On behalf of the Dalcour family, our hearts and prayers are with you. Xavier was so awesome and caring. I remember when we were neighbors on Boyd Ave in Gulfport and he used to call me his little sister. Just remember at the end of your life you will never regret not having passed one more test, not winning one more verdict, nor not closing one more deal. You will regret time spent with a husband, a freind, a child, or a parent. We will miss Xavier. God bless!!

I have known Xavier for many years and remember the wonderful smile he had and how if you were feeling down his sense of humor and smile would pick you up and just make you feel better. I know you are missing him but as long as you keep Xavier's memory and his legacy alive he will forever live in your hearts and in the hearts of everyone that loves him. My prayers are with you and when you feel all alone remember look to the hills because all your help comes from the Lord. He's a great man that will truely be missed.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
