Words cannot express the feelings you have right now. My deepest condolences to you as you travel down this difficult road. She will be dearly missed.

It leaves me with great sorrow and a confusion that I cannot possibly begin to think of what to say. I feel that I could have known Jaie for much longer than I initially had and wish I was able to be around her more often. She was a beautiful young woman who could light a room with her smile. I leave my sincerest condolences in hopes that your family may move on from this tragic time
Rest in peace and may you find god Jaie.

I was not as close to Jaie as many were, but she was still one of my friends. We called her giggles because she was always so happy and smiling, and its so sad this happened I will always miss her and cherish her memory. If theres anything you need, you have it. -Hunter

Words cant even begin to express how sorry I am that your family is going through all this:( The first time I met her, I thought what a beautiful creation God had given Carl and Tyla! I know she was the apple of your eye! I had always remembered her as being “Daddy’s Girl” and she always will be! My deepest sympathy along with prayers are with your family at this time of sorrow….Nina

I do not know you, I am Tyler’s “mom”. I knew Jaie for only a couple of days when I saw her with Tyler the weekend before this happened. She seemed like a very happy, fun, cheerful young lady. I have never experienced this type of a loss but I can only imagine how you are feeling as I have 2 children of my own. God is with you in this very hard time. Rosie

We send our deepest sympathy for you and your family.. Our prayers are with each and everyone one of the family and friends. As god walks with you thru this tragedy, lets stop thinking of it as a tragedy now and think of it as a blessing. A blessing because now she is at peace with herself and now she would only want for you and everyone else to feel the same way, at peace. She would not want for you to cry, and mourn her, she would want for you to get on with your lives and remember her as she was before we lost her. SHE IS NOW YOUR GUARDIAN ANGLE. She will now watch over you as you need her too, she will protect you as you need her too., and is each and everyone one of our guardian angles..I love you all and pray to god that we can all get thru this. Especially for you Carl, Tasha, Wendy, Tyla and Family, and anyone I missed that may be very close to the family and friends.. I love you all and I know she did and does as well she just could not take the pain anymore and lets all be thankful that she is no longer in pain. GOD MAY YOU Please rest in peace JAE Cady, and please Carl, Tasha, and the rest of the family please may god support you on a daily basis and help you thru this very difficult time. WE all love you alot and hope you are doing ok. OUR thoughts and prayers are with you.

As I look into this mirror waiting for things to be clearer
I wish you were here,
to wipe away this tear
I sometimes think our life is a mess
But someday it will be the best
I awake in the morning just to find it so boring
As I go thru through the day to find something to say
I wish you were here to make it all so clear..
WE LOVE AND WILL MISS YOU JALYSSA MARIE CADY!!!!
As I watched you as a little girl grow into such a gorgeous, happy, bubbly young lady I pray you are now at peace. With love a friend.
