You looked at me and saw what I never could see. You made me be more than I thought I could ever be. And when I needed a friend you were always there. To lift me up, to make me strong. You're not gone. It's because of you I knew how it felt to be loved. You made me feel beautiful cause you believed I was. And I will never forget how you touched my life. You made me feel like I belonged. You'll live on. You're my life. You'll be in my life. You'll be a part of me. I'll just think of you and you'll be. You're still here with me all the time. You're still here when I close my eyes. I still see you, I still feel you and we'll never be apart. You're still here, still here in my heart.....Love you mom

Mommy, mommy, mommy, why did you have to leave me? I don't know what else to say, all I do is cry. I know you told not to but that's all left there to do. I screamed at the top of my lungs this morning just thinking of you. I try to think positive, but the loss and emptiness is still there.

Mommy dearest, words alone would do no justice in expressing the loss I am feeling. I knew what to expect, I knew it was coming but now that it has happened I am in utter disbelief. I do not want to accept the fact that my mother is no longer here with me. I can no longer call and say "Mommy, wa bush to use for the flu?" or "Mommy, how to mek de mix up ting tha you use to put on de children when dey no feel good?". No longer can I come by and say "Mommy, plz roll some dumplins for me." just to hear you say "I tired show you how to de dem, young lady when you gon learn!" I think about you everyday. I try not to cry only because you told me not to. I know you are free, you are out of your suffering but it still hurts that you are not here with me. I will try to be strong and move on but you will always be a part of me and my children. May your soul rest in eternal peace in the arms of Jesus. I love you mommy...

To Mario, D'Angelo, Brenda, and Stachio, I know the pain you are feeling now, it is not easy but through faith, prayers, love and support from one another it will get easier you need each now more than you think or know. My deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences to you all and stay strong and together, God Bless.

For the short time I've known you, I loved you like a mother.You have always been there for me.whether I made bad or good decisions.I could talk to you about anything and you were all ears.You always had a story to tell that would just make me lol.You accepted my son,Kahvonte' but you prefer calling him Kahmari. even before he was born,that I greatly appreciate.You were there at the hospital when he was born & when he was circumcised.You taught how to show one on his hand,how to give a hi five,how to do the boo & how to seeps up the girls (as u would say) in one day,his fist birthday.You also named him Makahl,only God knows I hate that name..sms.When I called you the first thing you asked was how me boy a do or wha bad me boy do?F he was mischievous u would say he's a Williams,he can't help...sms. Thanks for everything you've done for me and mostly being the granny you were to my son.I will miss you,please watch over him dearly and may you soul rest peacefully in heaven

I am saddened by the passing of Jay. As a young boy growing up in Sandy Point, I always respected and admired her. Our beloved town of Sandy Point was made a better community because of the life of Jay. My entire family and I extend our condolences to Jay's children and the rest of the family.

Jay, you were a beacon in your family and you will be sorely missed. I will always remember your beautiful smile and laugh and the way you treated me as if I was one of your own daughters. Paulie, Gela, Elrose and the rest of the family I wish I was there to give you big hugs of love and support. I hope you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers all the way from Texas. Jay is reunited with Neelia - I can see them now laughing and holding their bellies - goodbye our sweet Jay, and may a flight of Angels sing thee to they rest.

Its sad that such a special person has left the lives of those who loves her.... I dont no where to begin from the very first time i met Jay i fell inlove with her. She was a calm loving person always smiling which also gives u a reason to smile when she does.... I will miss her...May your soul rest in erternal peace. Love Always, Irma

Stachio, your colleagues in the field are praying for you and your family to find strength at this time. It is during times such as these that family and friends can help to support and encourage you and your family while you cope with your loss. We know you loved your mother dearly, and we hope that you find comfort in knowing that she loved you dearly as well. J. Bryan, General Secretary.

To all of J's children, especially Stachio, Brenda, Mario and D'Angelo - I know nothing I say can ease the pain you feel right now but I know that your Mom is in a better place away from all the pain. Do make sure that you honour her wishes and give your hearts to the Lord so that you will re-unite with her again. Sent with sincere sympathy. From myself and family

"SAME TIME SAME PLACE " were the words we greeted each other with over the years,you were such a sweet and loving person no wonder on tuesday 8th march as the lord walked through his garden and looked at the row of J's he said look at the beautiful seet sencted Jasmine and he picked you ,and has placed you in his bosom . RIP MY DEAR UNTIL WE MEET AROUND GOD'S THRONE. Merle

J was a real loving person, even when she was down, she always kept a smile and encouraged each to keep moving forward. I remember when she sewed for me and shopped for me over seas, she always looked out for me, just being in her presence gave a sense of joy. Rest in eternal peace J, u;ll surely be missed...

Jay may your soul rest in peace, i do hope that your family will find a way to heel the pain at this moment, i remember when i was going s.p.h.s., and coming to your home at lunch time with brenda you always had something on the table for us, you gave when there was not plenty, but there is one thing, u always maintain, what ever i give to you all make it do, and the smile and jokes that you always had for all of brenda friends. We will surely be miss.

