HIS STORY
Meet Deacon
Those who knew Deacon — called "Deek" by family and friends — knew a man who never asked whether someone deserved help. He simply stepped in and served.
At 33, he had found work that matched who he was. As a director at a nursing home, he was loved by residents and respected by colleagues, treating every person with dignity and kindness.
His time was far too short. His legacy continues.
