I was Devon's English teacher in his 8th grade year at Christa McAuliffe. My heart was sadden as my eyes came in contact with the picture of the handsome young man that I remembered oh so well. Devon was a student that any teacher would love to have. My prayers are with the family. God grant you peace and strength.

To Ms. Angela and family, remember It's not goodbye, just see you later. Some days and nights will be hard, but He said He will not leave you comfortless. I know, you know about calling on the name of Jesus, you can find comfort in that name alone. I love you !

I have known Devon since middle school. He was a very sweet and calm person. He is in a better place now where all his troubles and worries are at ease. To the family, keep your head up and pray. Prayer is much powerful than you will ever know. It's going to help you get through the tough times as well as the healing process. May God Bless!

I would like to start by saying that I am very sorry for your loss. Devon was one of the best friends that I had and I loved him very much! Everyday I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to know him. I know that the thing I will miss the most about Devon is his smile. He had a smile that could light a room. Devon was a really wonderful person and he will be missed very much.
