Issuu

When Tomorrow starts without me, and I’m not there to see if the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me.

I wish so much you wouldn’t cry, the way you did today, while thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say.

I know how much you love me, as much as I love you, and each time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too.

When Tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart, for every time you think of me, I’m right there in your Heart.

From Lil Ken

Forever, for Always, and No Matter What

The first time we held you in our arms, we were overwhelmed with love. but suddenly, anxiety swept over us. How in the world were we going to raise you to be the man we knew you could be. Now, so many years later, we stand in awe before the extraordinary man you have become. We are so proud of you, and we will forever love you.

If Roses Grow In Heaven

If roses grow in Heaven Lord

Please pick a bunch for me. Place them in my Grandson’s arms and tell him they’re from me. Tell him that I love and miss him and when he turns to smile, Place a kiss upon his cheek and hold him for a while. Because remembering him is easy, I do it every day.

But there is an ache within my Heart that will never go away.

In Loving Memory of My Grandson

“CEO Big Poppa” Lakendrick Kizzie

From Grandmother, Shirley Cannon

Nephew

The first time I saw you, I felt such love inside For a pretty little baby boy Who hardly ever cried.

Soon, you were growing up, And I was proud of you, You always did your best in school And in everything you do.

Teenage days – they come and go. You survived them well. You had your dreams and set your goals. I knew you wouldn’t fail.

A nephew is a gift from God In a world that changes fast. You have a specialness inside of you That I know will always last.

Aunt Nay

Just a Little Letter

Just a little letter I just wanted to say Everything is fine And I got here ok I made it to Heaven

This place is really great Family came to meet me They were waiting by the gate I am young again No Illness and No Pain

Thing I could not do on Earth I can now do again

This place is beautiful I feel like I have come home

There is waterfalls and flowers And green field where I roam

Please don’t worry about me For I am in God’s care And when the time is right I will meet you there

Enjoy the life you have Cherish every single day Just wanted you to know That I got here ok.

“To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven…” Ecclesiastes 3:1 (KJV)

My time here on Earth

I was born on August 6, 1999, in Memphis, TN, to my proud parents, Lakendrick Cannon and Selena Kizzie.

I Made Jesus My Choice when I was 12 years old and joined New Stinson Community Church in Rossville, TN.

I Graduated from KIPP Memphis Collegiate High School in 2018. My passion for the love of football landed me a scholarship with Hinds Community College in Jackson, MS, to further my education.

I had many Interests... I was a serious sports fan, with my favorite teams being the Tennessee Titans and the Memphis Grizzlies. I was CEO of “Big Poppa Entertainment” with Lekelia Cannon as my COO. I was passionate about the love I had for my family, and friends.

I took MY rest and went home to God…. Ronald Lundy, stepdad; grandmother Evelyn D. Love; my great-grandparents Lee and Martha Cannon and Catherine Love; and my uncle, LyQuincy Cannon, all preceded me in death.

I Will Be Cherished by my loving parents, Lakendrick Cannon of Rossville, TN and Selena Kizzie Love of Memphis, TN; five brothers, Patrick Johnson, Jr., DeMarcus Kizzie, Darzavior Bledsoe, all of Memphis, TN, Cortavous Cannon and JaQuincy Cannon, of Rossville, TN; five sisters, Anya Kizzie and Hershadel Cannon, both of Memphis, TN; Lakendria Rosser and Lakenya Cannon, both of Rossville, TN, and Savannah Key of Jackson, MS; my special grandmother, Shirley Cannon of Memphis, TN; two grandfathers, Rickey Robinson of Rossville, TN, and Edward Kizzie of Memphis, TN; two favorite aunts, Tijuana Echols of Rossville, TN and Rosie Carlock of Memphis, TN; six uncles, Cortney Cannon, Edward (Carlisa) Love, Markese Love, Latavise (April) Love, Antonio Robinson and Robert Thomas all of Memphis, TN; one aunt, April Cannon of Arlington, TN; a special cousin, Jaleel Cannon of Olive Branch, MS, who was more like a brother; my special guys that were always there for me, Tabarious White of Rossville, TN and Noah Lane of Memphis, TN; and Dr. Krystal Martin of Memphis, TN, who was like a second mom, and a host of other aunts, uncles, cousins, niece, and friends.

I Will See You All on the other side when OUR Lord and Savior says the same... so long family and friends..........
