When Kev & Liss did their remembrance episode Lord knows I cried as if I knew Jason, but that's bc y'all bring us in like we're fam #HeGotOnThatBus #Insider🕊 🦋👗❤🩹
Same. I cried when they cried. I laughed when they laughed, especially at Grandma Ruthie! This truly feels like family.
Oh my! Me too..I cried and cried and laughed and laughed. I feel like such a family member. RIP Jason
Indeed
I cried and laughed all the same RIH Jason 🕊
Same, was ugly crying at midnight 😢. RIP Jason 🕊
🗣️🙌🏾 THANK YOU GOD for allowing folks to REVEAL THEMSELVES & THEIR TRUE MOTIVES with asking for favors while Kev & Liss are DEEPLY GRIEVING!!! 🗣️🙏🏾
💯💯💯
Not me crying from frustration with the "pop the trunk". I lost my aunt during my senior year of HS. I remember coming to my teacher after class to let her know I would be out and apologize. She stopped me and said "baby dont you ever apologize for being human, take your time"
Thank y’all for sharing him and this with us.
My mom died 2 days ago. I probably shouldn’t have watched, but I needed to cry I think. 💛
My condolences ❤
I'm so sorry to hear that.
Be strong and grieve as long as you need to 💜
hugs!!!!!!!😢❤
I’m so sorry. 🙏🏾
Condolences to you and your family.
That story of Jo’s experience with his teacher made my heart break for him and flood with anger at the same time. May God comfort your family in these times, the devil keeps sending the temptation in spades 🤦🏽♀️
I know this sounds weird, but thank you for letting us grieve with you. I feel like I’ve known y’all for 15 years so Jason’s passing was like losing a cousin that I’ve never seen for real. So weird. I’m sure most people in this community wanted to hug you and cry with you but didn’t know how…until today (and yesterdays video with Kev & Liss). 😭 Real tears, ya hear? Thank you again for sharing your grief with us. Love y’all. ❤
The death of a legendary cousin is exactly how I’d describe Jason and our relationship to the OnStages is felt by them. Happy to be in community while we grieve. It doesn’t feel better but somehow I know deep down this how we are supposed to mourn… with each other 🫶🏽 May Jason rest in peace… until the day we all meet.
@@daniellehacker YEEESSS!! Absolutely ❤️
My friend told me after going through this that "death brings out all the ugly" and I've recently found that to be true 💔
I want to go and fight Josiah's teacher, ASAPtually!
Straight up
Right Now
Count me in! Ignorance of her.
What time are we meeting at the school?
First of all, thank you for this word, asaptually! 😂😂😂😂 that’s hilarious
It's our pleasure to support y'all because LOVE IS A VERB and we LOVE Y'ALL!!! 🫂🦋👗🎬🕊️🙏🏾❤️
The episode with Jason came on last week. Big hugs to the whole Fredericks family. Rest well Jason.
This was the saddest, funniest, informative video I have seen you all do. I know we are just followers but you all include us in so much of your lives, it feels like we lost him as well. This was the closure that I think I needed but had no business wanting. I will keep you all in my prayers. And I know J is up in Heaven “acting like he BELONGS!!❤😢
You said the truth, it feels like our loss too and we don’t deserve the closure and sharing they give❤❤
The front row at the funeral services hits different. It’s so hard.
Getting your affairs in order is key!
Honestly , yall have some great memories. Jay seemed like he got to tell everyone he loved them, vacationed to Disney, and just seemed like he was very "present" in everyone's life. That's a great way to live. He went out on top, no regrets. He lived his life, raised his kids, and made an impact.
Everyone should have a jason.
Y’all should definitely still do Thanksgiving with Tammy and the kids
It was the fact that the teacher, even after Jo said his uncle passed, had a FOLLOW UP comment on what time y’all got back….. like girl what?!!!!
‼️‼️‼️ LIKE!!!! Why was your next comment not "oh, I'm so sorry to hear that. This is the assignment. I'll give you an extra day or two." !?!? People just be PEOPLING, LOUD AND WRONG.
Right !! Didn’t even offer support he may have needed. Your students are people with feelings and family when they leave. You never know what they are dealing with. 😢
That teacher better not be available for parent teacher conference. That was a pretty cruel thing to do to a child!
The restraint and wisdom it took for you to respond the the teacher the way you did…. Man oh man. My sincerest condolences to you all, thank you guys for being so open and willing to share this experience with us. Sending love.
