Marcerto:
With deepest sympathy to you and your family. God chose a young and beautiful flower to return home.
"Our Lord said unto him, `Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Thou hast been faithful over a few things; I will make thee ruler over many things. Enter thou into the joy of thy lord.'"
Matthew 25:21:
How beautiful to know that Deamonte is NOW watching over each of you.

My deepest condolences go out to the Driver family. I've only known Monte briefly, but he left a lasting impression on me. A child with such character could never be forgotten. May God grant you comfort in this time of bereavement.

Thank you all for your prayers and support during our time of loss. Monte, was a beautiful little boy with lots of promise. I do know that he's in a better place now and he's no longer in pain. He's looking down upon us with his smile and grace. Monte, your memories will live on. Love you, Aunt Key.

May God bless and keep the family in His' loving care. Just know all things happen for a reason but most important know that God is now and always will be in control. Time and prayer are the keys to healing pain. When the Lord calls our loved ones home, He leaves a gift of memories in exchange. Hold on to your memories and let them guide you during this time of sadness. God's love will make your grief bearable. You're in my thoughts, my heart, and my prayers.

Dear family,
I was so sad to hear about your loss from my mother Linda. When your son first got sick she told me about it and I was shocked to hear that something that we see as minor could cause such damage. As a mother I can only imagine the pain that you are going through. But as a sister I truely understand. There are no words that I can say to take away your pain but trust me time will help ease it. But that emptiness will remain with you always. Ask for God's help and he will give you everything that you need to get through each day.

Deamonte is with the Lord now -- he will never suffer or be without anything again.
I pray that Deamonte's family will receive strength from God and that someday they will find peace in knowing that Deamonte is in heaven.
We should all be aware that Deamonte is looking down on all of us.
Deamonte,
You will NOT be forgotten--I am going to make sure of that.
I know in my heart that you are "...absent from the body and ... present with the Lord"
(2 Cor. 5:8)
God bless YOU Deamonte!
