What a beautiful angel… I do not understand this world at all🥺no child should be bullied and feel the need to end their own life😭praying for her family🙏🏻
Sending love and prayers from Lubbock tx, this shouldn’t have happened! This beautiful bright young lady had her whole life ahead of her, instead she was belittled and bullied, the parents of the bullies need to be accountable for this as well, nobody should be bullied, now we have a grieving family because of those bullies, may you rest in paradise sweet girl 🥰
Oh sweet child you were taken so early. Jesus had a better home for you. May there be justice for who did this to you.
Sympathies for all. It is heartbreaking to wonder what this little girl was going through. God bless her soul. RIP beautiful girl.

Rip Beautiful , I am so sorry your life had to end at such a young age . I’m sorry that the negativity and racism of this country had to be the cause. In a way I’m glad you won’t be here to experience the dark times ahead and that god now has you in his arms away from this all because your absolutely deserved better . May you rest in peace and I will be keeping you and your family in my prayers .

I am so so sorry for your loss and I am so angry at this country for allowing this to happen. You will be in my prayers.
I did not know your daughter, but my heart and prayers go out to your family. Jocelynn will be remembered!!
Mi mas sentido pesame en la perdida de su hija Joselyn. 🥲 Cuando vide la nuevas y oiendo lo que decian que La Niña se Quito la vida por unos ninos que le estaban haciendo la vida pesada, me doy tanto tristeza y llore. Yo tengo hijos y no puedo comprender como podian unos ninos ser tan malos con ella. Lo siento mucho mucho y le pido a Diosito que su Nina hermosa tenga Justicia por lo que paso.
Que en Paz Descanse y Que le Brilla la Luz Perpetua. Oraciones para toda su familia. 😇🙏🏻✝️
Rest in peace, little one. You didn’t deserve what life handed you and I’m so sorry that the support system that was supposed to be there failed so miserably. I hope your family finds some comfort in knowing that for many of us, we will neither forget nor forgive this injustice.
We are so very sorry for your loss, we don’t know you personally but our hearts break for all of you. Prayers
The Lester Family from Whitesboro TX
My heartfelt condolences from the other side of this small world, no corner of which should be excluded to any of us…
May God hold her close in his arms. Precious flower. And may God take care of the perpetrators.
Prayers and condolences to the family. So sad that this young life ended so soon. Makes me ashamed to be a American.
Words do not exist in any language to describe this kind of tragedy. Tears for her memory. Tears for her family. We must witness and never forget her sacrifice. Shame on this country.
I cannot attend due to inability to travel however Jocelynn’s story is heartbreaking and I am praying for her family 💖 I absolutely hate that they have to live a day without such a vibrant, beautiful child.
My heart is so broken 💔 reading this on social media! She is now in the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Chirst. Her life will leave a great impact. May God give you the strength to endure. Continue to hold on to her memories. Blessings a Facebook follower
Hermosa se que tu spiritu me oye

Anxiety is REAL, this little Angel took it to heart.. After serving my Country as a U.S. Presidential Honor Guard, Washington., DC., I was hired in the #1 Ranking as a Ft. Lauderdale Firefighter.. My ENTIRE Career was marred by Threats of being fired, being brought up on charges for simply applying for benefits, promotions, & worse to participate as a Fire Dept Honor Guard.. One of my Blk Co-workers committed SUICIDE after being Denied Retirement Benefits after 19+ yrs.. My heart ❤️❤️❤️ goes out to this Beautiful Angel & her loving/lovely Family-as I know her pain FIRST HAND.. Dear GOD Hear my Plea, for Mercy, Understanding, & Forgiveness.. Please accept this Angel into the Busom of Your KINGDOM, whereby She will NO LONGER FEEL PAIN, ANXIETY, HEARTACHE, from idol threats, bullying, intimidation.. IN JESUS NAME I PRAY 🙏🙏🙏 AMEN..
❤️❤️❤️ 💜💜💜

descansa en paz hermosa. El mundo fue cruel pero ahora gozas en la gloria de Dios, donde todos deseamos llegar. Tu historia a marcado mi corazon y orare por tus seres queridos y tu hermoso viaje al cielo❤️
I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. My heart goes out to your family. May her beautiful soul rest in peace. Jocelyn deserves justice. Fly high sweet girl. You will always hold a special place in my heart.