32:08 I absolutely ADORE HOW YOU ALL LOVED JASON. ❤❤❤❤💔❤

I lost my father at 12 and at 26 I’ve forgotten the sound of my fathers voice. I was crying with you ladies. My condolences to your family 🙏🏾
Never ask for favors to someone who have suffered a lose.
@@user-fg9xz4bz3b I don’t know what you mean.
Thank you for this episode. I'm so hurt by Jay's passing. I would respond to his funny insta posts and and he ALWAYS responded. When you all came to London on tour I sat about 3 rows away. I saw all of you but I was shy to come say hello. I mentioned this to him on insta and he was like ' You should've come to say hello!'
I felt invested in knowing he was doing well after his diagnosis and when he was in remission a few weeks ago I was like YES GOD!!!!
I am SO SO SORRY 😥 and I can only imagine what his beloved wife , children, grandchildren, friends and family are going through. I'm sorry. This cuts deep. I pray you find comfort. Please Lord🙏🏽
Thank you for you two sharing this moment with us. One of the reasons your platforms are so popular and we feel like family is because you treat us as such! Definitely will continue to pray for strength for his wife and kids.
I went to a memorial service a few years ago and the speaker prompted everyone to look to their right and left and speak of their loved ones so as to bring them to life in the room. Thank you for speaking life into Jason and sharing him with us. May you always feel his brotherly love in your heart and every day. ❤
I’m sure that teacher knows who you guys are and her words show her jealousy! She was assuming y’all were out there in Tx. enjoying life all the while she was stuck in class. All my prayers go out to you all. 🙏🏽
That’s what I was thinking. She must be lowkey jealous but it ain’t lowkey now.
THAT PART!!!! My thoughts exactly SMH
This was a tearjerker but so dope to see the love.
The insensitive of Kevin's collaborative peers or fans made me angry.
Your family so dope..I love how close yall are even as "in laws". True family
The portion of the podcast when you talked about videos and pictures hit home. In the span of 18 months my family loss 6 family members. My children and I decided to preserve and review some VHS tapes my mom had. OMG....one of the Thanskgiving tapes had my mom, uncle (who was like a brother), grandmother and aunt in it. They're all resting now. We also had that cry/laugh moment. To hear them laughing and loving is a moment in will take to grave with me. Take those pictures, make those memories. I know this was super hard for you all. God bless you all for sharing right in the midst of your pain. 🙏🏽🙏🏽 for you all❤
Cried right along with you all. Unfortunately I’ve experienced the deaths of loved ones close to me many times over. Everything you said is absolutely true. Thank you for allowing us to grieve with you and making us feel like family. Continued prayers and love to all those who knew and loved Jason.
I cried for Kev. I lost my brother September 23rd 3 yrs ago, him loosing his brother just broke my heart.
Losing my dad last year has literally turned my whole world upside down, I've lost other people close to me but my dads passing really messed me up. Grief brings out so much things you didn't even know existed and not having the tools or knowing you even need tools to deal with it can mess you up real bad. It has affected my health(mentally and physically) to the point where I just recently left my job without a back up plan because I really just need time to heal and rest.
I hope everything works out for you. Monetize your hobbies or passions so u can at least work for yourself and give yourself all the time u need. Sending hugs
My dad passed last year unexpectedly. It really did a number on not just me but my family as well. It’s the first time I had to deal with someone so so close to me passing. Everyday I think about him & find myself in a dark place. Prayer & some amazing people are what helps me to keep it together. I know it’s hard for you. Remember that it’s okay for you to feel what you’re feeling. No one can put a time limit on grieving. For the time being check out some at home jobs. There are quite a few legit ones online. Get you a journal and when you feel yourself getting overwhelmed start to write down everything you’re feeling. Know that I am praying for you. You got this!!!
@@kendraholder1989 Thank you, I'll definitely try the writing thing because I'm very bad at allowing myself to feel all my feelings. Strength to you and your family too, let's keep lifting one another in prayer🙌
@@neonkuromi thank you, I'll try to work on that. The virtual hugs are much appreciated 🌻
Prayers for comfort and healing for you. And you will find a job that fits you and your needs. You need time to heal 🫶🏾🙏🏽
This was beautiful! I am still in shock that Jason passed. I know that folks on the innanet are not your real family. However, I feel like I've followed the Fredericks family for a long time and y'all just feel like my internet cousins. Everything y'all said about Jason, we got a glimpse of that through "Club Periscope", Playmakers, heck his IG page with al the hilarious content he posted, etc. I'm hurting with y'all! I love the stories! I love the closeness of y'all relationships. I love the "Act like you Belong" mentality (That's been sticking with me!!) I just love y'all and I'm praying that God carries everyone who was connected to Jay through this difficult season. xoxoxo
As a daughter who lost her father, one of my aunts stepped up and in. She helped handle things very similarly to the way that Mel described Melissa & Kevin’s strength in the midst of tragedy and trauma. I can only imagine how hard it was for them! But, let me just say (as someone who has been on the “receiving end” of the strength & support), there are no words to adequately articulate what that display of “love and strength and God” means! It’s immeasurable! Sending so much love to the entire family!
