I’m one of Ma’Khia’s former middle school teachers. Ma’Khia was such a pleasure to work with. She was a very appreciative student, who enjoyed receiving one to one attention. Her presence and sweat personality lit up any room she entered. I remember Ma’Khia as someone who really enjoyed learning and being willing to help others in any way she could. Ma’Khia was such a sweat heart, who always kept a smile on her face. She will definitely be missed! My deepest condolences to the Bryant family. May the Lord of all grace comfort and strengthen the Bryant family with a tangible touch of his love and presence in your time of bereavement.
