Jama Caroline Drenning, 51, of Goose Creek, SC passed away on Monday, October 21, 2024.
Born on March 1, 1973 in Columbus, OH, she was the daughter of Debra Drenning Kelly and Kevin Kelly.
Jama Drenning was a sweet, caring soul who lived a simple life with her favorite pup, Chacho, listening to country music and enjoying the weather. Jama was a loving, strong, independent, caring, die hard Buckeye! She was a phenomenal momma to one perfect son and acted as a mom to many, many children. Jama fiercely protected her brothers no matter how old they all became. And of course, you didn't know Jama without knowing her shadow, Chacho. Chacho was the only male she could tolerate sharing a bed with. Jama had a way with children. She could relate, teach, dream, play, and guide with nothing but love in her heart! Jama made friends with everyone and made you feel welcomed. She took great care of her family and kept them tight-knit.
Jama is preceded in death by her grandparents, Anna and Joe Kelly and Robert Drenning and her uncles, Bobby, Danny, and Willy.
Jama is survived by her parents, Kevin and Debra Kelly; her son, Devin Payne; her grandmother, Georgia Drenning; her brothers, Shawn Jessie and his wife Mysti, Mark Stepp and his wife Alejandra, and Ricky Stepp and his wife Charity; her nieces, Mary Ann, Victoria, Jocelyn, Ellah Rose (her Little Booger), and Isbella; her nephews, James, Jayson, and Michael; her great niece, Raina; and her aunts, uncles, and cousins that are stretched far and wide, as well as friends too abundant to name.
The family will receive friends on Thursday, October 24, 2024 from 11:00am to 1:00pm at McAlister-Smith Funeral & Cremation, 896 St. James Ave., Goose Creek, SC 29445.
