Devon was an absolute joy and a blessing to know. His kindness and compassion to family and friends was one of his best qualities. Devon never met a stranger. His smile and laughter were infectious. He was always willing to help others wherever or whenever the need arose.
He made us very proud to be his aunt and uncle. Devon, you will be greatly missed. Thank you for your love.

My parents and Devon´s were best of friends when we were little kids. I have so many memories of our families getting together for taco nights or going out to Ivanhoes for ice cream. Devon and I always had so much fun playing and getting into mischief together. He was such a sweet kid, I wish we had gotten to know each other as adults. Sending love and prayers to his family, my heart breaks for you all.
