I absolutely adored Dustin. He was such a good friend and brother to Kevin. We had so many good times in Gadsden and in Nashville. He will be deeply missed. All of the Humphrey family will continue to be in my prayers. I miss Dustin greatly, but I know it doesn't compare to the loss this family is experiencing. I love you all very much. ~Leslie
