Carrie, So sorry for your loss. Just to let you know our thoughts are with you !!
Devin had that X factor that would have taken him anywhere his heart desired.
Devin just recently came into my life and with him he brought that extra little something that we all wish we had in ourselves.
Animated effervescent and exuberent, his smile contagiously made everyone around him smile and feel better about themselves.
We were all very saddened to hear of the loss of Devin. He will be sadly missed by his cousins, Joshua and Jacob.
My god bless your family in your time of need.
Love,
Kathy,Thomas,Jason,Al
Shavon and Isaiah.
My god bless you all,
Tough times don,t last
But
Tough people do.
God Bless,
Love Pudgy,Terry,Brandon
and Christian.
It’s hard to believe your gone, Devin. I still remember when you were that little twerp, who was always giving that devil smile and would follow us around. You know “Aunt” Judy is up there and she’s going to take care of you. After she kicks your butt around for being up there in the first place! We’ll all see you again when it’s our time to be there. Much love!
You will be sadly missed Devin. I met you when we were younger and lost touch but I will miss your outgoing personality.
Our thoughts are with you during this devistating time.
Peace
Sympathies to the Beach Family. I have come as Devin’s elder sister (28) of our Father, Neal S. Rice Jr. to send my love. Although I’ve lost the opportunity to connect and build a relationship, still, and always will keep Devin in mind at heart to my end. – Angele’ck
YESTERDAY,
I lived bewildered,
In illusion.
But now I am awake,
Flawless and serene,
Beyond the world.
From my light
The body and the world arise.
So all things are mine,
Or nothing is.
Now I have given up
The body and the world,
I have a special gift.
I see the infinite Self.
As a wave,
Seething and foaming,
Is only water
So all creation,
Streaming out of the Self,
Is only the Self.
Consider a piece of cloth.
It is only threads!
So all creation,
When you look closely,
Is only the Self.
Like the sugar
In the juice of the sugarcane,
I am the sweetness
In everything I have made.
When the Self is unknown
The world arises,
Not when it is known.
But you mistake
The rope for the snake.
When you see the rope,
The snake vanishes.
My nature is light,
Nothing but light.
When the world arises
I alone am shining.

It’s been 10 years this coming July since you left us and I’m still shocked at how you went. Anyone who knew you couldn’t of predicted you going that way. You were such a one of a kind person you had the biggest heart and kindest smile you were always so happy singing and making people laugh. A part of me died with you thst day. We were so close we fought like siblings yet always knew we loved each other. I wish you knew how many people truly loved you. I wish more than anything you were here so I could hig you and tell you how much I love you and miss you ??. I remember this one night I was so sick and you came over and stayed with me to keep me company and helped me get through that sleepless night, I will always remember that. I know your in a better place but I want to be selfish and for you to be here today! You may be gone from this world but your bright smile and beautiful voice lives in all our hearts and forever it will. Gone but not forgotten! ?? I love you baby cuz.
