To the Site owner could I quote some of the details from your above post as long as credit for the post is given in a link back to your site?
Monti was truly an Angel on earth. He touched my life and it will never be the same. He was so young but had the spirit of a wise and blessed man.Everything about him spoke love. Something that I thought I knew until I met him. He loved unconditionally, and thru many of our trials, he taught me how to do the same. And because of that, My personal mission so that Monti's memory lives on...is to love and show love the same way that he did. Everything he did, he did out of love. Whether he would give you his last, fight for you, check on you, or check you, he did it out of love. When you love someone, you show them, you tell them when they are wrong and you stand up for them when they are right. You don't stand and watch them do things that will hurt them and when they get hurt cry.You stop it if you can. God said that we are each other's keeper. And when you can do no more turn it over to Him. He'll fight the battle for you. I fought hard because I loved Monti and wanted a better life for him and for us. I may not have always done it the right way, but my reason was always the same. I have peace in knowing that all that me and Monti went thru, he chose to came home and we made peace with each other. He made peace within himself as well. He talked to God. I could hear him while I was in the kitchen cooking for Father's Day. He said that he was tired. He started to explain his conversation and I told him whatever has happened in the past, we will leave it there.We forgave each other for all the past mistakes, temper tantrums, harsh words and harsh actions. It is important to me that those that do not know understand that among the many choices that Monti made, he chose to come home. I still battle sometimes because out of all the times I fussed for him to stay home, for arguement sake, I let him go.We had just let all the drama go and I didn't want to argue. He kissed me goodbye, and said I love you, I'll be right back. I dozed off and awoke thinking to myself, he's not here, he said he would be right back. He said he was done with the games. I called...no answer. I text'd him something like, "Damn, Monti, like that". I fell asleep. I awoke to the fact that, he was never coming back home. Everytime I look at our car, I see him. Its hard. But my peace comes from knowing that no matter what, at the end, he chose to come home. And because of that, we had the chance to make amends.I know that God doesn't allow death until it's our time. He needed his Angel back.But I still miss him. But he left knowing that I fought for him because I loved him. No other reason than that. He talked to God alot over those few days and in my opinion, he knew somthing that we didn't.He asked me to promise to look after his mama and his son if anything ever happened. For those that have reached out to me and my daughter,thank you. Thank you for knowing that he loved me and I was his decision. Disrepecting that fact is disrespecting him and what he chose. You love me because he did. I love you too. And to those three individuals, I will make sure to be there every step of the way to witness God's decision in judging your awful sin. You fell week to Satans plan to bring down one of God's sons. And because of that, Monti's blood is on your hands. -Jameilla
First of all i want to say that I am really pissed off..Mearl and I have been so close for a long time...Mearl was like a big brother to me..Whenever Im in trouble or just need someone to talk to, now who the hell am I suppose to call on..I just can't pick up the phone anymore and say "what good bro" or "what we doing tonoght peeps." and I cant do that anymore because some grown ass man took my 22yr old cousin away from me... Now whenever i see his son all I can do is just see my brother.. And my aunt was just now warming up to the fact that the just buried her daughter two years and and four days before Mearl was taken from her. We just celebrated his sister Jennifer Ashline death and birthday the weekend before...I am kinda happy that these man were caught, be all the they still get the chance to live, while my cousin had to die..Im still having dreams about my cousin..I can be sitting in the daze and just hear talking to me saying, "what's up", the fact of the matter is that, these man took cousin away from his family and friends and most of all my godson his son. Mearl is my son's godfather, it hurts like hell when my son says,"mama is Mearl dead", then I have to tell him yes...I cry all the time cause i cant stop thinking about him. I miss him so much, and I will be there everyday until these dudes are put away...R. I. P. BRO MONTIGUE KEVIN "MEARL" ASHLINE..GONE BUT NEVER WILL BEFORGOTTEN...
I just want to say that Kevin was my favorite cousin. He was always there for me when ever I needed someone to talk to, help and support. My cousin was very young when he got killed and to know that a 45 year old man and 33 year old man are responsible is very very massed up. These are grown a** man and my cousin was only 22 years old. I bet you these guys didn't even think about the fact that his mother just barried her daughter "Jennifer Ashline" Kevin's older sister on 6/20/07. This is two years and 4 days before Kevin's murder. Jennifer loved her brother, mother, sisters and family. Kevin was everything to her man I mean the love my cousin had for her brother who was also like my little brother to me was very precious. Jennifer is another person that was always there for me and when we lost her it was devestating. I cried every day for like 3 months. I got so stressed out behind her death I didn't think I was going to make it but, I had to remember I had a child of my on. Now I have lost Kevin and I try every day to not think about what happend but I can't help it. Sad that these guys were so selfish they killed him for not having anything. I am really going to miss my cousin and I can't say that this will give me and my family closure but trust these guys will get whats coming to them! I love you CUZZ RIP Kevin "Mearl" Ashline.
Kevin was my first love. We were together for 3 years. I am shocked! Nobody deserves to be shot and left to lay on a cold, wet street. I really hope that someone comes forward with information. And one day the punk that did this can be left to rot in an 8x8 cell. He was a father, son, brother, uncle, cousin, etc. His son deserves to know that someone is paying for taking his Daddy from him. The petty violence needs to stop! R.I.P. Kevin
I think that this is really sad how we keep losing ppl. I am his cousinand it hurts for me to know that he was murder and noone is willing to come forth. Just think if this was ur son, grandson or husband. Wouldn't you want to kno did it. If you know anything please come forth.
