Not sure what to say?

You will be missed as a shipmate and a friend. We grew up into the men we would become overseas and had great times. You were a reliable friend, good natured, and fun to be around. I can't believe we met all those years ago in Virginia, then served in Japan together, and then San Diego. Honestly, I was saddened when you decided to move home to Alabama. I remember the day you told me and you said it was to be closer to your mother and family. That was the type of man you were - deeply...

ms.pearlie and family i am so sorry for your lost, although it is a gain for god, i still remember that time he was in singapore we use to write each other and he would send me gifts, i still have those letters. i will forever miss him, he was a big brother to me. i'm just sad that i didnt get a chance to say goodbye. but dont be sad cause now he can patrol heaven.

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

I remember you from Huffman as a fun-loving person that was always quick with a smile. You were a fellow officer of my mother's at the BPD, and I never knew it until it was too late. When I called after hearing of your passing, she also had many good things to say about you. My condolences go out to you and your family.

I see tears fall down your face

When your thoughts have turned to me.

Just know that I’m in heaven,

With my Lord, who’s set me free.


No pain or sadness do I feel,

For God is by my side.

The beauty here in Heaven

Is now where I reside.


I know it’s hard for you to cope

For you can’t feel my touch.

But every moment, I can see

And love you very much.


When you are at your lowest

And feel you...

To Pearlie and Family:
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Words can't express the loss that I know all of you feel within your heart. Mrs. Perlie and Henry please don't weep you both raised Desmon to be a Great Man. I will miss his signature smile and the laughter that we shared. Quet, Lesia and Genetta. May the Lords strength be your comfort.
Your sister,
Kanika

Desmon you will truly be missed by your daughter Makayla and her mom. I remember all the times you came to my house to see Makayla you would watch the game or fall asleep with Makayla by your side. I feel your family's pain because it seems like losing a love one never gets easy to accept. Family just know that GOD is in control, trust in him and all your days will be brighter. Dez we know you are heaven as a Guardian Angel watching over Tyler & MaKayla making sure they are ok at all times....
