Tish, sister I love you and I'm continuously praying for your strength. Lean on God for your understanding and healing. Everyday won't be good and neither will it be bad but on those bad days lift your eyes unto the hills, From whence cometh your help. Dee, niece I love you and I'm praying for you as well. To the rest of Parris family and friends, continue to pray and know that the Lord is with you. I love y'all.

Dear Parris,

Your life was such a beautiful one, though I only saw you briefly; I instantly knew you were family when I met you. Your kind soul is what makes this lost so hard. It hurts knowing that you didn't get to live the life you should have here on Earth. But, I know deep down that you will be able to live it fully and peacefully in Heaven.

My little cousin... I love you. You will be missed... until next time. Get ya rest...

Parris, my daughter Angel's twin. I think about last November just texting you out of the blue while sitting in Church Service to see if you could go to Texas to help celebrate her birthday. You didn't hesitate to say YES. Seeing you and meeting Rinda at the Dog show was and is so memorable.

July 31, 2011, your Grandma Connie changed her physical address to Heavens Gate. I know you have already stopped by and when she opened the door, your beautiful smiled warmed her heart. Spend quality time with her...I Love You

Until Aunt Angie see you again,

Prayers, Aunt DeeDee

I would have never imaged that a week before this tragic incident while during a Duo call with my niece and great niece, that it would be my last interaction. My heart is heavy for my Granddaughter Trish (Floubie) and all family members.

With Love...and Prayers Aways Grandma...Clara Fleming

A beautiful soul she was that smile would light up a room may you rest and smile down on your loved ones prayers sent to the family

I remember Parrish as a student in the JROTC program. She always had a smile and a sense of jokingly when I saw her it is with great regret a life so beautiful ended so soon. My prayers and thoughts are with the family and community on their loss.