My deepest condolences to this family. On february the 7th the day before this tragedy my 12 year old granddaughter also took her life because of bullying. She too was mexican and was bullied on so many levels. This needs to stop n be addressed. The loss was needless n unbearable. How many children do we have to lose. Innocent angels sent from God. You are all in my prayers. I personally know your pain and loss. God bless you and all our children. 💔
I’m not surprised I lived in Gainesville Tx and bullied relentlessly at the Junior high school and high school. And that was 50 years ago!!
My best friend was bullied as well!!
The counselors were a disappointment!
I was afraid to go to school.
God Bless your family!
I just read the article about your daughter. I am so sorry for your loss. My Sincerest Condolences on the Profound loss of your beautiful daughter. It’s so sad how our children are learning at a young age how cruel the world can be. The world has lost a beautiful soul. Que En Paz Descanse. 🕊🙏
I am deeply sorry for your loss. No words can express my deep sorrow.
I am asking if I can add Jocelynn’s picture to a Dia De Los Muertos slideshow?
My Dia De Los Muertos altar is going to be in an exhibit from October 2025 to November 2026.
Lo siento. I cannot believe something like this is possible.
Please contact me through email.
Here is link to exhibit.
I am so sorry for your lost. What a beautiful angel. May the LORD shine upon you and yours. May he hold you in his hand and sheild you during this time of sorrow.
So heartbreaking 💔. Prayers for her family and friends🙏
This madness has got to stop. I’m so sorry for the loss of your sweet baby girl. Words cannot describe how sad I feel for you. Just know that there is a wonderful hope for the future and that you will get to see your sweet girl again. In a world free of hate , the color of some ones skin, or heritage should never matter. I’m sorry you have to go through this.
I am not a guest, I live in Oregon. I read it through the social media. My heart aches for all of you. Such a beautiful girl with a friendly smile. I don’t understand why kids nowadays don’t have any empathy towards others. I’m so heartbroken for all of you. My sympathy and prayers are with everyone there.
Please, I beg this bullying to stop. This little girl did not deserve this. Bullying isn’t just with the children who were bullying her. It comes from parents of these children, what people see in the news, and for those who are there to help and stop this but did not take it seriously. Jocelynn is a precious little 11-year-old girl who was so afraid that her parents would be taken away that she thought this was her only way out. I cry for the family and for Jocelynn who felt her only way out was to end her life. As I wipe my tears, I can only have peace because I know she is in Heaven and is an Angel. If there is anything I can do to help this family, I want to help. I live many states and miles away, but I want you to know people are here praying for you and your family.
I can’t attend as I to live in another state but when your story showed up on Social media TikTok my heart just broke for you and your family. It shouldn’t have ever came to that point my dear where you thought you had to leave your mom and family but I’m praying justice will prevail and this will never be allowed again anywhere. Just know sweet angel that all of us near and far even though we didn’t know you love you and now you’re watching over your loved ones. Fly free and we’ll remember the smiles from your pictures/videos. 🩵🙏🏻🩵 My sincere condolences to the family.
My sincere condolences to the family. This is truly heartbreaking and tragic. Such a precious little girl. An Angel. With tears in my eyes, I share your thoughts and pain. May God comfort you and give you strength during this difficult time. The Battle is the Lord’s.
RIP “Joycelynn, another beautiful Rose in Heaven
Rest in Peace 😇 Enjoy doing cartwheels, dance and sing in Heaven with other 😇’s in a bed of beautiful 🌺.flowers. Que en Paz Descances Angelito, Y Diosito Te tiene en su Santa Gloria.
I am so deeply sorry for your loss. She was beautiful little girl. My deepest condolences and prayers for your family.
I feel the same. I’m so sorry for this family’s loss. What a beautiful girl. I’m thinking of her dear mother and praying for you all.
What a beautiful sentiment 🌹For a very special life taken so soon from this earth. I share your thoughts as well, and hope this precious angel 😇 is at peace now. I am praying for Jocelyn and all who love and care for her. 🙏
I did not know her but my grandkids did. Deepest condolences to your family. Hugs and prayers.
Reaching out with love across the oceans. Her story has touched hearts here in Australia.