My father passed away July 29 th and I am the only child so I had to make all the decisions, Thank God for my cousin and my dad Aunt, but funeral arrangements, making the decision to take him off Life support everything 😢 my condolences to your family
@@Yukia76 I’m so sorry for your loss! Making arrangements while trying to process your emotions is hard in itself; I can’t even imagine deciding to cease life support. Best of luck on your healing journey 💜.
@@mj6719 Thanks
“And now we cry…” yes and I did through this whole episode. So beautiful and loving. Thank you for sharing your stories and the deep love you all have for each other.❤
In the moment I was listening to this podcast finally my mouth dropped open when Mrs. Melissa said the teacher made Jo cry. Before even listening to the rest I instantly thought . . .okay where is this teacher at because I am about to catch a case! Didn't know I cared so much because I understand that y'all are strangers to me, but apparently . . .
I am so upset that Josiah’s teacher did that. Shows how awful some teachers are. Hateful and rude.
Last memory of Jay that keeps playing back in my mind: the week before he passed, on your final stop of the Marriage Be Hard booktour, when you were in Houston on stage and took a call from JoJo about his team tryouts and we said hi to him and you turned the phone around and was like "and Uncle Jay is here!" and Jason and Tami were sitting up front to the left of me. He went through his diagnosis around the time my mom did. Was so thankful for his recovery. Praying for y'all.
thank you for sharing this!! i forgot this happened!!
I saw the love hour episode with your brother, and I was so glad he made it through, Kevin cried throughout the episode, and Jason was alive
Then I saw the horrible news, I couldn’t get myself to watch any of the tribute episodes until now
Am so sorry about Jason’s passing, I don’t even want to imagine what you guys are going through
This is to show how people can be so cruel and I used the word cruel. Grieving is hard mentally, emotionally and physically I can testify and the support you guys have is wonderful no one can tell you guys how you must feel the Lord got you guys and Jason love was showed through it all and he felt every bit of it and again I'm so glad I met him and his wife and you guys and that memory I will never forget . Jason got his long white robe Amen R.I.H Jason
I’m praying for you all. I get the impression that doing these special podcasts are therapeutic for you. You light up with love when you talk about him. As you go through this season of first holidays & special days without J, I pray that God gives you all special grace to get through it.🙏🏽
y’all got me over here crying. thank you for sharing this with us. i pray y’all get through this and know he always. be with y’all 🥺🙏🏾
Y'all should print out all the holiday messages as a series of pictures
That’s a great idea
First of all, I’m so sorry for your loss. Second the word “condolences” I HATE IT! When my 27 year old son passed away suddenly last year, I grew to HATE that word. It comes across as empty and insincere. It’s right up there with, “thoughts and prayers” UGGGH! Please know that I’m sorry that you lost Jason. You will never ever be the same, but trust me when I say, it does get better with time ❤
Bless you all for sure. Praying, praying, praying. 🙏🏾 thank you for sending that letter in bold Love and human awareness of the need for empathy. Bless yall for the raw authentic emotions of memories shared, as well as the important message of forgiveness. Thank you.
I feel like that's how family is supposed to be everyone close, getting along, and having a good time. Ty two for getting on and dropping an episode for the podcast, especially during a crucial & grieving time like this. My condolences to your family and close friends who are grieving as well. The Lord says in Matthew 5:4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” 🙏🏽
Uff this whole video was pulling at my heart strings.. This week is the anniversary of my brother's passing.. been 5 years.. i was crying right with you guys. I agree with You guys.. Take the Pic and the Videos...at the end of the day.. those are All you have left to remember them...💜 Thanks for sharing your joy and sorrow with us. 💜🙏🏽💜🙏🏽
My prayers are with you. Next month will be 6 years since I lost my little brother and I wish it got easier but I lost a part of my soul that day.
@@ladytaylor4299 mine too. 💔🙏🏽
Prayers to you all and your family. I applaud you guys for continuing and sharing his joy with the World. God bless
You did the right thing!! And I would’ve cc’d every single administrator on that email as well 😤 The audacity smh.
