Not sure what to say?

I was sorry to hear about your loss Mrs. DeVoe and family. I wrestled on Coach Devoe's first team at WC. Mick was an outstanding coach and inspiration to me. He was also a great roll model and instilled in me a confidence which I have carried on through my life. Our prayers are with you.

I taught high school for 35 years, and I'm not sure I ever came across too many people who influenced the lives of more students than Mr. DeVoe.

Mick inspired me to purse work in the construction industry and now a successful 30 plus years in the electrical industry. Blessed to have known him and will see him again. God Bless

Merrie sorry for your loss Mick will be missed

Deepest sympathy to Mary, and family. I am Mick's cousin. My dad was Keith DeVoe, Kenneth DeVoe's twin brother. I was not aware of all of Mick's. Accolades, but do remember he was a great football player, and the fun times at family gatherings. RIP Mick
