    I had the opportunity to help out Faith Community for a year, and serve as a youth group leader. I was assigned to the the senior guys. Demetrius always had a smile on his face, brought great energy to the group, and was someone that I enjoyed talking with. He will be greatly missed!

    Prayers going up for the entire family.

    All love

    We were heartbroken to learn of his passing. He was a good friend to our son in the Sea Cadets, and even came down to our farm to visit last spring. He was a sweet, respectable young man. Our hearts go out to his family!
