so rest on, wear your robe and your golden crown......WE WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU!!! To the family be strong and know that God will bring you through.

Michael and Shelly Crawford

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.

The Montgomery Family wish to express our deepest sympathy to the family of Ms.Yolanda. Our Prayers are with you.

keep smiling dat big smile of yours londa. the best is resting

Famliy, If something could be said to help you thru this, It would be so easy. If there was something anyone of the many guest could do, that to might be somewhat easy.

We often hope that we could ease the hurt, but we can't. If crying, and the many words of comfort could change it all, then it would have already been done. We go thru in order to get thru. We are gonna go thru it with you, directly or indirectly, far or near know that we care about what you are going through and want to help.

This Precious Stone has impacted the life of many and have painted an everlasting picture for 31 years in the lives of all that have directly or indirectly known or met her.

God's Mighty Blessings of Comfort and Peace to our hearts. Much Love to Lil' Nely, and the rest of the family...
~~Brenda~~

I know it took me awhile to get to this point, but I could not find the words to say...I still don't know what to say! This is a hard pillk to swallow, especially when it is so unexpected... I pray for the family every night, that the Lord will continue to stregnthen, give you comfort, and be with you in your time of grief. We lost a person that was dear to many...she was a beautiful person, w/a beautiful smile, spirit, and soul! There will never be another like her!! It's hard to believe and it still seems so unreal...

To Connie and Hazel and the Champion/Mack Families,
May the love of God surrounds all of you during this time. I remember yolanda from the earlier days of her young life, when she would come to visit her family on James Island and her aunties would bring her to the baseball/softball games on Saturdays and Sundays. So when I learned of her passing, this is what flashback to me. From that beautiful smile from the picture selected shows how she grew up to be a beautiful young lady and from the entries of others shows how well rounded she was. I know Landa will be missed by all who knew her, but know that she will live on as long as you keep her memories in your minds and hearts. May God Bless all of you in the healing days ahead.
Love,

I love you Londa! R.I.P i think about you all the time and cry.
Love,
Your cousin Niah
