Special Tributes to Mom

Dear Mom, you are the strongest woman ever. No woman can take your place. You gave everyone hope and had a great spirit. You loved us unconditionally and never gave up on us. We will forever love you, TJ.

My mom is a believer, a strong faithful woman of God who’s beauty shined inside and out . Her family meant the most to her, she taught us how to be independent and strong, she taught us togetherness but most importantly she taught us the word of God. My mom is loving and caring. She always handles business no matter what . My mom never misses a day , she always checks in to tell me how much she misses me or just to see what I’m doing. She’s the strongest woman I know and I know she’s proud of me. If I could be half the woman she is I’d be complete – Tayjah

My mom is one of the strongest and beautiful women I know. If you know her like I do, you know that if you need her she’s there no questions asked. She always makes sure whatever she can do for others and herself that she gets it done and that’s for sure one of the things I admire about her. I really appreciate everything you’ve done for me and I love you. – Te’Sean

I will hold you in my heart until I can hold you in Heaven-Martin

Mom I love you and miss you love you always- Dalayah

Very sorry for your loss. Although I never had a chance to meet Chayla, in my short time knowing Te’Sean, it is apparent what a wonderful lady she was based on the son she raised. The love the Marion Harding family has for the Jefferson family speaks volumes about Chayla and the rest of the Jeffersons.
