Our thoughts & prayers are with you at this time. Devin was such a special man. I remember times when he would call us & disguise his voice to try to trick us. He had me going for a few minutes too. God will carry you through this. When we love someone they are always in our hearts. Let us know if there is anything we can do. We love you always.
