DeShawn a truly genuine person. You will be missed. I’ll miss the fun times, crazy chats, and big brotherly advice you have given me. I promise to adhere to some of what you’ve advised me on. Thanks for the great memories you’ve given my kids and I. They were heartbroken to hear of your passing. You were one of the great ones and we know your humble and kind spirit lives on through your family and friends. Rest easy my friend. Until we meet again
