Damion got his two wings on Friday September 17,and he is flying all over heaven watching over you and saying,don"t cry I am always with you,as long as you keep me in your heart I'm still here.

Shari, Arvella, Schacorya, Albert T, and the rest of the family: Please find comfort in knowing that I am grieving with you. Damion was like a little cousin to me. I watched him grew from elementary to adulthood. The last time I saw him was at Schacorya's wedding. I will never forget that big smile he gave me. Shari, you did a great job with both boys. My family and I will continually pray for your strength and healing.

Things happen that sometimes we do not understand, we often want to question wht God has taken our loved ones home. He only picks the best flowers to grow in His garden...Although it was sudden and most of us dont understand we have to know that when its our time, when God feels as though He is ready...we must go home...although we would rather have him here,Damion is indeed in a better place! To my lil sister Donna, remember what I told you...Damion knows you love him and he holds no regret in his heart for you..He may be gone in the flesh but he'll always be in the spirit and most definately in your heart...Keep your head up because thats what he would want...Remember only the strong survive..I am here no matter when or what time...thats what sisters do...
