“To be absent from the body is to be present with the lord” are words Kamaya learned from her mother who said them while mourning the death of a friend. The proud daughter shared a clip from that day Precious uttered those words and echoed them in her caption.

I put a laughing emoji because of the end but Wow this message really made me smile.... you had just lost a classmate... now I’m sad because I’ve lost you... but yes mama to be absent from the body is to be present with the lord..

Precious died just a little over a week after she figured in a car crash that caused her vehicle to hit a pole on February 13. This resulted in a serious asthma attack that complicated her recovery. She was in the ICU since then and was reportedly unresponsive.

Days leading to her mother’s death, Kamaya and the rest of her family including her uncle T.I and his wife Tiny took to social media to offer and ask for prayers as they shared in the hope of Precious making it. Despite their loss, the family remains one in celebrating Precious for the life she lived and the beautiful and hilarious person she was. T.I. even told his followers not to pity him but instead pity those who didn’t get a chance to experience his sister firsthand.

Precious will certainly remain in the hearts of her family, especially her daughter Kamaya and her two other children, Avis Champan-Reese, and Kareem “Plug” Chapman. May she rest in peace.
