I want to express my sincere condolences to the family. Growing up in southside Richmond, our families (Archer & Ragsdale) lived next door to each other. Damon & I played together outside almost everyday or we were helping out at the daycare at New Covenant in the summer. Much love to Ms. Diane, Mr. Houston & Meechi.

Diane this is hard to hear. I am truly sorry for your loss. Damon in his early years use to be at my house all the time. I treated him like one of my own. To his children babies i dont know what to say but just know God is with you all. Just lean on Him.

Im certainly going to miss "Buckeye" as the family called Damon jokingly because of his "big eyes" ....I'm definitely going to miss his strong hugs and that smile especially during holidays as he says "Hey Auntie" like he was so so happy to see me ♥ ♥ ♥....I love you Damon and I'm praying that we will meet again, some sweet day in Jesus Holy Name, Amen.
To my sister Diane his mother, "Hold To God's Unchanging Hands"!!!
To Houston his father, Trust in Him Who will never leave You.
To his siblings and beautiful daughters and handsome sons and the sons he help to rear.... listen!!!... "Hold to God's Unchanging Hands"... Amen and Amen!!!