So sorry beautiful angel
Mi más sentido pésame a la familia de este ángel. Mi corazón está con ustedes. Que mi dios los acompañe en este momento tan difícil. Nosotros también estamos con ustedes.
I did not know you, precious Jocelyn. I’m so sorry baby girl. You’re now an angel. Fly high🕊🕊🕊
I write to you from San Antonio, Texas. My deepest condolences. I pray for your family. May your sweet baby girl rest in peace.
Rest in peace Angel. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. From Canada with love 🙏
I am deeply sorry for your loss. No words can express my deep sorrow.

Rest in Peace Jocelynn ❤️
No vivo en Gainesvillle, pero vi la historia de su niña. No me puedo imaginar lo que están sintiendo en este momento. Ella no merecía esto. Merecía sentir seguridad en su escuela, y merecía tener una vida larga y llena de alegría. Ustedes merecían verla crecer y compartir en su crecimiento y en sus triunfos. Ahora merece justicia. Que descanse en paz, y que Dios los acompañe en este tiempo difícil. Nunca conocí a Jocelynn, pero comparto en su dolor y si tristeza.
Rest in peace sweet girl. I live in San Antonio, and read about what happened in the news. You will not be forgotten. You will hold space in my heart and your family in my thoughts.
You deserve justice Jocelynn. You are loved by thousands and we will fight for you. May you rest in peace
Rip Beloved Little child, I don’t know you But I saw this from all the way in Oregon and it saddened us greatly of what has happened to you , God Bless you little girl Lots of Hugs and Kiss’s for you and your Familia, que en Paz descanses linda Nina ..
Nunca olvidaremos esta Nina , Y lo que paso En Pas descanses Linda Nena
I know there are no words that will make this hurt lessen. I am so very sorry or your loss.
My deepest condolences for the loss of your beautiful daughter. May God Bless and keep you close.
I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. As a grieving parent, reading about you daughter, it’s so heartbreaking.
Sending all of you so much love as you navigate life without your sweet daughter.
My story is very similar to Jocelynn’s, and it breaks my heart that she went through so much pain. 💔 I hope for healing for you all. You all deserve so much love and comfort during this time.
PS: My daughter loved hearing about the things Jocelynn loved — so much of what she loved, my daughter loves to do. 💕
I am not a guest of the family but i was heartbroken to hear Roselynn;s story. Please know that there are so many of us here that know how much value and richness immigrants contribute to society and our culture. What happened to Roselynn should never happen to anyone let alone an 11 year old girl. I know there is nothing I can say that can make the pain any better but I hope it helps a little knowing so many people are outraged by this situation. My name is Leslie and I have a brother whose birthday is on June 17th, so I have a strange connection and a feeling Roselynn will live in my heart and my prayers for a long time. I don’t have any profound things to say none of it would make you feel any better any way I am sure. Just hang in there and I will be praying for Roselynn and your family. She will be looking down watching over you.
Sincerely,
We, of like minds, are humiliated by our own country. I pray this beautiful angel forgives us from the arms of The Heavenly Father – she is safe now.
My deepest sympathies to your family. May your sweet soul rest in peace, beautiful girl. I did not know you but your story saddened my heart. God bless you and your family.
I did not know you, precious Jocelyn. I’m so sorry baby girl. You’re now an angel. Fly high🕊🕊🕊
Thinking of your family with sadness after Jocelynn’s story reached us in CT. I’m so sorry for your loss.
There are no words to make this loss make sense. Thoughts and prayers are insufficient. Jocelynn will not be forgotten. I’m so very sorry that her precious life was cut short way too soon.
Today you are laid to rest. We are so sorry that some utterly unkind young humans took away your hopes for tomorrow and replaced them with fears that were insurmountable. You did not deserve that. My heart breaks for you, an 11 year old girl, who should have owned and enjoyed all her tomorrows with her friends and her family. From across the seas we hold space for you and your family, rest in peace little one ❤
I did not attend, nor do I know any of you. I just want to give my sincerest condolences to the ones who lost this beautiful child when she was only 11. This is a tragedy no family should ever have to face. I know I’d crumble seeing the pain behind your eyes, let alone having to live it. I hope to my core you will find strength together as a family. I wish you all peace and the space to heal as you pick up the pieces in the wake of her absence.