JAY MISSING U IS JUST THE BEGINING. A MOTHER GOD MOTHER AND FRIEND U WRE 2 ME. I WILL MISS U DEARLY.U ALWAYS MADE ME LAUGH NO MATTER WHAT. U HAVE NOW GON 2 A BETTER PLACE. REST IN PEACE(R.I.P)

jay was a second mother to me always happy and cheerful.Always caring and sharing there wasnt anything that was too good for her to share i will always remember jay love u forever jay rest in peace .

Jay and I first became acquainted when her daughter, Brenda was in my 6th grade class. That acquaintance was renewed years later during my Principalship at SPHS. She was one of those parents who supported my work unconditionally. On no occasion when I had to discipline any of her children, did I ever feel that she was not appreciative of my efforts. This caused her to stand out in my mind as a remarkable parent. Jay attended parent teachers' meetings, Sports Days and other school events regularly. Her children contributed to the advancement of SPHS in terms of academics and athletics. To her children, grand children, her brothers and her sisters and the host of other relatives, I offer my heartfelt condolences. To Brenda, Stachio, Mario, D'Angelo and others, you are all very much in my thoughts. May her blessed soul rest in eternal peace!

I have known Jay for so long, always smiling and joking. To Brenda and family my deepest condolences.A ray of sunshine is no more on this side. I know that it is difficult but God always know best.

I know this lady. I remember her working at Jack Tar when I played music there as a member of the Modern Image band, in the early 1990s. Quiet, easy-going lady who went about her business in a proper way. My condolences to her husband who I remember as well, as Security Officer at Jack Tar as well. Rest In Peace and my God bless and keep those who are left to mourn.

To:- The Williiams family. Wishing you God's strength and support in this time of your bereavement. Remember God takes the one he loves Best. Be comforted. From Joseph Wyatt & Family and the staff members of Quick Bargain.

I will definitely miss chatting with you at mornings when you took your walk. You were a very easy person to get along with and I will cherish the moments we shared discussing life and the words of encouragement you always gave me. To Brenda and the others - your mother loved you guys....she was always there for you and I am happy that in the end, she was comforted by your support and love. My deepest sympathies....hang in there guys. Jay, you will be missed!!!

My neighbor, I just learned of your passing yesterday 3/11/2011... My condolences goes out to your family... your memories live on...I know that you are in better place and I hope and pray that your children will stay strong in this time of loosing such a wonderful person with such a big heart. Gone but not forgotten... RIP Jay....

When i heard of you being sick i was surprise cause u never look that way and then wen i heard of your death i was shock and couldnt even catch myself. You were a nice lady jay and i would always remember you no matter wat. To the family god is in the midst of everything, tust him and he will take care of you.You are with your maker now JAY. Rest in eternal peace.

This is the smile I remember when I think of Jay. A beautiful flower that was once blooming and will continue to bloom with love, through your kids, grandkids and family. To Stachio, D’An , Mario, Paulie and the rest of the family my deepest sympathy. She is surely resting in peace. God Bless

My condolences to Brenda and all the others left to mourn. Jay will always be remembered for her kindness and fun loving ways. A smile, a joke was never far away whenever she was around. I know you guys are at a loss because she is no longer among you, but know she is in a better place watching over you guys. Please take comfort in knowing that. Blessings and guidance.

Your early departure is the world's loss but heaven has gained another angel. You will never be forgotten and your greatness lives on through your children. Rest in Peace in the arms of our God. From Elvis and family.

Brenda, my thoughts and prayers go out to you and your wonderful family during this difficult time. After all these years I still remember your mother and how great she was to her children. Again my deepest sympathy. From my family to yours. My God bless and keep you always. Love Leah Joseph and Family in NYC

My deepest sympathy to the family.she was a really kind and caring person, I knew her a long time, she did some sewing for me and my child, she was never too busy to assist, even when i took something and wanted it done right away, she always took time out from her housework to assist me. May her soul rest in eternal peace. She loved her family dearly.

Mommy words alone cannot express the pain and emptiness I feel today, but knowing you are in heaven give me comfort. I miss you so much and will always cherish the memories we share, you always made me feel so special when you called me queen Brenda and I will surely miss hearing that but I will remain your queen for life, you are truly the greatest mother in the world, you have taught me so much and I intend to pass on your teachings to my children. Rest In eternal peace my dear dear mother I love you. Your Queen Brenda

When those we love have left this earth, we still can feel them near. We'll see a picture, hear a song and it's just like they are here. And when we call upon our faith, when we believe and trust, we know the ones we care about are always close to us. May you and your family find strength and comfort in the Lord.

You are the greatest MOM that ever walked this earth. Your kindness has blessed everyone you came into contact with. Your life has been an example and blessing to all of your children and loved ones. You taught me well Mom. You taught me never to give up and always think positive, be kind to people and respect authority. I have learned well. I will continue to make you proud. I love you mom.... May your soul rest in eternal peace.
