Dev , I think about you all the time , the great memories that we shared throughout the past 6 years. We learned a lot from each other food & bad, but one thing for sure we never gave up on each other. I knew since the day we became a couple there was no stopping us. I miss you dearly I know you’re looking down at me, making sure I’m okay & progressing in life. I think to myself every night while I held you in my arms why couldn’t I keep you here. What could I have done better. It hurts me but I know your in Gods hands & I know when you’re ready for me I’ll be right there with you where we left off. I love you forever Dev no matter what. Yours truly Nani 11’24’11

Shawndell and family: My deepest sympathy on your loss. I share this poem from Chris Abani to offer the power of memories and be Dreambuilders of Devin's life.

Dream Stealers.

Refuse to give in to it, the nothingness
that smears ice on your soul
numbing life out.
Unlike Peters from Calabar who died after 2 days,
screaming: "They stole everything!"
And they will if you let them:
memories, dreams, hope.

Dear Burney and Hopkins family, please accept my deepest sympathy for the loss of your beloved son Devin. It breaks our hearts when death separates us from the ones we love so much. The Bible reminds us that God sees our pain and sadness and has promised that soon, "death will be swallowed up forever."(Isaiah 25:8) He will heal our broken hearts by resurrecting our dear loved ones to life again. (Acts 24:15) May these promises from God comfort you in the days to come. If you would like to read the Bible online please visit JW.org.

Sincerely,
Carol M

Hi my name is Daian. My reason for writing it's just to say that I'm very sorry for your loss. These are difficult times but I'd would like to give you and your family some hope. In John 5: 28,29 says that "those in the memorial tombs will come out." In harmony with God's original purpose, the loved ones that come back to life will have the opportunity to live in a paradise earth (Luke 23:43) During these difficult times it's important to remember that everything God promises comes true. If you have any questions feel free to email me or visit jw.org.
