DJ I have known you for almost 20 years. I remember so much history with you in it. You were special and had a light within you that I've never seen before. U were just special no one could be sad around you you just had a way of making ppl laugh even if they didn't want to. I'm grateful for the memories I do have. I'm grateful I know one day I'll see you again. It's hard because I have so many things I want to say but it's hard to put it to paper. But you knew my heart and you knew how i felt. Til we meet again. I love you still, always will!!!

Whenever I met DJ he was the loudest person in the room!!! I loved it, he was always so outgoing and had a smile that could light up the entire town! Knowing DJ was an honor. Im so happy that I got to see him at the beginning of the new year... youre going to forever be missed! I remember you got in the car a couple weeks ago I had on some old old music and you said turn that up for a minute thats my jam and belted out every word to Im real by ja rule.

When I met DJ, he was a short fellow but a short fellow with a big heart. Every time we seen each other it was a laughing fest. DJ not only made me smile at times but a lot of other people who came in contact with him. I remember when we stayed with one another, he always use to order a med or large sausage pizza from Papa John's with a mountain dew. I can go on and on about DJ he was my friend and brother at the same time. How can I forget the freestyles, DJ will freestyle until there is no more freestyling. I been missing my friend and brother since the day I found out the tragic news and will forever be missing him until we meet again some day. From friend to friend brother to brother DJ I ask u watch over us all now. In God's name I pray amen......

Dj there are so many things I want to say...it would take hours and not enough computer hard drive in the world to even begin to express how special you are. Your heart was always full of pure goodness even through every trail and tribulation you endured. You had more strength then any one man I know, and you had such a huge impact on every person u met. I dont think one person who knew you didnt like you. Your irreplaceable and a soul that will be thought about and missed every day. Fly high baby boy, I loved you then. I love you now. And Ill love you forever.

DJ was and has always been my brother. He came into our home and changed our life. He would have always had our back no matter what... They say blood is thicker than water. I disagree. He was just as much family as it gets. I don't have much to say.. what do you say? But I know he's up there holding his rosary looking down on us. I love you DJ.. Mom, Dad, Hallie, Kadyn, and even Diamond. You will forever and always be in our hearts.
