To my Dad,
The greatest love I’ve ever known! There aren’t enough words to describe how much you mean to me. My best friend, unconditional anchor, light in the darkness and diary. I couldn’t have been blessed with a better dad in this lifetime. I am so grateful for your life and honored to be apart of your life’s journey. There isn’t a single day that goes by that I don’t think of you and miss you. I know you are with me now and always. My heart hurts with the amount of love I have for you. We have a million memories that will surely exceed this lifetime. I love you and I will always be one of your biggest unconditional supporters. I know your heart and you know mine. We will always be one! I will forever be your baby girl. I love you beyond this world. Thank you for everything, your life’s testimony is a job well done. I love you and I’m so thankful for your heart and for your fight. This is forever, I have you and I have our family!
To Terry & Johnny and family and to Jermel's wife Kelly and family I send my deepest sympathy to all of you. I saw the services on line and everyone spoke so highly of Jermel. He was very well loved. I will always remember the times I had with Jermel from the time he was little when Karen brought him down South to Charleston and the times I saw him in NY and the time he and his family came over to my place in Charleston when they where here I believe for Thanksgiving and his Babygirl(may she continue to RIP) was watching me put up my Christmas. We all have fond memories of you Jermel and you will forever be in our hearts. May God continue to comfort you all (my family). I love you and may God be with you.
Love always
Colletta
Jermel was a kind and generous man, he gave me one of my first jobs as a very young man, at Blockbuster on 125th street many years ago. I got my start in retail management because of him. I have many good memories of working with him and the old Blockbuster crew. Thanks for taking a chance on a young man from Harlem Mel. Rest in piece.
Sweet Jermel - always with such a big smile and warm hug. Friends in high school and whenever we saw each other later in life, we always agreed that it wouldn't matter how much time had passed, we would always be connected. Too much time HAD past since I last saw him, but he will always be remembered by me and our Westtown friends. xx
Jermel was a dear friend. As a young man, he took me under his wing. He was a leader, kind, generous and sophisticated. Gone way too soon. May my brotha Jermel rest in eternal peace.
I am so sorry for this for the whole family. Brandon, Jamel and I grew up on Ogden avenue as childhood friends. We are big Yankee fans, me and Janelle would always talk about the Yankees. I am going to miss talking to him and sharing things about our team. Jamel, Brandon and Bradley were like brothers I never had. Ms. Terry I wish I could be there but you and the family are in my thoughts.
My Condolences to out to Jermel and the whole Valderhorst Family. Sad to see another good brother gone to soon. Always in my thoughts

Mel and Brad, brothers from another mother. They both are no longer with us. I truly miss my friend Mel. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Vanderhorst family in this time of sorrow. Please take solace in the fact that I’m sure, he has found Brad and they are “chopping it up”
