I am so sorry to hear of the passing of TJ. He was an amazing, charismatic, loving, funny, caring person that I was lucky to meet over 20 years ago. We met through a friend, and I am so grateful we did. A few years later, I was so lucky to have many fun nights together with him as when we lived across the hall in our apartments. My deepest condolences to all of the family and everyone that knew TJ during this difficult time. May he rest peacefully.
Like many of us, my heart is broken. I know you are no longer suffering but it doesn’t make “goodbye” any easier. I will forever remember all of our adventures, late nights, laughs, cries… you are so special, one of my closest friends. I know mom was waiting with open arms to greet you. Heaven doesn’t know how lucky they are. My deepest most sincere condolences to the Payne family during this difficult time. I will forever hold
You close in my heart poodle. Until we meet again, love you.
So sorry to hear about the passing of TJ my condolences goes out to each family member and anyone that knew TJ during this sad time.
My deepest condolences to James and all of TJ’s family! I met TJ in ON I was one of the many kids on Carberry Crescent that spent days and nights in a safe home that Cozette and James provided to all of TJs friends….. TJ was such a big personality so there were many friends. I cant believe I am speaking of him in the past tense. We were supposed to meet up on the island but we always think there will be a next time….. and as usual time is my regret! We shared many laughs and many tears! We have hugged it out and cussed it out but it didn’t matter. We were friends! the world is a lesser place without you in it! I love you!
So sorry to hear about the passing of TJ my deepest heartfelt condolences to each and everyone of you at this very sad time,may all your precious memories help you with days ahead.
Our sincere condolences to the family.
