Friends and relatives of the late Juice Wrld said their farewells during a private open-casket funeral on Friday (December 13). The services took place at the Holy Temple Cathedral Church of God in Harvey, Illinois near his hometown of Chicago.
Juice Wrld’s mother Carmella Wallace penned a loving tribute for the funeral program, which was obtained by TMZ.
“My dear son Jarad, God trusted me to raise you and I poured all I had into you as the Lord guided me,” Wallace wrote. “We were inseparable and even though you left home early, we were always in each other’s hearts and always had a special bond.”
“We were always overjoyed to see each other, and you still called me ‘mommy’ as you hugged and kiss me when you saw me. Your love was pure and innocent, and your heart was genuine. You truly cared about people and wanted to make the world a better place. I am going to miss you dearly. Rest in peace my dear one; mommy loves you.” [apple_news_ad type=”any”]
The program also included multiple black-and-white portraits of the 21-year-old, along with photo collages of Juice Wrld and his loved ones.
Juice Wrld died last Sunday (December 8) at Advocate Christ Medical Center after suffering a seizure at Chicago’s Midway Airport.
The Cook County Medical Examiner’s Office is still working on an official cause of death pending several tests, including cardiac pathology, neuropathology, toxicology and histology. However, the multi-platinum selling artist reportedly ingested several Percocet pills prior to his death.
Juice Wrld’s siblings, Brian, Alyssa and Maya Wallace, remembered their brother fondly in the funeral program as well.
Opening with a Plato quote, they wrote, “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, fight to the imagination and life to everything. Jarad, you brought life, light and laughter to everyone you met. We will carry you in our hearts always. We love you.”
You may now slip the surly bonds of earth and touch the face of the gods. May peace guide you with each step.
This guy had fans? Isn’t he a TMZ rapper?
What does TMZ rapper mean? Juice Wrld is very popular for songs like Lucid Dreams, which is on every platform
The lyrics for Lucid Dreams were stolen texts from Sting’s instagram post. They are actually words by me, about Sting’s new collaboration with Shaggy. I actually ghostwrote two of Sting’s recent songs, before Lucid Dreams, as well.
Juice Wrld wrote the last half of the lyrics of Lucid Dreams, starting from “Better off ****” but I wrote the Outro phrase “You made my heart ache you made my heart break” and all the rest of the lyrics. I didn’t know I was writing lyrics at the time, because they were originally a comment on an instagram post about Sting and Shaggy starting to work together. Also I get to thinking that Juice Wrld may have discovered my Quora account – because there, I had been answering questions about Lucid Dreaming and Sting, long before Lucid Dreams was ever written. I’m a ghostwriter of creative lyrics for two chart-hitting Sting songs, “I Can’t Stop Thinking About You” from 57th&9th, and “Sad Trombone” from 44/876.
Hey can I get your contact information, I make music and I have a sick beat but I need some lyrics
thank,you
lol. I tried to get in contact with a songwriter for chris brown, Michael Jackson and so on up in west Hollywood to complain and next thing I know he is changing all of his contact details.
I wish what I have told you was not true but it is. I have no intention of making any copyright claims on the song; however, I disclaim that I am posting only for those who want to know more about the song Lucid Dreams. That is all.