No conozco a esta bebita preciosa pero ella merecía un mejor futuro, mejor de lo que nuestra situación política y social le pudo ofrecer. Me llenó de bastante tristeza leer de su fallecimiento, y aunque no la conozca— vivirá en mis oraciones y en mi corazón. Por lo que pude leer entiendo que era una hermosa princesita llena de muchos talentos. Mi más sentido pésame para sus hermanos, padres, familiares y amigos. Les mando un muy fuerte abrazo.
My your beautiful angel REST IN PEACE.
I don’t know your daughter, or your family, but I’m so sorry for your loss.
My sincerest condolences to the family. Baby Jocelynn , I am so sorry baby girl. May you rest in heaven
Your country failed you. I’m so sorry, little one.
My heart breaks to learn about your beautiful, loving, sweet girl, Jocelynn. I send the deepest love to your family and will hold her in my heart. Her passing is a loss to the world. Words do not do justice to the sadness.
A la familia Carranza, lamento mucho su trágica pérdida. Estoy orando por sus corazones rotos, pero Jocelynn no necesita oración; ella es seguramente la estrella más brillante del Cielo…
To the Carranza family, I am so very sorry for your tragic loss. I am praying for your broken hearts, but Jocelynn needs no prayer; she is surely the brightest star in Heaven…
May flights of angels sing thee to thy rest, Jocelynn,
and light perpetual shine upon thee. Alleluia.
Sweet baby girl. Rest now in a place that knows peace. Too soon and although I never met you, I will keep you in my heart always.
From Iowa and read what has happened. I am so sorry for you loss of this precious angel. Heart goes out to the family. ❤️
You deserved the world, and words cannot do justice to the horrors the world visited on you. You will not be forgotten. My deepest condolences to the family for your unimaginable loss.
To friends and family – please know that you are loved, and you are not alone.
Mi mas sentido pesame a la familia Rojo Carranza. Tengo un nino de 10 anos y no me quiero imajinar por lo que estan pasando. La perdia de un hijo es un dolor que ningun padre quiere conocer. Desgraciadamente los ninos pueden ser muy crueles y le robaron a esta pequena su ninez, sus alegrias y finalmente sus ganas de vivir. Esperemos se haga justicia ya que es una verdadera tristeza lo que a ocurrido. Que descanse en paz la preciosa Jocelynn y esperemos que su familia encuentre las fuerzas para seguir adelate. Ahora ella los cuida desde el cielo. Su recuerdo vivira porque a conmovido a miles por todo el mundo entero.
I’m so sorry to hear of this tragedy. Your words about her are beautiful; I can see her joy and vitality in my mind’s eye. She should be here to grow up. Thank you for sharing her spirit. I know nothing I can say or do can ease this horror, but I will not forget her and will fight to end this hate in her name, and for all our sakes.
May our Lord bless you and keep you safe. He has welcomed your precious child in His loving arms.
I am so incredibly sorry, sweet Jocelynn. My heart aches for your story, and I can only hope that you are now in a realm beyond this existence, where your energy is embraced with peace and kindness.
I will never forget the time I was harassed by high schoolers after Hurricane Katrina swept through the Gulf Coast—mocked for my appearance, taunted that I should be on rooftops fixing them, and even physically hit. This was almost TWO DECADES ago. At the time, I thought that was cruelty. But this—this is beyond that. This is the ultimate failure.
Our nation is failing us. This should have never happened. We are failing our children. Jocelynn deserved protection, support, and a future filled with hope. Instead, she was met with a system that allowed her suffering to go unnoticed, unheard, unanswered.
How many more lives must be lost before we demand real change? How much more suffering must be endured before we hold accountable those who enable it? Jocelynn’s story is not just a tragedy—it is an urgent call to action. We cannot remain silent.
We must do better. We have to do better.
I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. I’m so sorry that this is her story—no child should have to carry that kind of fear. Please know that people are thinking of you, sending love and support, and that she will not be forgotten. Your daughter will not be forgotten .
Fly high sweet baby girl. I didn’t know your family or you but this is completely broken my heart.
I am so sorry that this happened to you. my deepest condolences. I cant imagine the pain that your parents are going through. My heart breaks for your family and friends. We will put up the good fight here. Rest in peace
Estamos juntos con ustedes. Que Jocelynn está en paz con nuestro Señor, y con todo su familia que están en Paraíso.
