During Nipsey’s memorial service, Lauren took the podium during the emotional celebration of life and began by asking the audience to bare with her. “Never was I prepared for anything like this,” she said.

She then read a text message she had sent to her beau in January. “Ermias, I’m in bed with you while you’re sleeping and I wanted to tell u something. I want you to know I feel real Joy in my heart when I’m around you. I feel safe around you. Protected. Like a shield over me when you’re around.

I am totally myself with you because I don’t wear a cool mask anymore lol. You’ve made me into more of a woman. You’ve given me an opportunity to really love a man. You’ve been with me while I’ve been sick. Through my fears. U have encouraged me and inspired me to reach higher.

I’ve learned so much more about myself with you. You’ve been my turn up and my church. I wouldn’t want to go thru this journey with anyone but you. I look up to you in a lot of ways and strive to educate myself more like you have. And when we’re at odds, I feel defeated and sad, knowing we are so much better than that.”
