Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way. We send our Deepest and most Heartfelt Condolences to the Dash Family in this time of Sorrow. Loosing a Loved One is never easy. Remember, GOD has a Plan and a Place for Him.

Leon and I were very good friends. I hadn't seen him in years. On Sunday night July 29, 07 I was picking up my daughter from the Atrium. Leon approach me saying do you remember me, I said oh my God Leon Dash. Tonight at the viewing I was inform by his brother-in-law that I was the last female he spoke with that night. I want the family to know Leon was in good sprits that night with a big smile. My prayers and thoughts are with you all. God Bless

To the family & friends of Mr. Dash,
My deepest sympathy for the loss of your loved one.
My son, Larry Ferrol, Jr., played youth football with Damon. Larry also worked with Mr. Dash the last two Sunday nights and said he was a very nice man.
Condolences to all of you in this time of sadness.

I am so deeply sorry for your loss. May God keep and comfort you in this very difficult time. The pain may be great and the sorrow unbearable, but with Him all things are possible. Throw your burden on Him and let Him sustain you. May you all find peace in the knowledge that God will never leave nor forsake you. May your many memories of your loved one comfort you until you can meet again.

To the Dash Family:
It's always hard trying to find the right words to say to someone that has lost a loved one, I feel I have a moral obligation to say to you that everything is going to be okay, but right now I know it feels like it's never going to be alright. I can somewhat understand your pain, I almost lost my brother 3 weeks ago, but with many prayers his life was spared. I want to say to you how sorry I am for your loss, how I wish I had to right words to comfort your heart but in time I pray your pain will go away and you will be filled with the many memories of your brother, your son, your uncle, your father. My love you to Ms. Wade you have my deepest sympathy, I pray that you can continue to be strong for your family.
I love you all

To the Dash Family
If tears can build a stairway
And memories were a lane
Your family would walk up to Heaven
And bring Jr. back again
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
He was gone before you knew it
And only God knows why
Your hearts are still in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to loose a love one
No one can ever know
But now you know Jr. would want us
to mourn for him no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has so much in store
Since he will never be forgotten
I pledge with you today
That a hallowed place within our hearts
Is where Jr. will always stay
Our prayers, thoughts, and love are with you forever and always.

As I sit here and look at his picture, I start to reminisce about the days in the 70’s; at the skating ring. I remember how he would stand back and observed the crowd. My prayers and condolences go out to his entire family. To the family: In coming days when the tears start to flow just KNOW that GODs’ loving arms will be extended out to hold you when you feel as though you can’t go on, he will lift you up with his grace and mercy.
May GOD Bless,