This was beautiful & a great example of how to talk through grieving. The memories, laughs, etc.
Melissa you are right, people are dumb! I hate that you had to “reword” yourself. Folks are running high on audacity.
I’m so thankful that you all have each other to rely on. The way you love each other as true family versus “in-laws” is so beautiful to see.
Praying for all of you and hope you know how much you all are loved!
Much love and prayers to you all. I appreciate you all being so open with us.🙏🏽💕
I’ve been avoiding this video all week but I’m glad I watched. Prayers to y’all. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I waited to watch this episode and yall still got me on the tram holding back tears okay! 🥺
Thank you for your transparency. I felt every moment when you were talking about how intertwined your families are. My parents met in middle school...so everybody belongs to everybody...period. Please know that I will continue to pray for your whole family.
What a beautiful sentiment, everybody belongs to everybody...
Lord the tears I cried watching this. Keeping your family lifted up in prayer 🙏🏾
The channel is about to hit 100K!!! Congratulations Melissa!
Rest in Heaven Jason, your family loves you so much and we’re blessed by the stories and lessons that Kev and the family shares with us. ❤
Being the eldest(just my sister and I) and also the eldest grandkid and having to help my mom plan my dads funeral was truly rough.. I was like, I'm only 28, where are the adults but I also knew my mom needed me to be strong in that time because she really couldn't be...and I could understand it, I mean, she just lost her soul mate of 30years out of the blue and he was only 50yrs old. They had so many plans together.
🙏🏾🙏🏾💕💕
I hv ugly cried with y’all… I love the love y’all hv for your family. This is absolutely love❤❤❤
The relationship between your family and friends is what it should be like for us all. Praying that your family can find comfort in knowing you have memories of Jason to last and sustain his presence in your lives; whether it's physically or spiritually🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
17:00The pain and passion in Melissa's voice made my heart hurt. I know that pain when people don't show compassion to a child.
Oh that teacher was VERY MUCH deserving of that e-mail. The assumption that his parents were irresponsible and would pull him out of school just to go have a good time…the audacity!! 🙄🙄
Whew...idk why I thought I could watch this video and not cry😔
What I'll take from this video is to extend more empathy and grace! Also to take the pics and videos no matter what!!
Thanks again for sharing with us. Contiuned prayers for the entire family❤
Whewwwwwww Mel DID NOT have to make me weep like that at the very end when I was holding it together so well 😭…. I am keeping the entire KOSS family in my prayers, that God continues to comfort and guide you through this beyond difficult time…❤❤❤❤❤❤
The way I’m sitting at work crying with y’all. My heart goes out to y’all. I am continuing to pray and keep y’all lifted. God bless your family. 🙏🏾
Losing my mom in 2007 makes me sad that we didn't record or take pictures like we do now. I love taking pictures now and that's prob why. I rotate pictures of my mom because I only have so many. Praying for the family still.
I lost my mom 9 years ago and I wish I would have taken more pictures, videos, something. The memories fade take the time to take the pictures in the end its all that is left.
I lost my mom 9yrs ago aswell. And I feel the same way. The solace I have for myself is that in pre-2012-2013 we weren’t really taking photo’s LIKE THAT. And my mom hated facebook even back then so I wasn’t even posting her like that.
@@Buyis our family wasn't big on pictures so I don't have any photos of her that were recent. It is a sad deal.
My God you guys are in my prayers💔 Praying for Tammy’s strength through this extremely difficult time🥺🙏🏾
Me: I ain't a killer but don't push me.
But my horns (Taurus ♉️) came out IMMEDIATELY when you started the story about Joe's teacher. I was already still feeling a way about Ms Nigeria at the mall and then this insensitive ass teacher. Yeah I love God but I still cuss!
I've been sad and emotional since I saw Kev announce Jason's passing weeks ago. As if I knew or met him in person. Again I offer what I can...prayers, condolences, empathy, love, and light for what is to become your new normal. Big Mama Hugs to all of you.
Condolences, prayers & love to you all ❤️❤️❤️
Whew y’all. RIP Jason 🙏🏽🕊️
I am so happy to able to support your family in any way . My deepest sympathies to all you guys❤
You all are so right about the videos and pictures of our loved ones. When my mom passed and I found a video of her holding my daughter and having the biggest laugh. It just made me so happy. Sending continued prayers and strength to all that loved your brother. ❤️❤️❤️
My LORD, I listen to you all so often! My sincere condolences to the entire family. I would like to suggest (as though) someone hasn't already thought about some merch with the saying "Act like you're supposed to be here!" I would buy it and so would so many others. I do feel like I'm in the family. Thank you so much for loving us enough to share. Your fresh take on so many moments is LOVE personified.
