Katie, My heart is saddened after hearing about the transition of your beloved son, Demontray.I pray that God will strengthen you as you navigate this devastating season in your life. Psalm 34:18" The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saved those who are crushed in spirit."
My cousin, my brother. You always protected me, offered me advice , and simply were by my side. Nights in Pensacola I'll never forget, playing hide and seek as kids I'll never forget , family trips I'll never forget. I shed many tears thinking of our past. Love you Tray.
Demontray, All the fun times and great memories we shared I will hold close to my heart. Sadly Now our friendship has to continue apart. Our memories that we shared will Never depart. A True friend you were, will always and forever remain in my heart ❤️ Love you always 🫶🏾🕊️ Tip

You were my first best friend throughout Middle School, I always enjoyed the time we got to spend together playing basketball at each other's houses, staying up late night playing video games, clowning, etc. It was always love between us as we grew older and went separate ways, and nothing has changed now. Sad to hear you that are no longer with us, but I know you are in a better place. Til next time Montray, love 4L.
