"Rona and Michael, Despite the emotional and, yes, physical pain so many of us feel over the death of beautiful Alyssa, it's impossible for us to imagine how deep your pain is. As loving parents we hurt so badly when our child is ill or have problems of any sort, so to lose one in death is extremely difficult and I cant express enough how very sorry I am that this happened to you. Alyssa was a beautiful child in every way. Always with a ready smile unless she was VERY tired. Rona, I remember so clearly when just a few weeks earlier. you , Curdell and Romaine brought her along with her older little cousins to spend the evening with mama and I. It was such a pleasure to see her walking although she was so small. We had a laugh when a bag she was carrying fell; she picked it up nice an easy and continued walking as if walking was something she had been doing for a very long time :). I miss my little cousin very much. It was indeed a privilege to have known her and sorry she had to die so soon!!! We look forward to seeing Alyssa again soon, when Jehovah fulfills his promise to bring her back to life, free of all sickness and with the hope of living forever ( John 5: 28 & 29 and Acts 24: 15). Meantime I pray that Jehovah give you the strength to bear the pain. I love you! Aunt Mae"

"Rona, I am so blessed and happy to say that I was able to meet baby Alyssa at Keishae's baby shower. I held her and did not want to let her go. She was so humble and sweet. Better yet, too sweet for this world that God called for his Angel. Rona, I am so sorry for your lost and pray that God will watch over you and your family. I love you."

"To Rona, It is so difficult to find the words to share my sympathy. I never got to meet Ladybug, but she was clearly a very special child. She persevered through enormous challenges, coming through to surprise us all so many times. I know she got that strength and spirit from both of you. I pray that you find some of that strength to make it through this horrible time. My thoughts and prayers are with you constantly. Love always Shawn and Family"

"Dear Rona, your little Alyssa is not gone forever she is resting, No one ever sought the Father and found He was not there, and no burden is too heavy to be lightened by a prayer, no problem is too intricate and no sorrow that we face is too deep and devastating to be softened by His grace, no trials and tribulations are beyond what we can bear if we share them with our Father as we talk to Him in prayer. Lots of Love baby."

"Rona, I am so sorry for your loss. Please allow Jehovah to be your refuge in this time. Jehovah cares for you and knows how you feel.. He can give you peace in your heart and mind if you reach out to him. Phillipians 4:6,7, tells us this. Please read it and continue to pray to him, whenever you feel the need. He is always there for us and does not sleep. So whatever time of day you can rely on him. You and your family are in my prayers. Hoping that the Peace of God will mold your thoughts for peace."

"No words can express the lost of my granddaughter. However, I'm grateful that God allowed her to be apart and in my life. Her pictures (that smile) could and would turn my worst moment into brightest and happiest day ever. Alyssa will always be in my thoughts, I will miss her deeply, her memories and knowing that she is safe will keep me moving forward. You will never be forgotten "I Love You Alyssa, alway and forever-Nana.""

"Rona your precious angel has been taken from you too soon. No heartache compares with the death of a small child, but when god calls little children to dwell with him above we sometimes cannot question the wisdom of his love. R.I.P Alyssa."
