Our Father, Who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven, Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May their soul, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

Thinking of Jocelyn’s family as you get ready for the holidays  I know there is a huge hole in ur heart ❤️. May you find the comfort from our Heavenly Father 🙏💞

Jocelyn was like an older sister to me, like 2 weeks before her pass we went over to her house and she showed me her record player she would always i mean always light up the room with her big smile

I am so sorry about what happened to Jocelyn Nungary and her family. I know there is nothing I can say that can make things better for the family but I hope they can find some kind of peace and happiness back in to their lives. I also hope that those who did this to Jocelyn face the full weight and force of justice from the law. 

Love and thoughts from California ❤️ 🕯️

To the mom and family of Jocelyn Nungaray. 
My deepest condolences.  

From a Texan mom.

Dear Jocelyn Nungaray

I was heartbroken to hear about the tragic loss of your precious child, Jocelyn. Words cannot truly express the sorrow I feel for you during this incredibly difficult time. My heart goes out to you as you navigate such an unimaginable loss.

Please know that my thoughts are with you, and I hope you find some comfort in the loving memories of Jocelyn. The light they brought into the world will never be forgotten, and I believe their spirit will continue to surround you with love.

With deepest sympathy,
Ryan St Louis

Today is Halloween, and you're on my mind, I know and cant imagine the pain of your beautiful close knit fam.
  I saw your hero aka mommy on TV, and it truly comforts me knowing she is being heard and your voice! I bet heaven is just magical beautiful!  

forever 12 forever our Joci!

love from Dallas, Tx.

Like Beyoncé once said in her song "Heaven couldn't wait for you" but she is in a better place I need to remember but still everyone still missing her and thats okay it's like the circle of life

yesterday marks 130 days without u joce, all people misses u  beautifull babygirl

My name is Lawrence Hardin, from Saint Louis Mo. I saw the news and read the transcript, of the case and even thow i new you not it dose not diminish the heart break im feeling,  I'm thinking of all the things you could have done! I could go on for such a time, but we all know this! Love you Jocelyn NUNGARAY, and may you be all the things in Heaven that you missed out on earth! To the mother of Jocelyn, the "PAIN" you are feeling will subside in time! Hold dear ♥️ to all the memories!
                      Sincerely, Lawrence D Hardin!

I am so very sorry for your loss.  Know that so many people grieve for you.  Children are so precious, but as I’m sure you know,  she is safe and in God’s hands now and you will see her again in heaven.  I pray you can find some peace until then.

God bless Alexis Nungaray daughter, Jocelyn, for her life.    It's difficult to ascertain why Jocelyn life was impacted.  May her memory be etched in our minds forever.

I miss you sweet girl you were a my star  4 months  without you I wish you were here

I still think of you all the time I am hoping your liking Heaven

You don’t know me, but I have felt your pain every day since this (completely preventable) tragedy occurred. Our leaders have failed, MISERABLY. Jocelyn was a beautiful young lady. Looking at her pictures broke my heart even more. I know our leaders have not so much as reached out to you, so it’s up to us to do just that. Let you know we are all behind you, especially during this difficult time. No child deserves this. None. I pray every day that the two monsters responsible for this get their karma. I also pray for God to wrap you in his loving arms when you need him the most. My deepest, most heartfelt condolences 💐 for Jocelyn and her family. Let’s all do our part to get the leaders who’ve failed us OUT, and get someone in there who will make America SAFER again. 

I will not rest until that happens. ❤️ 

For Jocelyn, Laken, and every other life that has been stolen.

Hi joci I miss you sooooooo much I think of you everyday I wish your here on earth you didn't deserved this at all

my condolences to her family i’m so sorry for your loss i hope it all gets better god bless you all✝️💗

We miss you so much joce 
Long live joce🤍🕊️

I am so sorry for your loss. You don’t know me, and I didn’t know Jocelyn. I live a block away from you and I found out about this just a month ago. This story shook me to my core to the point where I have made arrangements to move from where I am because if I were to have seen that at night this little girl was being spoken to by 2 grown men, I would have interfered and it pains me to see that no one else in this neighborhood interfered. My deepest condolences for your family, this will never be lived off.