No words can convey the depth of sorrow I feel for your unimaginable loss of your precious daughter Jocelynn. Her story should not be one of hatred but rather a call to kindness and compassion. I hope that Joselynn’s name becomes a becomes a beacon for change in our world, inspiring a gentler, more loving future. As she watches over us, may she find solace in the profound impact she has had on this world and on me personally.
May your memory be eternal, sweet girl! May we keep fighting to prevent the atrocities and cruelties you should have never been subjected to.
I am so deeply sorry for your loss. Jocelyn was a beautiful young lady who should still be with us.
–
Lamento mucho tu pérdida. Jocelyn era una joven hermosa que todavía debería estar con nosotros.
To the Carranza family, I am so very sorry for your tragic loss. My heart is with you at this time of grief and sorrow. My deepest sympathy to you and all who knew Jocelynn. She will hold a special place in my heart forever.
Rest in peace little angel! My heart breaks for your family and friends.
Sending you love from New York City. I am so sorry for your terrible loss. May her memory be blessing and her spirit a promise of hope.
A tiny star, a fleeting light,
A gentle spirit, pure and bright.
Too soon you left, we don’t know why,
But in our hearts, you’ll never die.
Though tears may fall and grief may sting,
Your memory is a blessing, a song we sing.
A little flower, softly pressed,
Forever loved, forever blessed
I am so sorry for the loss of your beautiful girl. Continued prayers and love
I don’t know this family, but this story broke my heart. Siento mucho que le haya pasado esto a este angelito. No merecía que la trataran así. La muerte de esta niña no solo debe quedar en las conciencias de los que la trataron mal, pero también de este gobierno que hace que este ocurriendo todo esto. JUSTICIA PARA JOCELYNN
So very sorry for the loss of your beautiful beautiful daughter. No parent should have to bury a child. Praying for you
A beautiful little girl that deserved so much more, to be happy, enjoy learning and to just live as any other little girl would. Life is not always fair. Rest in peace beautiful child, where you are going all people are accepted and live joyously. You are loved. 🙏❤️
There are no words. For those parents of the children who are responsible, teach love and encourage change. Your children were taught to preach hate to an innocent baby. Educate other parents on how your teachings ended a precious young life.
God bless her her friends and family. I am so so sorry. We need to love and protect our children ❤️
My heart weeps for your family in the loss of your dear Jocelyn. Her picture shows her sweetness and innocence. I am so sorry that she felt lost and alone. Love to all the family.
I am so sorry for your loss. I can think of no other words, but my prayers are for you.
We are so very, very sorry for your loss, and the fear that has been thrust on your family. Your precious angel is at peace now. There are no words anyone can say, but know that our love and support are with you.
Sweet girl. I do not know you, but I mourn for you and your family. May the arms of Angels wrap around you in peace and love.
Bless you little one. May the angels and archangels and all the company of heaven protect you. You deserve so much more…you deserve to be protected.
I wanted to send you my love and prayers, I don’t know her but saw the story online and my heart breaks for you all. Please keep your hearts open you have lots of people thinking of you.
Know that so many people are holding your family in prayers as you grieve the loss of your angel. May Our Lady of Guadalupe cover you with her love.
I read about your story and I am so sorry that kids could be so cruel. You did not have to leave this world like this. I pray that you are resting peacefully with our Lord and His Angels. I pray your parents know that you were loved from others far away. I pray that your parents find peace in knowing you are with our Father in Heaven 🙏🏻
having seen your face, and having read your story, I, and now everyone else, are a more broken people. I’m sorry no one told you your peers are meaningless, I’m sorry no one told you that you are the center of Gods universe. Please come back quickly in the coming kingdom, we love you so much
My heart broke reading about this lovely child losing her life as a result of the bullying of insensitive children. Equally disheartening is that her school (Gainesville Independent) has no comment on its webpage about this tragic loss. Mi más sentido pésame a la familia
De Jocelynn Espero que encuentren consuelo en saber que muchos estamos de su lado y lamentamos profundamente la pérdida de su hija.
Sorry for you loss RIP sweet beautiful girl
May you rest in God’s loving arms sweet angel, many prayers to the family. So sorry for your loss.
Sending love and prayers from PA.
Such a beautiful child.
I am heartbroken about your loss. I feel the pain. I wished she said something to anyone. Blessings.
