My condolence goes out to Dorian and his family.He truly was an intelligent young man, who made me laugh every time we had chemistry class. It's always unfortunate to see anyone leave the people that are so dear to them. May the lord be with you Dorian and your family.

Kim, Steve, Paige and Forrest,



There are no words that can describe how sorry I feel for your loss. Dorian was a wonderful young man with a heart of gold. Our loss here on earth is heavens gain. We MUST keep our faith so that when it is our time, we will see Dorian again with The Father. I want you all to know that I will always be here for you if there is anything I can do. I have been truly blessed to have known you all as neighbors and friends. Remember...Dorian is okay now, and he would want you to be okay too. You know he was that kind of guy. Love to you all,



Marci

Dorian,

You will always be missed. I don't even know where to start. If I begin to list all the fun times we had together I would be here all day. You were really a true friend and brother to me. Always there to listen when I had a problem. I will miss passing by your house and you standing outside and flagging me down. Dorian I Love you and know you're in a better place. I'll see you again one day and we will have even more fun.

From the Sims and Killings family, you will always be missed in our heart, thanks to my cousin, Patricia, we was able to meet you and get to know you. Dorian was such a funny person especially when him and my cousin Patricia was at the movies one night, they was going back and forth talking junk to each other, it was so funny. What I like the most was the fact that he didn't act shady toward the family, he was always around. You will be forever missed.

To Ms.kim, Forrest, and paige, I love and care for you all as if you were my own family. Dorian was a nice, sweet, caring, and loving person, that's what I will miss most about him. I have spent a lot of times with you guys; I remember when all of us was singing on the karaoke machine together on christmas last year, everybody was happy and enjoying themselves. Everytime Dorian and I used to ride together somewhere, he would always say "Patricia, you so gangsta, you always be listening to that hard core music". Dorian, I am going miss you so much, I will cherish every moment we spent together, you will always be in my heart. Despite everything we went through, you will always be apart me. Rest in peace.

My condolences are to the family that lost such a sweet child. I olny knew "D" from ridding the bus home and around he would speak. He always talked about getting his car and what not. I know that he is missed here at JHS. Their will never be another "D" with his big and beauitful eyes.

To The Brown Family, I knew Dorian through my best friend, Patricia, I am the one who hook them up together at Golden Corral, he was so scared to ask for her number, so I helped him out and they got together. Dorian was a very nice and sweet person and when he started going out with Patricia, his eyes would glow his smile was so beautiful. I know Patricia made him happy, just like he made her happy. I will always remember you Dorian, love Michelle.

To the family of dorian

"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

St.John 14:26-27

Dorian was a good person inside is were his light came from and he had a very special spirit.



A MILLION TIMES

A million times we've needed you

A million times we've cried

If love alone could have save you,

You never would have died.



In live we loved you dearly

In death we love you still

In our hearts you hold a place

No one could never fill.



It broke our hearts to lose you,

But you did not go alone;

For part of us went with you

The day GOD called you home.

Dorian,

I want you to know that you will truely be missed. We only spent a couple of months together, but many years as friends. Everytime we were together, you made me smile, laugh, and made every moment memorable. Your were a friend that everyone would wish for, and a friend that can never be replaced always remember that. Not only did you touch my life but you touched the life of my son. He loved being around you and loved watching SPIDERMAN with you! I'm going to end this with saying that I love you Dorian, and you will always have a place in my heart. We'll miss you SPIDERMAN!!!

While I didn't quite get to know Dorian as many of my friends did, I was close enough to see the good heart in him. I am sad to see such a bright light leave this place, but I'm that much happier that it will shine in a place that's eternal. My condolences to the family and all who are touched by this loss.

To the Brown's Family,

I've known Dorian for almost a year and that's thanks my closet friend Patrica. When Dorian and Patrica started going out I've seen a whole new side to my friend, she was more open and confident about her emotions and that was because of Dorian's affectionate and fun-loving personality. "never be scared to say how you really feel..it's what makes you who you are.." was what Dorian told me one night. It was at that moment when i realized how very special a person he was.Everyone who had a chance to interact with him got a chance to learn a little more about themselves...we need more of those special people. God's Richest Blessings to his family.

Dorian I love you with all my heart, I know you are in a better place. I will never forget the fun that we always had, I miss you! I am not going to cry, but rejoice that you are now with God. There is a place in my heart for you always and forever!

Love always, Keosha

Dorian, being able to experience your presence was a pleasure. At first,I didnt know you very well except when I saw you in the halls, and being in government class with you. Come to find out, you were really cool people with my boyfriend, and from then you would always speak when we crossed in the hallway or I saw you in class. You would always say "Tell my boy I said whats up." You made everyone laugh and kept the class interesting when no one seemed to be paying attention to the teacher. Especially in our 12th grade government class. I will always remember your smile. Keep smiling Dorian. We'll miss you.

My boy Dorian- i can remember the days back in middle school (McNair) when we roamed the halls together runnin from teachers, it all seems like it just happened yesterday. Time went on and we both went to high schools in different places-even with the distance and loss of contact- you were still my boy. In 11th grade, came to find out that we stayed right around the corner from each other. We chilled sometimes (not nearly enough) and you were so excited when i told you that i had got a "full ride" to school that day infront of your house while we were playing basketball and i always told you that when i made it big- that you were going to be beside me, chillin. "Do it big", that was our mind frame. Not long ago, i came home on a break from school and rode past your house- i saw you go in and didn't bother to stop. You know i figured that i'd see you again not knowing that would be my last images of you. I'm sorry. You will always be in my heart and the shirt that i wear under my pads will always read "Do it big- Dorian". i don't know any other way to say that i'm going to miss you. Wait on me in that "Good Place" and just know that i'm going to be back with you one day "chillin". Everyday, i look up i see you and my cousin Tekoah- smiling down on me and watching me-and everyday i look up and say whats up- just like you were still beside me. And that's how it will always be.

And to his family, i'm sorry for your loss. Dorian would have been a great addition to anyones family but you all were blessed to have him as apart of yours. I'm sorry that i never took the time out to actually meet you all but i heard alot about you. maybe one day in the future i will have the pleasure. Your son was one of the only "true friends" that i had from my middle school. Dorian will always be missed. God Bless.

Miss Kim, I would like to say that you raised a boy into a magnificent young man. Dorian, was a positive, happy and lovable person. Just on last week I went to see him and Asay he was so excited.. hugging on me. I remembered saying "dang Dorian, I just saw you a day ago." He said "I just wanted to hug you Boo, you my family." That made me realized how happy of a person he was. I'm greatful that he came into my little cousin's life for a brief moment.. I told Asay, even though GOD gave you two a few great months to thank him for that. He made her happy and that made me happy. I miss him already.