This had me boohooing. Thank you for sharing this intimate moment of reflection with us. We all felt this because we really are family. I identify as the cousin in Atlanta. It’s so refreshing to see you all continue to be authentically human. Thank you, all of you are the most amazingly fierce people.
Bless y’all. I cried for 57 minutes, too. 🙏🏾😞
This made me so emotional. Losing a loved one is soooo hard. I have been there. My sincere condolences to you and your family.
Thanks for sharing these beautiful stories!!! May God continue to comfort you all!!
Congratulations on 100K subbies! Love the authenticity always ❤❤❤
My cheeks are WET! Im crying like Jason was my brother. Rest Well Jason.
Honestly sending prayers and peace and ease to your entire family. ❤❤
I am so sorry for you guys loss. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your process.
May the Lord provide you all comfort in the time. This conversation definitely makes me want to double down on capturing memories. Thank you both. ❤
My deepest condolences 🙏. I watched both podcasts. I cried and laughed so hard. I lost both parents within 3 months of each other. I acted the same looking at every detail and being strong for the family. You are never alone. Love 💘 you both.
We LOVE you and YOUR family SOOO very much. We thank you for sharing your world. We will continue to keep you lifted in prayer. We will continue to love on you. May God send all that you need every step of the way.
Love that you sent that email and she felt it !!
I remember the periscope days
Thank you for sharing. Our community we have built is grieving with you. Patreon, app or not this is a supportive group. What you shared helps to normalize grief as well.
Oh my. I am Kim Kardashian crying over here. Whew. Praying for your comfort in the future. RIP Jason.
Wow I cried through this whole thing 🥺😢
I held it together the whole time until Mel's speech to Liss at the end. That was so beautiful! 😭😭 RIH Jay 🤍
💔❤️
My Heart Goes Out to Your Entire Family. The Loss of A Loved One is Never Easy and You Are in My Prayers 🙏🏾 I just want to thank you for your vulnerability and transparency because grieving is never easy. We will continue to support you all ❤
Thank you both so much for sharing. Again thank you to Kev and Liss for sharing Jason with us. I will continue to keep your family lifted in pray. May God give you all the peace you need in these rough days. Love you guys 🙏❤️
People will show you their true intentions during times like this. When my dad passed away, one of the first calls I got was “hey sis. So sorry about your dad. But yeah…I’m working on a play and I was wondering if you could read it…” I literally moved to another whole state when my mom passed two years later so y’all wouldn’t see me on the news. Cause I WISH somebody woulda tried that…
Thank you for the trigger warning too. My brother was one of Jason’s biggest fans and he had to leave the room. And thank you for your openness and being transparent. I loved this episode SO MUCH! RIP Jason. We miss you ❤❤
oh... watching you recount the emotion of your email... tore my heart in two... im am so sorry for your loss... my wife and I seen him and said hey when you did the tour in houston... it was jarring when the news of his transition released... we ... my wife and I are praying for you and Kevin. Thank you for sharing your life with all of us. Be encouraged. We love you all.
I would have told that teacher off from Genesis to Revelation in Hebrew and Hieroglyphics 🤬. Long Live Jay ❤️
And Greek! 😤
Thank you for sharing your sunshines and rainstorms with us! Sending love, light your way!
Being there. Saw tears roll down my son face, and I sent a very NICE email. Oh the phone calls I received after that. I get it. My heart hurts for all of you. God Bless ❤️🙏🏾
I am sending my condolences to your family and extending the most significant, warmest hug to you all. May his memories carry everyone during this time and the days to come. 🙏🏾🤍
Thankful the teacher got it because I was instantly sacred for her and from your description she DEFINITELY got it.
Whew Liss!! I felt you on the audacity that some people have, especially the teacher! My God! This was real and raw!! Prayers to you all. 🙏🏽🤍
God bless his soul, thanks for sharing.
Ong. I love this episode! I was at the Essence Fest the same year. “Loss is different when you sit I n the front row,” Lauren London
You did GOODT Liss advocating for Jo! Awesome job! I'm glad the teacher owned it and realized that her "seasoned" self ain't perfect and to remain humble and not just assume stuff and take it out on students who are not able to defend themselves against "adults". GREAT JOB!!!!!!!
Love you guys. I'm so sorry for this devastating heartbreak. Losing a sibling is so wrong and unnatural. Thank you for sharing this moment and showing people how to carry grief together. May God's life giving and healing presence be a balm over the shattered places and a light in the dark moments
