Denzel was one in a million. One of the nicest, kindest, most positive people I have ever had the honor of knowing, who ALWAYS had a smile on his face and a kind word for everyone. He was superbly talented in both his work and in lifting others up. Sincere condolences, thoughts and prayers to all his loved ones. To echo a sentiment already here, I too am better for having known him, as I believe is everyone who had that privilege. Heaven gained a beautiful angel, and while his time on earth was far too short, the legacy he leaves will continue to live on. Rest in peace my friend.

Denzel, you were amazing young man who was going to change the world and make it a better place. I'm so sorry your time was cut short, but just know, I 'm a better person because you were in my life. It was truly an honor to have known you. RIP
