Dewayne will be remembered for his warm personality, infectious laughter, sense of humor, and the love he had for his family and friends. One of his favorite pastimes was playing cards. He truly enjoyed gathering around the table with family and friends, sharing good food, laughter, jokes, and stories. He loved cooking, singing and creating special moments with those he loved. The memories made during those times will forever be treasured by his family and friends.
Dewayne leaves behind a lifetime of beautiful memories and countless people whose lives were made better simply because they knew him. Though he is no longer physically with us, his kindness, generosity, laughter, and love will continue to live on in the hearts of everyone who had the privilege of knowing and loving him.

The family would like to extend a special and heartfelt thank you to his mother, his brother John and sister-in-law Robin your love, support and efforts to ensure that he was cared for will always be appreciated and remembered.
Although Dewayne's earthly journey has come to an end, the love he shared, the laughter he brought, and the memories he created will live on forever. He will be deeply missed, lovingly remembered, and forever held in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.

My cousin's laughter, a shared delight, A bond that made the world feel light. Through childhood dreams and grown-up days, his spirit walked in countless ways. Wendell's memory lingers soft and strong, A song within his heart's own song. Though journeys end and time moves on, Your light within will always live on. Love ya, MEAN it! - Diane McIntyre

To my McIntyre Family, I will definitely miss Dewayne and all his TikTok videos,my conversations with him from time to time. Sending my prayers condolences and deepest sympathy to you all. I truly love you all.
Dear Family, I'm sorry to hear of the passing of your beloved Dewayne. I know that he is, and that he will be, greatly missed. But I pray in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, that our Heavenly Father will continue to comfort your hearts in the Kind and Loving Way that only He can as you daily lean on Him. Lean on Him, for He provides comfort in sorrow. Dwayne is DONE with the troubles of this world...no more pain...no more suffering...no more sadness...no more sorrow! ππ½There are some things that are soon to come upon this earth that Dewayne will not have to witness. May he rest in Peace. And may the hearts of you who loved him be filled with love, peace, and with warmth from your many memories of the gentle giant who was Mr. Dewayne McIntyre. If it is the will of YAH, we will see him again in Paradise. And as we await that wondrous day, may we keep in mind the following Words, found in the Word of God:
Revelation 21:4,5-KJV - And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. 5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new! And he said unto me, Write: for these words are faithful and true. - Revelation 21:3, 4
Come Lord Jesus!ποΈ I pray that we will all be ready for His Magnificent and Majestic Return! May we Repent, and turn from the sin that would so easily entangle us. May we turn to God, Who loved us so much that He sent His ONLY begotten Son to DIE for US, so that we might have eternal life! He loves us so. Jesus actually DIED a CRUEL death for us because of His Mighty Love for us! Shall we continue to live sinful lives, or will we turn from our sins and strive to live in a way that reflects our appreciation for all that God has done for us in order that we might have Eternal life? Let's make the right choice while we have time, before it's too late, and then let's pray for one another that we might run this race with endurance! Let's PRAY for one another, and may we help each other to get UP when we fall short in doing the will of God so that we can keep on faithfully running until the Coming of the Lord...the One Who loves us and Who is Faithful and True. Let His dying not be in vain. If I have wronged or hurt anyone, I pray your mercy and your forgiveness in the name of Jesus. And I forgive anyone who may have hurt or harmed me. We must forgive one another in order that we might be forgiven by God. Amen? And we must love one another. Let us not judge one another. For if we judge one another, we will be judged with that same judgment. Let's remove the "beam" from our own eye before we attempt to extract the "mote" or "straw" from the eye of our brother or sister. And let's encourage and remind one another of the fact that if we believe that Jesus is Lord, that He IS the Son of GOD, that He died for our sin, and that He has risen from the grave, and that He is now seated at the right hand of the Father, and that THIS life is not all there is, then we MUST repent, and turn or return to God. The gift that God gives is eternal life. I had no intention of writing all of this. My plan was to send a short message of condolence to the family. But I was compelled to say what I have said. And this may not be the platform for me to have done so. But what I have done, I have done. Please forgive. With love for you all, Mel π©·
