Myeisha Micole was Jamesetta’s last child & Robert’s first child. Myeisha was a beautiful bundle of joy. Raised up on Park street and Moore walkway. Myeisha grew to be a lovable little girl with a humble spirit which followed her throughout all the days of her life .
As a young adult Myeisha enjoyed going out, traveling, attending her kids basketball games, making money, shopping and spending time with her family and friends. Myeisha’s life changed in 2001 when she brought her first child Meashja Mekell Grant into the world . From that moment of her life, it would become all about her daughter . A few years later March 7th, 2003 her second love came MeOnyae Monay Anderson. Followed by Meahjai Marie Anderson, Maniya Anteece Grant, Zion Alexander Clarkson, and Zylin Anthony Coats.
