My sincerest condolences to Destiny's family during this very difficult time. It was a pleasure to have Destiny on the team at Rite of Passage. She made a profound impact on the youth she worked with. She demonstrated tenacity balancing work and school. There was nothing she would not do for her cohorts or youth. She had a beautiful soul and bright future ahead of her. She is truly missed. Destiny will continue to live in our hearts forever thorough memories. Praying for the family and all lives she touched through her work.
People come into your life for reasons & during different seasons. I met Destiny @ work, and she was definitely a positive influence for all she encountered. Praying continually for her family that God gives you strength to endure the difficult days ahead.
MONTGOMERY!! That's what I used to call you. I knew you were special when you, your mother and sister walked into the Admissions office at Stillman for that campus tour. You were one of my first recruits and I'll never forget you. You were amazing, and forever will be. I remember being so proud everytime I'd see you accomplishing something. I'm happy that I got to tell you how proud I was of you, and I will always be proud!! Your spirit and name will live forever!!
Sincerely, Miss Whitney

My deepest sympathy to the familyππΎ
My deepest sympathies on the loss of Destiny Gardner. Ms. Gardner was a wonderful coworker and a lovely young lady. She was always a positive influence on the youths she worked with, being real with them and they all looked up to her. She was a vibrant and friendly person but took no nonsense from anyone. I had the pleasure of working with her. She has left us too soon and she will be greatly missed.
My deepest sympathies go out to the family and to all that were lucky to have met Destiny. The unexpectedness of this loss makes it all the more heartbreaking. Destiny was an amazing young woman and always brightened up the world wherever she was. I'm saddened by the passing of Destiny as the world has lost an exceptionally bright, loving and kind soul. My thoughts and prayers go out to you all.
My deepest sympathy to Destiny's family. May God continue to comfort and strengthen you all during your season of loss.
My heartfelt sympathy to the family at this sad time.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
