He was a talented skateboarder and could be seen skating on his half pipe to entertain his brother Austin.

He had studied hard to obtain his CDL permit and was looking forward to driving truck. Devin previously held positions in landscaping, concrete and sealcoating. Devin’s meaning of hard work and love transformed with the birth of his daughter Delilah “Woogie”. He was forever changed and made a commitment to strive to be the best father and provider for his children. He was ecstatic to learn of his son Jaxton’s arrival in July 2020. Devin’s outgoing nature made it easy for him to make his way in this world. He enjoyed coffee runs while cruising and listening to music with his sisters.