Prayers for all of the family. I am so so sorry for your loss.
I can’t offer words. But I can offer signs of peace, love, calm, eternal happiness for all of you 🩷
I know that you don’t know me but I want to let you know that I will be praying for you and your family even though I live all the way up in Tennessee
Heartbroken in Massachusetts. Lord, lead us to repentance.
You uphold the cause of the orphan, the widow and the foreigner. Teach us to be kind.
My heart goes out to you in this difficult time. I just seen this story and I could never imagine what you are going through. I fight everyday to keep my daughter strong with the bullies in her life. May princess Jocelynn rest in peace and may your heart find comfort . 🕊️
I do not live in the USA but saw this and wanted to offer my condolences and a prayer for your family. Dear Heavenly Father, in this time of sorrow, we lift our weary hearts to You. We ask for Your loving embrace to surround this grieving family. May they find solace in Your constant presence and feel the peace of God that surpasses all understanding. O Lord, grant them strength for each step of the way. Amen
Mia Turner (Australia)
I’m am so sorry for your loss, while I do not know you personally I understand the pain of losing a loved one. You are strong and you are surrounded by love.
😊
My heart is broken and aches to learn from this senseless tragedy. May your beautiful and innocent little girl rest in paradise with the angels where there is no hate, racism and ignorance like there is here on earth. I pray that you will see her again one day and that you will somehow find peace knowing that there are so many who have read about this story online and share your agony and pain. We are wrapping your family in our prayers and I am praying for the soul of this country. May the eternal light shine upon her.
Though we have never met… my heart is broken. To Jocelynn’s family. I am so incredibly sorry for what you all are going through. May her memory be a blessing and know you are being thought about nationwide. There are no words. I am just so sorry.
When I read the story my heart broke and my stomach dropped. I hope the family finds peace, they are all in my thoughts. Sending love to them.
Such a tragedy. Sending much love from North Dakota 🕯️she seemed like a beautiful soul
I’m so sorry for your loss. I read your daughter’s story, and I’m beyond consumed with sadness. We need to bring awareness to what has happened to Jocelyn, so that it doesn’t happen to another beautiful child. I pray for you during your difficult time.
What I have read, she was loved by many and gone too soon. May she rest in peace.
Although I am not from Texas, my Hispanic/Native American Indian grandparents were born there. They worked the agricultural fields as very young children and suffered bullying everyday, simply because of the color of their skin and poor English. I am so sorry for the pain your sweet Jocelyn suffered each day at school and the teachers, guidance counselors, staff and Principal stood by doing nothing to help her. Find comfort in knowing she is with God and one day you will get the chance to hold her in your loving arms. God Bless you and your family.
Jocelynn – Your precious life matters. It breaks my heart 💔 that you were bullied and left this world so soon. I invite your family to reach out to me if there is anything I might do to be supportive or to honor your memory. I have a feeling that your life is going to change this entire world for good. Peace & love to your family & friends 💕 (I encourage people to donate to your GoFundMe.)
I’m so very sorry for you and your and family’s precious loss 🪽🩷🪽
Condolences to the family. I’m so sorry for your loss. This SHOULD NOT have happened. Jocelynn WILL NOT be forgotten nor will citizens of Gainesville be silent! The School District may be silent but WE WILL NOT! Your child will not be forgotten and we will be her voice💜🕊️ Fly high sweet angel

Oh mija.,. I wish it didn’t come to this. I will be praying for you and your family. I’m sorry that today’s world is so ugly and that it made you feel like you are unacceptable. But I want you to know, there are strangers who don’t know you and we love you. I know you are in a better place. My husband passed away a year ago 03/31/24. And I can’t even imagine the pain your mother and father are experiencing.. my daughter is two. 😭 but I pray that God is comforting your family members in this time and I pray they understand you are with our savior now. No pain or humiliation can’t touch you. I pray that your soul rest In peace and know that me and my baby love you. Even if we are strangers, no one deserves to feel the last moments you have experienced
My heart goes out to this family. I’m so sorry for the loss of your lovely child. You are in my prayers. I hope you know that her death wasn’t in vain and she is a little hero to many who are in the dark and are scared to open up about being bully…still.

