My prayers to the family of Rev .DeJan as he was a remarkable child of God. I am now 70 years old and was 19 when Rev. DeJan baptized me at the Antioch Baptist Church. May you all be comforted by his love for the Lord.

I worked with David for several years at the MCV Virginia Treatment Center for Children in Richmond. He was a dedicated educator and inspiration to all of us, and it was a pleasure had an honor to have known him to work with him.
