In Loving Memory©

Resolution in Loving Memory of Our Beloved Classmate Keyonna Ro'Shelle Newsome Allums

Today, we gather to share the love in our hearts for the memory of our very own whose short time on Earth was overwhelmingly full of love and made such a spiritual impact on us all. God, in his perfect and infinite wisdom, has seen fit to call our beautiful Keyonna to heavens gain as His reward.

"Finding thanks in Thanksgiving or the good in goodbye 

Because God loved you best, we will not question why.

In life we loved you dearly, 

in death we'll do the same.

We're grateful to have known

The Lord was in your heart the day he called your name. 

It broke our hearts to lose you,

But you did not go alone.

A part of us went with you

The day God called you home.

You left us beautiful memories,

Your bright smile remain our guide,

And though you're absent from what we see

You're right where you want to be

Until we meet again beautiful friend."

Whereas, Matthew 25:14 begins “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."

Therefore be it resolved, that we, the Class of 1999, embrace the family to show our support and love on this day, December 6, 2014 because in light of the passing of our beloved classmate, we have a bond that will connect us for the rest of our lives. We cannot replace Keyonna, but she will remain in our hearts.
