I was so sad to hear that my old friend and classmate had transitioned. I've been hoping to make contact with her for some time. I remember Daphne being the cutest and sweetest person. She always had a smile on her face. Until we meet again beautiful. Doris McLamb Class of 87 Clinton High School

My girl she was the sweetest young lady I've ever known. I have known her since she was in pig tails. A true Christian and loving to everyone. My heart is broken and I am so saddened I'm so lost for words except I love you forever and always. Goodbye until we meet again in the next life.

My Beautiful Friend and Spiritual Sister... my mind goes to our last meal together in the hospital when I came to visit you and YOU insisted to order ME a pizza because I said I had not eaten dinner. Tears for your kind heart. Always giving always loving.... I will always hold you close to my heart forever!❤️❤️❤️ Lady Tammy Perry

My heart is so broken. What an angel she was. She loved her family so deeply. Lord, I wish I could be there to show my support. When I attended the City she always came with a hug, encouraging words and that big beautiful smile. Plz know I send my prayers and love. Plz tell her mother said I'm pray for you all and your strength. So hard to believe. God Bless you and the famiy. I'm sending my love and prayers from Columbia, SC Angela Davis
