WHAT DONT KILL YOU ONLY MAKE YOU STRONG

A Conversation between Jarrelle and Claudette

Claudette-Son I wish we had more time to share more birthdays and Christmas. I have in empty place in my heart. Rell I can not stare into your handsome face. There’s not a morning I don’t cry missing you.

Jarrelle- Moma I have seen you shed your tears I have watched you struggles throughout the years. Don’t you know I have always been there for Christmas and birthdays we did get to share? The good Lord sent me in many ways. When the alarm clock goes off or when your dolls fall. Momma in your heart you know this true.

Claudette- yes Rell I know it’s true I have felt you in many ways but I still feel cheated losing you at the age 17. That’s not wrong of me.

Jarrelle- Claudette Calhoun you are my momma whom I love and adore. I shall stand by your side forever. As you fight depression from taking your strength. My hands will hold you in place. All you need to do is think of that song and me the good lord place in your heart. Just as you count on your special three John, Kita, and Angel you can always close your eyes and think of me. I will come close and hold you. My sprit, my heart, my strength live on. Just as you mom I live on inside of you, smile, I love you.

Claudette- Rell I love you too son more then you love your blue car. Jarrelle I love you more.

Jarrelle was a very fun and loving child since the day he was born. He was our life.  He was always smiling and laughing and joking around. He was a joy to everyone he met and he will forever be remembered for that. He was such a loving person, he would give you the shirt off his back if you needed it.  And on July 17 Th., 2004 he was taken away from us in a tragic accident at the beach. The love of his life was his car and his family we will forever remember that day.  Rell had a spirit unlike any other person you would meet. He was happy with his life, he worked hard and did the things that he needed to do while having fun. He will forever be greatly missed in this life.

Jarrelle

I had the honor to know Rell for all of his short 17 years on this earth.  Rell was and will always be my brother from another mother.  He was my Rell and I was his Big Sis!

Rell and I had a lot of good times.  Just seeing him sitting outside on his porch waiting for me to arrive in Richmond, to the time we sent bringing in the new years.  To most Rell was shy and quiet, but when me, Rell, Angel, Aunt Claw, John, Karey, Kay, and Que, were together during new years, oh my goodness.  It’s weird but one of my fondest memories of Rell was when I graduated from ODU.  Rell was suppose to come to my graduation with Aunt Claw, but Aunt Claw took ill and was not able to come.  When I was getting ready to graduate he called me and asked me for directions, because he had recently got his car and was going to drive down by himself.  Although, I was touched by his desire to see his Big Sis graduate, I knew I couldn’t let him hit the road, by himself.  Rell and I stayed on the phone for about 30min, which the whole time I was trying to convince him not to try to drive to see me graduate.  That day I knew my brother was hurt, but I eased his pain because I got my Uncle Billy to call him when my name was called, so that he could hear.

Jarrelle, to me was what family should be.  He was so caring, loving and would do anything for his family. Jarrelle had a heart of gold.    Rell would not hurt a soul, but he was a protector.

It’s crazy because Rell always called you and after you answered the phone, the first thing he would say was, “What are you doing.”

There are no words that could describe what I love about Rell.  He was my friend, my cousin, my brother and so much more.  I loved the way he would make you feel special.  He called me almost everyday, just to say hello and to see how I was doing. I also loved how he would go out of his way to get his family to be together.

If I had to use one word to describe Rell, I would have to say “Loving”.

If I could have one more conversation with Rell, I first cuss him out because he knew he was suppose to be here to help me move back to Richmond.  But, really I would just let him know that he is one of my heroes and that I wish I was able to love so deep like he does.  I would tell him that I love him and I wish he was here to celebrate John’s, Meka’s and my wedding.  I would let him know that his spirit was embedded into Q and K because they are so much like him.  I would ask him to continue to protect our family. Lastly, I would tell him that I love him.  It’s crazy because although our family is so tight and we all know that we love each other, I don’t think we say it enough.  I really regret not telling my brother, how much a love him.