So sorry to the family
Rest in God's arms little one

I'm so so sorry for your loss. No one and I mean no one deserves what she want through.  I'm sending love, hugs and plenty of prayers 💕🙏🏼

I am so sorry for your loss. 
Sending prayers and love during a very difficult time for all of Jocelyn’s family and friends ❤️❤️❤️

I continue to pray Gods comfort for you and your family,  I think of you so often.  I pray  for justice  for your precious Jocelyn .  
Carolyn McGee 🙏💞

I'm so sorry for your loss- I know her memory will remain alive 4ver. We will all be reunited in gods kingdom.  Your pain and grief seems never ending, nothing we say or do can change that- but we are here for you during this time.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I cannot begin to fathom the pain you must be feeling, the emptiness that will never go away. Praying for your family.

It is so hard to fathom such a sweet life to be taken. what is more heartbreaking is that the people who we trust and put in charge to protect us always fall short. They will never share or bare any responsibility for failing in their sworn oath that we hold dear and they just use the words for their own gains. My whole life I have had my heart hit by the evil that slimes around us and never to end. My love and heart felt sorrow goes out to Jocelyn's family. As Jocelyn is not on this earth anymore let not her everlasting light leave us blinded.

Dear Nungaray Family,
First of all, my deepest condolences for your loss. I think of your daughter and your family every day; her case breaks my heart. I am a girl in college who also lives in Houston, and a couple of days before Jocelyn's murder, I was walking home at 9 pm and was followed by a suspicious man in a car who tried to ask me for directions. I sensed bad intentions and ran off when I saw people coming the other way. When I saw Jocelyn's murder on the news a week later, it shook me to the core because I realized that could have been me. I hope that those monsters get what they deserve in prison and that there is reform in law and security so this never has to happen to anyone again. I hope that in time, your family heals and leads long, happy, healthy, and successful lives, and that when the time comes, you can reunite with her in heaven.
Much love,
R.S

I remember Jocelyn was always sweet and kind to me she was like my MJ I wish her a very good happy place in haven I know that she loves animals and the passion and love she cared about animals by the creation by god I know she never had time to do her dream story in life but I know that when am older I will help her finish her story and that story is for her to be a star and all the songs name is gonna be by her I love you Jocelyn rest in peace sweet angel 🫶🏽❤️🕊️

I remember when i first met jocelyn last year from my sister. she was my sisters first friend n they were  inseparable. if one of them weren’t in class the teacher would always ask the other were they were. since her grandma lived down the street from us jocelyn would always come over when she could. i also remember the first halloween we celebrated with her and she was rushing my mom n was telling my sister if they could go. but if i knew it was gonna be the last one i wouldve gave her all my candy and if I knew the our last phone call & playing roblox together i would’ve said i loved her for the last time. we miss you so much jocelyn. today we had our first sleepover without you n it just wasn’t the same. we were all sitting their talking about the good memories with you and funny ones too. like the day we took those pictures at recess. we miss you so much jocelyn and also lana came out with a new song right after you died n i wish I could’ve listened to it with you. anyways we will get justice for you babygirl. i love u to the moon n back forever and always. 🤍
#forever12

I am thinking of Jocelyn’s family tonight, especially her mother.  I will always remember you saying, I had her at an early age, and fought hard for her.  I pray you will find comfort in the days to come, I just want to say once again I truly am sorry for your heartache. 💞🙏

"I'd put you in a parallel universe,
give you a better fate. There is none worse.
I'd let you live a happy bouhood.,
let your gifts bloom into a livelihood
on a planet that didn't bear Cain's Curse.
I'd put you in a nice, safe universe,
not like this one. A universe where you'd
surpass your mother's dreams. But parallel realities may have terrorists, too.
Evil manipulates to infinitude,
like mirrors facing each other in hell.
You were a wormhole history passed through, transformed by the memory of your victim-hood."
-Marilyn Nelson

Didnt know you but read about your death on the news on my phone. So sorry your last hours on earth was so tragic. I believe you are in a much better place where there is no heart break, pain,sadness! I also believe the 2 monsters will pay for there actions. If not in this life then the next. I believe that. I know for the family it’s probably a never ending nightmare. You need to focus on the fact bo matter how much we miss & want them, she’s in such a beautiful,peaceful, place she wouldn’t want to be back here. I promise you this. Stay strong & remember what I say to you.

