I never said it would be easy,
I only said it would be WORTH IT.
Til this day I still can't believe that she's gone. Janelle has inspired me in so many ways possible & she was one the most greatest examples out there. If there was ever a time I needed a laugh or some kind of comfort, Janelle was ALWAYS there. & that is the one thing that I will truly miss about her. No matter what the problem or trouble was, or how hard or easy it was, or how expensive or cheap it was, her response was alway's, "It's no problem." :)
For the past 3 & a half yrs that I've known Nelle, not only was she a sister to my husband & I, but she was also a Mother. Speaking of Mother, lol! I remember the first time I met Nelle. :) it was my first time meeting Siah's family & oh how NERVOUS I was. Haha! Siah had left his house to meet up with me. & being "Siah", of course he didn't tell anyone that he was leaving. So, he meets up with me & takes me back to his house. I walk upstairs & Siah says, "Everybody! This is Lola." So he goes around the room introducing me to everyone, & Nelle cuts him off & says, "WHERE THE HECK DID YOU GO!?" Like whoa! Can I at least get a "HI" first before you start yelling at him? Lol! It was from then that I realized not only do I have to deal with impressing his mom, but I have to deal with impressing his sister, Janelle aka second "MOM" as well. :) lol!
Nelle has been like a Mother to every single one of her siblings. Especially Jaz. Where ever Nelle was, you could always find Jaz. The way these 2 acted amongst each other just made me wish I had a sister even more. They were pretty much inseperable. It was ALWAYS Nelle, Ron & Jazmyn. Everywhere
Nelle & Ron went, Jazmyn would be right along side them. Everytime we would have family get togethers, these 3 were the main people I stayed away from. Haha! You wouldn't ever wanna be left alone with these 3 clowns! All they would do is just clown on you until you leave their sight. Yeah, NOT COOL! lol!
This past year was the MOST I've ever spent with Nelle. Whether it was just sitting at home bored out of our minds, painting our nails, clowing on each other, playing ball, ("PLAYING BALL") lol, eating out, or just about anything. This past year was THE MOST time I've ever spent with her. It was mainly Nelle & Ron who was always getting the family together to hang out. There was NEVER a boring time with these 2. Nelle & Ron were most definitely THE LIFE at the party. If it wasn't Nelle, it was Ron. If it wasn't Ron, it was Nelle, well, SOMETIMES. She gets all her jokes from Ron so all of her jokes were already played out. Hahaha! JK! Words cannot express how much I miss this girl! There is not a day that goes by where I don't think of her. I know that with the Plan of Salvation that the Lord has blessed us with, that we WILL see Nelle again. I know that she is in Heaven looking down & smiling at each & everyone of us. Although she's gone, but she will FOREVER be in my heart.
I love you Nelle! I promise that I won't let Ariez, Jordyn & Jaelah grow up without knowing how much of a loving aunty you were to each of them. I will make sure that they remember every little piece of you & love you for the kind of aunt you were. I know that you will always be with them not only in spirit, but in their hearts. They will FOREVER carry their Aunty Janelle in their hearts in whatever they do. I PROMISE!
God saw that you were in pain when a cure was not to be,
So he quickly wrapped his arms around you and whispered, "COME TO ME."
With tearful eyes we watched you, and watched you slip away,
Although we love you dearly, we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
HE ONLY TAKES THE BEST.
