Jammetta L. Washington

On Saturday, October 18, 2014 our precious angel, Ms. Jammetta Linette Washington, was called home. She was born December 27, 1977 in Saginaw, MI to Debra (Washington) McKenzie and James Taylor. She was a loving daughter, sister, aunt, niece and cousin. Like her father, she was very artistic and even after his passing, she longed to dance with her father again. Jammetta enjoyed long shopping days with her mom. Just the two of them being together brought her so much joy. She enjoyed drawing, decorating, cooking and watching basketball. She was the “Big Little Sister” who loved the attention and adoration from her sisters. She adored her nieces, nephews and God-children. Her family was most important in her life and they meant the world to her. Jammetta saw a glimpse of heaven and the Lord called her home. Jammetta leaves to cherish her memory her mother, Debra (Washington) McKenzie; sisters, Tammie (John) Tribble and Rhonda Washington; God-parents, Nadine Harrison, Gloria Wilson, Alonzo Taylor and Jerry Washington; God-sisters, Trishina Wilson, Jamie George and Toni Carroll; God-brothers, Greg Genwright, Clem Washington and Larry George; nieces, Sierra, Debra, Teddy, Kaitlin and Sidney; nephews, Edrick Jr., Robert and John Mark; great-niece, E’Moni; aunts, Gloria Wilson, Mary Thomas, Priscilla (Percy) Curry, Lois Washington, Nadine Harrison, Gloria Dixon and Quita McGhee; uncles, Obie (Mary) Washington, Jr., Eugene Washington, Jerry Washington, Alonzo (Barbara) Taylor, Jr. and Joseph (Lois) Williams; cousins, Brian, Lance, Matt, Ali, Jay, Chris, Jammie, Terri, Jabar, Leslie, Gertis and Carmen; brother-in-law, John Tribble; and many other relatives and friends, including special friends, Tiffany, Iisha, Cholbi, Chyna and Robin.
