R.I.P. My handsome cousin! Until we meet again!
Love Ya,
Cousin Zora

My sweet brother Rabon, your in my heart and I miss you and you smile and laughter. I am always missing about you and remembering you and all the things you said to make us all laugh. I know there is a reason you were taken away so soon but I always wish we had been given more time with you. You were one of Gods angels he wanted home. I feel your spirit is here with us and we will never forget you. I love you. Your sister Terri

Hey Daddy! 11 years have gone by so quickly, but there's not a day that goes by that I don't think about you. Star Wars is coming out, the new James Bond movie came out...these are the times we would've hung out and talked about how they were compared to the others. I just miss talking to you and being around you, able to talk to you about anything. I know you're better off where you are than being sick here, but I want you to know how much you're missed. I love you!!! Come see me sometimes. Love, Kima Jones

Wow! Where to begin. 11 years has come so quickly. I think of you often and miss you so much. There are many times I think of how differently your nephew Keith may have turned out had you still been here to "stay on him" so to speak. I am proud of him because he has however, stepped up to the plate is and taking care of business. I know that you are much better off and much happier where you are. And I know you are always watching. It would be nice if you came and talked to me again sometimes. I miss that. I miss being able to talk to you when I need advice on certain things. Know that you are always in my thoughts and in my heart. I love you Uncle Ray. Trae

If God would grant me just one wish, I'd wish too see your beautiful smile just one more time. The "Ray" of my sunshine you'll forever be. Unforgettable, my once Earthly Angel you'll forever remain.

Miss you--Belinda.

Happy Father's Day, Dad! Always thinking of you, but today if for fathers and you're no longer here. You were the best father a girl could have, so proud to say you were mine!

Love, Kima Jones

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAY".

Forever in my heart always.

"I still miss you.

Happy Birthday Daddy! You would be 61 today...times flies! I miss you everyday and think about you quite often. I just hope that you are in a better place and hope to to see you one day!

Love, Kima

Uncle Rabon - I can not believe so many years have passed. I think about you and miss you so much. So many great childhood memories. Teh best Uncle EVER! You were tough, but you also showed soooo much LOVE. Everyone has really grown up, its amazing ot me to see how each of your kids have your characteristics and/or mannerisms. You def live on through them. I love being around my cousins because I get to be reminded of you. It may be a laugh, a chuckle, they words that they say or the tone in which it is delivered. I know you are up there with Grandmom Beats and Billie looking down on all of us. Whever we gather I know you all are there with us. I always admired the relationship you and Kima had. You were not only a terric Uncle but the best Dad too!! Love you forever!!

10 years you've been gone. I think of you everyday ,, I miss the sound of your laughter, your beautiful smile and just seeing you, you have a boatload of grand kids and I know you would have had a great time just loving them up. Your kids have grown up and you would be so proud. They all have something that reminds me of you, your humor, your goofiness, your good looks and expressions. You definitely left your mark. You will always be missed and loved by me. With all my heart, I love you. Your sister, Terri

Gone , but not forgotten my dear friend!!!

Sensei you are missed by many but definitely not forgotten. Thank you for all the gifts you have given to your family, friends and students.

Hey Daddy! This day is usually a hard one but I'm getting better with it. I can't believe how time flies, it's been 10 years and I can remember this day like it was yesterday. I miss talking to you, hugging and kissing on you and just chillin with you. My life has definitely changed without you in it. I just hope that you are in a better place and I hope to see you when my time comes. I love you and miss you and always will. Thank you for everything, you were the best father a girl could ask for.

Love Always,

Kima Jones

Hey Rabon! Today is a day to remember all the beautiful memories we shared. I often tell our grandson Amir how wonderful you were and that you're looking down on him. You would be so proud of Kima and Rabon and would have lots of fun with your grandchildren. Say hello to all our loved ones up there with you. I know you must have everyone laughing and having a good time. We all miss you terribly and you will be in our hearts forever . Thanks for all the great memories and may you rest in peace!

Happy Father's Day, Daddy! You were the best father and I Thank God for letting me have you as my Dad for as long as you were here. I never thought that you, of all people, would go so early. I miss you every day. I hope wherever you are, you are happy because you always deserved it. I love you!!!

I knew you were an "Angel" when you came into my life. I'll forever be grateful that GOD allowed me to be one of many, too be graced by your friendship and unforgettable love. You're still and will always be missed, my dearest friend, the uncomparable love of my heart".

"Happy Birthday, my other Angel above"--Belinda.

You are sadly missed and favorably remembered. I miss that radiant smile, the jokes and the self generated cartoon photos. RIP my handsome cousin. Zora

Hey Unk,
I didn't get a chance to say my Happy Birthday's to you yesterday, so...HAPPY BIRTHDAY! I can't believe so much time has passed already. It seems like only yesterday. I still hear your voice in my head sometimes giving me advice. It's comforting to know that you, G'mom Billie and G'mom Beats are always there in spirit. Every once in a while I'll hear someone talking to me. :-). I miss you guys sooooo much. I was looking at the collage momi made of you and her and your brothers. It made me tear up, but it brought back nice memories. We will always have that. I know that you are watching over us, Thank you. Until we see each other again...I love you. Trae

Missing you every day. My sweetest brother and your presence is always felt. I miss your beautiful smile and know that you would be so proud of your children and so happy with all your grandkids that you never got to meet. I am sure you are looking down on them and smiling that smile that we all love and miss. Always, your sister, Terri

I think about you always, but today is your birthday so you're heavy on my mind. I just want you to know that I love and miss you very much, but I have nothing but good memories of you. I was just thinking how we would just chill and watch movies together and how I used to hug and kiss you all of the time. I really miss having you around, but I hope to see again. My brothers miss you too and Amir always asks me about you so I'm happy to share my stories with him. I love you, Daddy!

Love, Kima Jones

Happy Birthday Rabon. You were my first love and left me the most precious gifts, Takima and Rabon Jr. You will always have a special place in my heart. Rest in peace!

Happy Birthday Father!
You will always be in my thoughts.

Love, Osiris

My childhood friend with the million dollar smile and a personality that matched. Forever missed by family and friends

Hello Father,
This is Osiris, I'm 18 years old now. I'm all grown up. I miss u too!!
Wish u were here to see me now...I draw and write books!! I'm in high school and I someday would like to be an actor. I'll write again soon!!

I, along with other students, have been holding a memorial Aikido seminar every year since Sensei's passing. Honoring a great man.

Sensei Rabon was a huge influence on many people, for those who were his students and those who were not. He was a mentor, friend, father and instructor. He is greatly missed.

MISSING YOU SO MUCH AND WISHING YOU WERE STILL HERE. I LOVE YOU!!

YOUR SISTER TERRI