I am devastated by the loss of this precious and vibrant child. Her passing is inconceivable. I do not know the family, but may they be comforted in knowing many of us are grieving with them. May she rest in the loving arms of her Creator, and those who love her be surrounded by grace.
I am so sorry for the loss of your sweet girl. My thoughts are with you and your family in this devastating time.
Sweet Angel I am so heartbroken for you and your family. You are an innocent child living in a cruel country. YOU NOR YOUR FAMILY SHOULD HAVE EVER BEEN THREATENED! And the Children that bullied you are absolutely wrong just like their parents. May YOU CONTINUE TO BE MORE ENLIGHTENED AND WATCH OVER YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS. Bless you sweet girl 💕
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time. Rest In Peace Sweet Girl🙏
May her rest in peace as a teenager myself Ik I gone through bullying and I tried to do the same but Ik I couldn’t but as us children we should not be going through this bulling 11yrs old is way to young although yes I’ve seen younger but come on those kids sick for saying that to Jocleyn even if they say it’s a joke to her and her family it’s not a joke she deserves justice I don’t care how young those kids are that bullied her they should learn there lesson and be in jail no matter what age they are they need to learn there lesson coming from a teenager Ik what she went through I still go through it to this day but God pulled me back to my feet and told me no you can’t do this my child so I agreed and said your right but yes she needs to be loved I hope you guys are doing okay we are here to support and love you guys but LLJRC💗🪽
my heart truly goes out to you . i am just a stranger but i am sad to hear about this and i send my deepest condolences and prayers . and i am so sorry for your loss i can’t imagine what it is like for this family . it is a heartbreaking situation just know there are people who do not know you but we mourn her and care for your situation . this is truly a tragedy and it is so devastating that she did not get to live her life to the fullest . but now she is a beautiful angel in heaven . so so sorry for your loss .
This breaks my heart. Precious beautiful girl. May the peace of God surround her loving family and friends. My heart goes out to each of you. I will be praying for you.
No words can express my condolences to your family. A parent never thinks their child would leave this world before them. My prayers go out to your family, friends and those hurting from the loss of your sweet girl. No one deserves this especially an innocent child. My Hispanic roots have been in Texas/New Mexico since it was apart of Mexico. This hate is wrong on so many levels. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that”~MLK
I am a mom and I can’t even imagine what you are going through right now. I’m so so sorry you have to go through this heart breaking loss. I just wanted to let you know I have cried with you as if she is my own and so heart broken you have to go through this grief….. no words can explain this pain. I pray over time the whole family will heal and find a purpose in your daughters name to help others❤️ We all forget the space we are taking in this world is given by the almighty God and we all forget to teach our grown children to understand that they are not entitled to anything in this world and have no greater rights than the next person to be on this planet or country ….. I don’t know when we as parents start to teach our children to be better human beings than us, I don’t know when as parents we will start learning to teach our babies to love and respect one another and stop repeating what our ancestors taught us or what they were doing. We have one sun and it shines on all of us there is no reason to feel like we all can share this earth with out trying to push each other around. Shame on us as parents that we normalized hate and bulling in our house and community! Put yourself in this beautiful family place and feel the pain you and your children put them through? I don’t even know how people can fall sleep knowing that they have something to do with a child’s death. I hope we all ask ourselves how much pain and suffering we put through this innocent family. They should not have to endure the loss of their beautiful daughter. Shame on all of us! God please help this family heal and give them strength and lift this family up💝
So sorry for your loss my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family and friends! God bless everyone!
Que Dios les ayude en este tiempo duro, y que su presciosa angelita esté protegida por las manos de Dios
You are a beautiful angel. I’m sorry for what the family is goinf through and i wish healing and peace for this family. God bless.
Mi corazón sufre con ustedes en este momento inimaginable de pérdida. No hay palabras que puedan expresar completamente la profundidad del dolor al enterarme del fallecimiento de Jocelynn. Lloro junto a ustedes, no solo como alguien que comprende las luchas de nuestra comunidad, sino también como una persona de fe que cree en la dignidad sagrada de cada niño.
Por favor, sepan que su familia está en mis oraciones, y llevo la memoria de Jocelynn en mi corazón. Que descanse en el eterno abrazo de nuestro Dios amoroso, libre de dolor y rodeada de paz. Y que ustedes encuentren fortaleza en el amor y la solidaridad de quienes caminan este camino con ustedes.
