Devon and I shared many adventures together in his short time on this earth. I was really looking forward to many more. Devon was very smart, had a great personality, had charisma, was full of life and had a great future ahead of him.

My dear sweet Devon then lost his battle with addiction.  He was doing great but had a relapse and then it was over. He did not listen to the people who tried to help him. Others led him into a dark hole that he was fighting to climb out of but could not.  He was only 23 years old.

If your loved one is struggling, get them help immediately! If they say it is not that bad don't listen to them. If they say they are doing fine, they are not. Please get them help. It will be a battle but get them help!

Devon, please remember, you will be sadly missed and you were really loved. Rest in peace. I love you buddy.
