Davion enjoyed spending time with and checking up on his family. He was always the first to offer assistance if there was anything he could do to help. Davion enjoyed playing video games with his friends, which he took very seriously. He also loved cooking, baking brownies, going out bowling with his family and friends, travelling, making new memories and he had a love for money.
Davion was highly devoted to his family and friends but spent a lot of his time with his long-term girlfriend, Shatonia Anderson. Together they enjoyed taking trips, trying new restaurants, going on late night car rides, singing and dancing with each other, praying and watching their nephews and nieces.
Davion had a special love for his nephew Dakari. He would pick up his nephew and take him to get ice cream, shopping and to the park all the time where he loved to have Davion push him in the swing. Dakari named him "His Davion."
Davion had a lot of friends he hung out with, but he had a special group he did everything with from trick-or-treating to basketball to boxing to working jobs together.