I remember at school I got put in a class where I knew nobody and since it was the end of the year I wasnt scared but I was very shy in there. She came up to me and we worked up a conversation. Ever since, we were friends. I can't believe I didnt meet her sooner bc of how nice she was, we both loved green, twilight, and ofc stranger things. I will forever miss her and remember her delicate name

I had the privilege of having Jocelyn in my second grade classroom. She was so vibrant, smart, and kind. I remember her being so eager to learn and I enjoyed teaching her that year. My condolences to her family especially her mother. 
-Mrs. Madison

I did not know Jocelyn. But as a mother my deepest condolences go out to Jocelyn's mom and the entire family. Jocelyn has stolen the heart of the entire nation. I can feel the joy that she brought to every soul that she touched. I write this with tears rolling down my cheeks because I can see my daughter in her, and it's unbelievable how evil is among us.  And when I say that the nation stands by you, I mean it. We all want and will fight for justice for this beautiful young girl until the very end. Nothing will make this right but we all want the people responsible to pay for their acts. They had no right to take Jocelyn from her family nor from the rest of the world. They broke the hearts of many moms throughout the nation. My upmost respect for Jocy's mom for staying strong for her son. JUSTICE FOR JOCEY!

I did not know Jocelyn, but I will never forget her. I know that in the bottom of my heart, her death will not be in vain. We, as a nation will get change...unfortunately your angel must serve as the catalyst for this much needed change. I pray for your family everyday, especially Jocelyns little brother and her pets.
Love from CT

I don’t know Jocelyn personally but from social media and everything she seems like the sweetest soul. She didn’t deserve this she was only 12, she deserved a better life and a longer life. She is so beautiful and I hope everyone that was close with her is doing ok and I wish them the best. Rest in peace Jocelyn Nungray. At least we know she is in a better place now 🕊️

I recently heard the story from my broken hearted daughter.  Since than I can't stop thinking of the sleeping beauty, my heart hurts for a beautiful angel I never met.  I can't stop crying, but you would be heartless to not shed a tear for our Jocelyn, yes, our Jocelyn cause everyone with a heart is broken, she is forever ours and Lexi thank you for the memories you shared.  I am lost for words to you, but yes your guardian angel is the most beautiful of all..love from Dallas Tx Irma S Nava

Just was watching the video of your beautiful daughter.  I continue to pray for your comfort.  I also ask that you keep fighting for justice for your daughter.  
I was touched by you saying you have fought for her since she was born. Bless you 
            You are not forgotten in your pain and loss.  So many care .  Heartfelt blessings sent your way   Carolyn McGee 💞🙏

We will continue to go see you Jocelyn there isn't a day i don’t think of you beautiful girl

May Jocelyn  smile shine bright  as the stars across the night sky. For my deepest condolences to her family, friends, and community. I pray  that you  find the strength to heal in your darkest time and may Jocelyn loves ones reunite with her again, past heaven gate one day from  Galveston, Texas.

We were at my friend lauras house having a sleepover. I miss her so much🤍🕊

You didn’t deserve this, I hope you’re okay now and filled to the brim with love, Jocelyn

God bless your family I love & have prayed for you all

Your tragic story has touched strangers all over the city. I was personally touched because you were tragically taken from this earth on the same day that I was mourning the one year anniversary that my mother gained her angel wings.  May you get the justice you greatly deserve and may you continue to be a beacon for change so that no other child has to suffer at the hands of the evil that lurks amongst us.
RIP Baby Girl

Praying for justice, whether it be on Earth or God's Kingdom to be administered.  Hopefully, both will rise up and be heard.

