He is preceded in death by his mother, Mary Lee Duhart Lovett and survived by his father, Deacon John Claude Lovett, Jr. (Daisy); his siblings, Dr. Marilyn Denise Lovett Hampton (Jarvis), Miriam Darice Lovett Sasnett, Rev. Juanetta Lovett Brent (David), Malcolm Jamal Lovett (Sharhonda), other relatives and many friends.
