Duck, words can't possibly express how devastated I am bro. I want to call you to ask how you're doing just so I can hear you say "same cup of soup, just reheated" one more time. So many memories in such a short time we've known each other. You truly left an incredible impact in the lives of your beautiful children, your entire family, everyone you came in contact with, the countless children you mentored who affectionately referred to you as Coach D and you certainly impactedmy life in a tremendous way. I thank God for bringing such a positive life force like you into my life. To the entire family, and especially to Darien's wonderful, sweet and loveable children, I send my most humble and deepest sympathy, love, support and condolences. Rest easy my brotha from another mother. You will forever be remembered, loved and missed D. ~Jeff Butts
