TGBTG....To the family of John Davis (aka: DUDE) I offer sincere condolences and words of comfort. I prayed for him continuously, could not connect with him, but kept him uplifted. Dude had a kind heart, he was a good person. He said we were family, so I let him have that because I don't know. Take your rest Dude Davis, there will be no more tears. To the family...be well. ❤️
Much love, Patricia Dent
May you rest in Heaven. You will be missed by everyone who knew you. Calvin and Karla
