Devon was such a wonderful man, and as many have said, truly one of a kind. Always smiling and always said hello to me in the kitchen at work and took the time to ask me how I was doing. My sincerest condolences to his family. He will be missed. ❤

Devon although it had been years since I seen you last, I have so many memories of you from my younger years. One of my 2 favorite cousins was blessed to have found her soul mate and love of her life in meeting you. The other lucky enough to call you her brother in law. You were an amazing man, husband and father/uncle and had such love for your friends and family who held you in such high regard because of the genuine man you were. There is a hole that will never be filled by your absence, however there will be some solice in knowing that you are watching down on the family protecting all of us from heaven. Rest in peace Devon, much love.
