Obituary for Demetrius Devon Mix

Demetruis Devon Mix was born March 18, 1985, to Kevan C. Harvey and Paula J Jackson. Demetrius departed this life on Saturday, September 9, 2017, at his home surrounded by family and friends.

Demetrius attended Baldwin County High School. He united with Zion Fountain AME Church in Stockton, Alabama at a young age under the leadership of Reverend Richard Dockery. He enjoyed going to church and did not mind giving praises to God wherever he went. Demetrius had many joys in life; his family, his friends, church, and singing. Demetrius visited churches around the community lifting his voice in praise even after his health began to fail. Demetrius was a bright spot in the lives of everybody he came in contact with and he had a smile for everyone. He will truly be missed by all who loved him.

Demetrius did not want anyone crying, grieving, or feeling sorry for him. He comforted others until he answered God’s eternal call.
