Delonte, I'm still shell-shocked two weeks later. I find myself looking out the window everynight or whenever I hear a car stereo, knowing it's you and Janae. I wonder why I wasn't around that night, and what would've happened if I was. I love the BOTH of you'll dearly, and my memories will live until we meet again. I got your mother and family with whatever they need whenever they need it. And I'll be sure to keep an eye on Deja as she goes through her teenage years :)
From your 5024 family (Kelle, Ike, and Keyonna)... we missing you!

Dear Traci and Family, I am in shock to hear of DJ's passing. Our son, Harold Coleman, was in the Lanham Boys and Girls Club with him. He was a delight and we truly loved him and all the boys. Please just take one day at a time and take delight in all that he added to your lives. Love you.

RIP,DJ.. There is a heaven for you.. I have and will always LOVE you.. John 11:25-26 reads: "Jesus said to her "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?" I do... Until we meet again..
