To the Wilson Family: I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't begin to imagine the pain you must be feeling. But God is an awesome God and I pray that through His love you will find strength and through His grace you will find peace.

ME-ME,
May God comfort You and your family at this time. D'Joir enriched your life and all those he touched. When you fill like you can't go on remember "Your life is richer because D'Joir lived" He made deposits into your family that no one not even death can take away. Cherish those deposits because your son helped make you who you are now in your life's journey; his legacy will still help you grow and it will always effect your life and the lives of those around you.
I can't be there yet I wanted you to know Tellius and I are praying for you.

My daughter was one of D'Joir's classmates this year at Cone Elementary and I had the pleasure of meeting him on Field Day. I know that he will be missed by family and friends. To the mother and father --words can never fill your empty void, but please know that Jesus can and he will if you only allow him. It is my prayer that you two and the entire family will be comforted by the Holy Spirit from now and forever.
People say they’re sorry,
And they mean it from the heart,
But to understand your heartache,
They couldn’t even start,
To have a loss like you have had,
Is too much to understand,
We see it and we feel for you,
But it’s only secondhand,
You’re the ones who are suffering,
And we’re the ones who care,
But if there’s anything we can do,
Call us, we’ll be there.
Please know that should you need anything do not hesitate to reach out.
Brook Jones and her family

D'Joir was very special to me and I thank God for giving me the chance to know him and work with him the last two years. He was a joy to have in my class and I always looked forward to seeing him. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers as well as the thoughts and prayer of the East White Oak Church family. My God bless your family.

Djoir will be missed greatly. As his 3rd grade teacher I had a chance to enjoy Djoir on a daily basis. His infectious smile and loving spirit will be remembered for all time. D'joir has touched a special place in my heart, that only he holds. My condolences go to all of his family and friends. You all will be in my prayers.

To the Wilson family: I am so sorry for your loss!! I hope that you guys know that you had the pleasure of having him for a short period of time. God is always with you, during the good times and bad. He is with God now with no pain, suffering and worries. God will take care of him for you until you meet him again. May God bless you and the family
