Darius L. Crowder

DEAR FAMILY OF DARIUS L. CROWDER, IT FILLS MY HEART WITH GREAT SADNESS IN HEARING OF THE DEPARTING OF YOUR BELOVED. I WORK FOR LAPORTE FORD DARIUS CAME IN AND BOUGHT A VEHICLE FROM ME IN MARCH OF 2003. AT THAT TIME WE HAD A BOND IT WAS LIKE A HOME-BOY YOU ALWAYS NEW. EVERYTHING ABOUT DARIUS WAS REAL. DARIUS NOTICE THAT I SMOKED AND HE THEN TOLD ME ABOUT HIS MEDICAL SITUATION AND WHAT SMOKING DID TO HIM. HE TOLD ME I SHOULD STOP SMOKING. ALTHOUGH I NEVER STOPED SMOKING I CAN REMEMBER THOSE...

Gerthie, I just want you and your family to know that I am constantly thinking and praying for you all. I know many have said encouraging words and even with that, it still does not take away the pain. I want you too know that if you need me, I am only a phone call away. I will continue praying for you and your family.

Gerthie and Family, please know my thoughts and prayers are with you. I pray that God take care of you all during this time and always.

I am sorry that I could not make the wake or the funeral since I was scheduled to be out of town. I have often thought how hard it is for a mother to watch her child in pain and suffering. Trell has found peace now. Hopefully, Gerthie, you and your family will too. As hard as it was to lose someone you love, especially a child, take comfort in knowing he is free.

Gerthie, May Trell's memory be a blessing. I know you were a devoted mother to him. May you be comforted with the mourners of Zion.

Gertie, please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. We miss you here on the block. Take care and let me know if you need anything.

Gerthie, My prayers are with you. I think about Trell's sweet smile and the fun twinkle in his eyes ... then how loving and protective of his mother he always is. What a blessing he will forever be! Love, Linda

GERTHIE AND NEESHA, JUST WANTED TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT I AM THINKING OF YOU AND ALSO PRAYING FOR YOU IN YOUR TIME OF SORROW SO SAD TO HEAR OF THE LOST OF (TRELL) HE WAS LIKE A BROTHER TO ME. (TRELL) YOU BE MISSED DEARLY LOVE ALWAYS SHATRILA, AND YOLANDA BRANDYBURG

I would like to let the family know that you are in my prayers. Daruis was a good friend of mine at Jack Yates High School. God has choosen a beatiful flower to place in his garden.Rest in peace and love always.
