Denise and Ellis raised Devren truly to be such a hard worker. He was the one that worked hard at everything he set his mind to. He loved being on the roof working with his papa.

An avid outdoorsman, Devren cherished his time huntin' and catfishin' with friends, and he took great joy in riding and working on his trucks, 4- wheelers, and dirt bikes.
