Jada was such a great person. Always smiling & willing to do anything to help anyone. I hadn’t seen her in years but send my thoughts & prayers to all her family & friends. She will be missed.
Jada was such a nice person with a smile always on her face. I always spoke with her at the library. My thoughts and prayers are with her family…
I met Jada at Key Ridge in 6th grade, and she is a part of so many memories. We did band, choir, and theatre together. We loved and lost together. We got into some typical teenage mischief together. We cried together. But more than anything, we laughed together. That laugh is what I hear when I think of her. I’m praying for you all.
Rick, Laurie and family. I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
So sorry for your loss! I wish I could have come to the viewing but wasn’t in town! Prayers for your and the family!
So very sorry for your loss. Sending prayers for you all.
Jada will always be remembered by her sweet smile and sunny disposition. She was so sweet, prayers for her family and DJ
Jada, losing you is shockingly painful. There are so many memories with you, dear friend. Band. Choir. Flag Corp. Boyfriends. Valentines dinners. My wedding. You were such a joy to have in my life. I will cherish my memories of you for the rest of my lifetime. I love you and selfishly I want you here, but I know you’re dancing with the angels. Janice, DJ, and family, I pray for your peace.
I remember Jada at Key Ridge. So sorry for your loss.
Jada & I were blessed to meet at Key Ridge Elementary and go to school together throughout our entire career. We rode the bus together too. She was always a beautiful girl with a beautiful smile. Throughout the years she always greeted me with a smile. I cherish all of the happy memories at school, band & Young Life. After graduation, greetings became even more precious with hugs when we reconnected. I will miss you, my friend, but look forward to the day we meet again…
