To my sweet big sister

I am going to miss the talks and the knowledge you shared with me over my life. I will never forget anything you taught me. All the wisdom and love that you have shared with me. I am so grateful, I couldn't have asked for a better big sister. And I love you and BUH BYE FOR NOW❀️😘πŸ₯°

Anne Jones-LaQuins

Mama PJ, You were my very first second mother. From the moment Nyika and I became friends and then best friends, you loved me like one of your own β€” covering us in protection, warmth, and that special kind of love only you could give. Even after time passed and distance came with us all moving from Athens, I still felt your love and presence. That kind of love doesn't fade β€” it lingers, it holds, it comforts. I only hope you truly know how deeply you are endeared and loved. You had a gift for making everyone feel special, accepted, and seen. Your kindness, your sweet spirit, and your unconditional love were unmatched. When our circle of two grew to three and Crystal joined us, you just opened your arms even wider. You loved us all like we were yours β€” through all the crazy, fun times, the laughter, the mischief, and the memories that will stay with us forever. You were our safe place, our biggest cheerleader, and our constant light. Nyika is my first best friend β€” my forever sister β€” and Crystal became the sister we never knew we needed, all because you showed us what it meant to love big and without limits. I'm praying for Dez, for Kendall, for Nyika, and for all your family β€” that they feel your love wrapped around them every single day and find peace in the beautiful life you lived and the love you gave. Thank you for everything, Mama PJ. Your love is woven into our stories, into who we are, and you will always, always be with us.

"Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails." – 1 Corinthians 13:7-8

See you after-while, With all my love, Shana Crawford

My heart goes out to my extended family, Paula was a sister to me for as long as I remember. I have known her for over 60 years and she has always been the same. When I needed a well deserved break from caring for my Mom Paula came to my house and stayed that's the kind of trust I had in her. I will miss the phone calls and texts but thank God she left memories I will cherish until I see her again. My Sister rest in God's loving arms

Dianne & Zonnie Turnet

I was deeply saddened to learn of Paula's passing. From our first meeting, I felt her warmth and genuine love in the way she spoke, the way she cared, and the way she made me feel. With every greeting, she always shared kind words, a warm smile, and a hug. I will always remember her with love and deep respect for the beautiful person she was. Sending my heartfelt condolences to the family during this difficult time.

Nyika, I've been praying for you and your family daily. May the faith that your Mom helped you to realize be the ground that you guys stand on. Sending you love.

Tan Taylor

Mom, thank you for being the best mother and grandmother we could have asked God for. He knew just what we needed in a mom and grandmother. You loved us with your whole being and made us each feel so special. You always made time and would drop anything to give us your full attention. Growing up, I knew my mama loved me. You always told me I was beautiful, smart, and brilliant. I know you were a bit biased :). Out of all the gifts you gave to me, my most precious one is the introduction to Jesus. Thank you for teaching me scripture and making sure I knew Jesus was our Lord and Savior. You were always sold out for the Lord, even when you were young. No matter what was happening in our lives, you never ran from your Savior. I also thank you for giving me the gift of joy and laughter. Besides being so beautiful and talented, you knew how to enjoy yourself! You were fearless and generous and your joy was infectious. People left you feeling much better than when they came. I will miss you more than one can imagine but I know where you are, I will join you one day - and I'm glad about it! I love you, Mom. Thanks for loving me first.

Your First Born Gift, Nyika

Nyika Parrott

Paula was like a sister to me. Living across the street from each other, growing up together, playing together, taking our first trip to the Caribbean Island together, the prayers that we shared and the scriptures she would send me to read. RIH my friend, you will truly be missed. Sending my condolences to her kids and the family Judiffe CAROLYN Fulton

Mama, I never thought for a moment I would be saying goodbye to you this soon. I want to thank you for every wonderful memory and for loving me like I was your very own. You were always there when we needed you. From a honey-sweet greeting anytime Shana and I visited to weaving in scripture in the middle of any sentence, we felt loved and blessed to be in your presence. Honestly, there are not enough words to express just how much you mean to us. I will always hold you in my heart, and I find strength in knowing this is only temporary and we will see you again. I love you.

Crystal Gabay-Nurse

Nyika, Desi and Kendall,

Thank you sooooo much for sharing your mom/grandmother with me. She was indeed a joy to know. I will miss our conversations, het text messages and especially her emojis (πŸ˜€). She had a heart of gold. She will definitely be missed beyond measure.

Praying that God gives you comfort and strength during this difficult time. Love you

Alice swain shell

PJ, you were the first to do so many things in life. For instance, you were the first to move from Union Point to the "Big city of Athens", you were 1 of 3 kids who were the first to integrate a segregated school and you were the first to offer "Miracles on Wheels" which was your Mobile Hair Salon. Now you are the first of your siblings to GRADUATE LIFE and to hear the Creator say "Well done my good and faithful servant." P, you have been more than a sister to me. You were a friend, an advisor, a prayer partner and most importantly, a second Mother to me. Thank you for all of the Life Lessons that you shared. You have successfully completed your mission of spreading love unconditionally. We shall all miss hearing you say "I LOVE YOU"

Love Always, Your Baby Sister

Tammy Jones
