Mr & Mrs Locke My name is Dorron Hunter and Davey and I were roomates for 3 of the 4 years he was there, and I have so many memories of him that I don't know where to start. Davey was one of the niciest Young Men I've ever met and we really Loved each other. He had a SMILE of his own. One weekend we all went to my Mother and Father's house to sing for my Father's Birthday. It was about 25 Football Players., and we slept on the floors in bed rooms in the Kitchen in the basement butwe all had a great time. One thing about Davey he always read his Bible from the time I met him until the time he left Morehead. My PRAYERS and thoughts are with you and your Family. You all should be PROUD you did a GREAT JOB WITH DAVEY LOCKE!!!!!

To the Davey Locke family, I was hopefully a good friend of Davey's through his 4 years at Morehead State U. We played football together and Davey and I shared many stories of his growing up in Belle Glades. I will miss his booming laugh and sincere sense of family and friends. Every football player knew and loved Davey and his passing saddens us greatly. We will keep him in our hearts and you in our prayers. God Bless each of you.
