And a host of many other relatives & friends.
Gone from us that smiling face,
the cheerful pleasant ways.
The heart that won so many friends
in previous happy days.
A beautiful life of kindly deeds
a helping hand for others’ needs.
He died as he lived, everyone’s friend.
But God knew he was getting tired,
so He whispered, “Come to Me,”
and granted him eternal rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us,
He only takes the best.
The Prince, Harris, & Anderson families wish to extend their sincere gratitude to all those who have supported us during this time of loss. Your expressions of sympathy and acts of kindness are deeply appreciated. (May God bless each of you). If you remember a special moment you and DeVonn shared, (a joke, a smile, a hug, if he was there for you when you needed him most), it may help you and us, if you would post it on the “Guestbook” tab.
