He was my First cousin, More like a big brother, as we grew up in houses next door to each other. I will Love and miss him forever and hope his daughter (Dawn) reads this and calls me. Linda Knox Stettner. 603-498-3109

Devie was my first cousin. We grew up living next door to one another. He was my treasured "big brother" and protector. We were only about 6 years apart in age. I miss him ongoingly and will be truly blessed to see him in heaven

I wasn't able to know the man who is now in heaven but i had the opportunity to know his daughter Dawn and for that Dawn, thank you for being my sister and caring for my whole family and welcoming me into the family, I truly appreciate your kindness. They say we are a product of our parents and if your dad was anything like you he was a great man. He will remain an angel on your shoulder until he is ready to greet you in heaven above. So wipe your tears away and know that he will be with you...

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dawn and Mary - I am thinking of you with great sympathy and saying a prayer for your dad's delivery and comfort, and for you both, in that you are blessed by God.

Dev was a friend and coworker for many years. We shared a great joy in reading, and swapped many books over the years. Dev was a true patriot, and the service that he gave to his country was only exceeded by the level of friendship he gave. He will be truly missed! Fair winds and following seas Dev. May God bless you and your family now and always.
