Devan was everyone's best friend growing up in Charlotte. He was the funniest kid around. Whenever I think of our childhood I think of playing football in Devan's front yard. We were young but the language tended to be more on the adult side! He was a key reason we have postive memories. I know he is now in good hands and watching over the ones he loves.

I am truly sorry for your loss. Devon and I grew up togther living across the street from each other. He was one of my best friends in the early years of school. Our families were good friends also. When we moved away and we lost touch. I have a lot of great memories of our times together camping out in the backyards, football games in the front yard these are times I will never forget. He will be missed by all who knew him. Our thoughts and praryers are with you.

I would also like to offer my sympathy at your loss. I'm glad that I also was able to see and talk with Devan at the reunion last year. We enjoyed talking over the old times. Back in high school at one point he and I both had a unicycle and would cut up at the K-mart PL hangout on them. He was a spirited and good guy you could rely on.

I am very saddened to hear of Devan's passing. He and I and numerous other people were close friends from junior high school and also during our high school days. Devan was always very popular and well liked by so many. We all mourn our loss yet at the same time we celebrate the times we had.

Devon was a great guy, a lot of fun and a great since of humor. I can remember on Sat. nites when we went out Devon picking everyone up in his van and making sure that everyone got home safe. He would always make sure that everyone was contacted and know of the plans and that nobody was forgotten.

I am very sorry for your loss and greatful for the time Devon was here.
