My Son. My Friend. Always fun, generous, loving, and kind.
What fond memories I have of Drake. I can remember seeing him for the first time in his baby crib. I remember how cute he was as a little boy, and how amazed I was in seeing him grow into a loving and devoted husband, father, and son. My memories of him will last a life time. Visiting him and Paula in Colorado Springs,with Rita and Danielle, still remains my most memorable and best vacation. Our love for Drake lives on in loving his family. God's Blessings. . .

My husband Donnie and I first met Drake and Paula in Germany, almost 20yrs ago. Drake had such a humble and peaceful spirit, and such an absolute pleasure to be around. We miss you so much Drake. But our hearts are at peace knowing you are resting in the bosom of Jesus. We love you:)

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

Not a day goes by that I don't see his picture hanging up at work. Sometimes I stop and just look for a moment. I have never forgotten him. Our motorcycle rides will always be special and I will never forget his great smile and wit. I believe we will see him again some day...

Our friend Drake, You will always be in our hearts, mind and prayers. I always ask God to keep and eye over your little girl and Paula for I know how much you still look after them. We will always remember you love and devotion to your family. How that was your first priority.

Drake,

I remember your gentle smile and how much you loved Brianna and my sister Paula.

I think of you whenever some new computer or eletronic invention comes out and how we use to talk about that kind of stuff together. You would really like what has come out in the last five years!

I miss you.

Drake,
You are one of the best memories at FedEx that I will always have. You and I worked side by side for years and I am honored to have known you. You were always in a good mood. You sauntered in to work without a care in the world. Your sister walks like you do you know. Your mom let Tammie and I know that the two of you went together like "Peanut butter and Jelly". We hope that someday we will be like you two. The world was a brighter place because you were in it. I know heaven is a brighter place because you are in it. Thanks for watching over us. See you someday again my friend. Love Lance and Tammie
