My sons and I send wishes for healing during this time of grief to all who have lost him. Our deepest wish I'd that Dorian Jr. is aware of how much he is loved by the twins (Trent & Theo) and myself. We will always look outfit your son as long as he will keep us as his family. It breaks all hearts to see a mother lose a child, a son lose a father, and a family lose a dear one. Respect and love from Karen, Trent, and Theo.

My condolences to family and friends. It seems like we've lost another good one, but although he's gone he will always remain a brother to me. with a smile and eyes that could brighten up any room. A personality that could spark a flame in any heart. A man that could make you laugh so hard till you cry. Glad to have known one of the realest, coolest, funniest persons i've ever met. here is a candle in honor of you.
R.I.P. , My Brother

I want to send my condolences out to the family. I also want to say Terrell i miss you already. You were a great person and friend. You were there for me in my time of need ill never forget that. You are also the only person i know who can keep me on the phone for 2 hours and never run out of things to talk about. I will miss you cracking joke, trying to dance, watching movies with you, getting into long debates lol, playing cards and your not being afraid to talk about personal things but most of all i will miss those bright eyes and smile that even if i was having a bad day would turn things around. THANK YOU for what you did for me, THANK YOU for teaching me how to play poker, THANK YOU for giving me words of encouragement I love you, my kids love you and my family loves you. THANKS FOR BEING A FRIEND :( ***GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN*** From Rochelle to the SMOOTHEST!!!

Kisha I am very sorry for your loss. I know prayer cannot bring him back but it will help ease the pain. Just remember the good times you two had and be thankful that you do have memories to keep his spirit alive. Love you like a sister pray is all you can do. As a family you all have to be strong for his kids. May his soul rest in peace.
