To the entire Jonson Family, I can’t imagine what you are going through, so I won’t say I understand. Words can’t express the sadness that I feel having learned of my dear friends passing. I am truly sorry that I could not be there with you during this time of bereavement but you are in my thoughts and prayers as ALWAYS. Damone and I were such good friends. Neither distance nor time could change that. We would talk ever blue moon but never ended the call without saying I love you. I feel like this is just a bad dream and I will wake up and have my friend back. Miss Jessie, Gail, be strong, D would not have it any other way. Love to the rest of the Family. I hope to see you all soon.
Love, Carlisa Baker-Washington

Just as you would insist, life does go on and I'm living it to the fullest but know that I miss you so much Mone. You are forever in my heart. Thank you for so many laughs. May your rest be peaceful and I hope to see you again, rejoicing, in that sweet by and by.
