The East Texas native took to his Instagram to confirm the passing of his sister with a beautiful tribute.

My heart is shattered into a million pieces... my beautiful loving sister Deondra has transitioned... I say transitioned because she will always be alive... anyone who knew my sis... knew that she was a bright light... I can’t tell you how many times we have had parties at the house where she has got on the dance floor and stolen the show.

Jamie continues his tribute by saying DeOndra you have left a hole in my heart, but I will fill it with all of the memories you gave me.

I can relate to Jamie's pain because five weeks ago today (September 22nd) I lost my grandmother and even though I have plenty of memories and photos the pain of her not being here is a pain that will take a while to get over.

Cherish your loved ones and continue to give them their flowers because you have no idea when it will be your last and I am thankful that Jamie got to express that to his sister.

Our thoughts and prayers are going out to his and his family.