We are so truly sorry for your loss and we are keeping your entire family in our prayers during this very tragic time.

It is with great sadness that I extend my deepest condolences to you during this time. My 17-year-old daughter Louise Wilson was taken from us in December of 2023, so I know somewhat of the grief and sorrow you are experiencing. Just know that there are others in this world that tragically have had to take this walk you are now and with Gods help are still here now. Unfortunately for us we dont know who killed our daughter and may never know. We do know like you have stated that the killers of our girls will face an eternal judgement and will have to answer one day for what they have done. I pray that God wraps his arms around your family and protects you and gives you strength. Find solace and strength in others that have gone through this.

I am from Lubbock Texas and want to express my deepest sympathy.  EMPATHY means your pain in my heart .  
   I pray for comfort as only Our  Heavenly Father can give.  When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.  Jocelyn looks like a beautiful happy daughter.   Praying today ❤️🙏
Sincerely Carolyn McGee

Beautiful angel. Love and prayers for her and her loved ones. I'm running for Congress to help her memory last everlasting. Prayers 🙏🤲 "Levasy Jack" Woodward

To the family of Jocelyn,
     I am someone who lives  in Indiana and who has followed Jocelyn's story as I've seen it on two right-wing networks.  I wish to send my condolences to you.  I listened to this story, listening to the mother and one of her grandfathers, and you two left me in awe as you spoke on TV about Jocelyn.  Your voice for Jocelyn has been heard and I do feel pain that has been caused by this loss in your family.  Please accept my sympathy.  And, please continue doing what you have started.  Your strength is unbelievable and you are helping others understand the insanity of what is being allowed to happen in this country.  I believe that God is with you and He will help keep you strong and build you up on this venture.  I believe that your strength will send a powerful message to the rest of the country to hear.  For whatever reason, you are a part of a bigger plan at work to save our country.  
     Sending all of my heart-like prayers to all,
        C. A. S.

Prayers and strength for Jocelyn and her family.
I'm soooo sorry this happened. I will raise my wand for you Jocelyn <3

Precious Jocelyn, I am beyond hurt about what happened to you. May God hold you and your Family in His Loving Arms always and May His Swift Justice be served for all of you. Sending Love and Light from Compton, CA. 💔😢🙏🕊️🕯️💐

I am so so sorry for your loss. I too have a daughter around that age. She is 10. I can not even begin to imagine the pain you are going through.  My heart truly breaks for you. Please know that I am praying for your family. It makes me so angry to know her death could have been prevented. I am proud of you for having the strength to get on national television and talk about this major, totally preventable problem that needs to change TODAY with our borders.  It’s sickening and such an embarrassment that our Presidency that is supposed to protect its citizens is not only unable to , but  chooses not to.  It’s an absolute disgrace.  Jocelyn was a beautiful girl with a beautiful spirit that touched many, many lives.  Jocelyn is a girl we can all relate to. She represents all of our daughters, granddaughters, nieces, friends. She is loved by so many and won’t ever forget her, has truly made an impact on this nation.  Please know that this country is mourning with you and here for you and your family,

May GOD give you strength during this time of grievance. May you always feel her kisses on your cheek and the warmness of her hugs. May you feel her holding your hand while she dances in laughter in your head. May you hear her whisper "I love you Mom!" when you need it the most.

You were baptized at St. Ignatius Loyola Catholic Church

Christmas time was 2 celebrations , your Birthday and Christmas will never be the same Love Kristopher

We had so much fun at Halloween, Kristopher

My heart is broken that you are gone, Love Kristopher

You will always be my baby girl Jocelyn, Love Kristopher

May Jocelyn  rest in God’s loving arms I’m sending this  message from Middletown, Ohio, God bless her mother and God be with her at this time sending prayers to the whole family there’s tears flowing all over for Jocelyn such a horrible tragedy. We pray that God is with her mother and her family.🙏😢
