Didumo’s Final Goodbye.

On the afternoon of August 5th, our family would change forever. Our entire world was flipped upside down. After 4 brutal, hard-to-watch, gut-wrenching days in the hospital, Didumo passed away on August 9th. I am thankful for the 16 years we were given to spend with Dee. I'm so honored to be able to call myself his sister.

Didumo was a bright spirit, filled with kindness, goofiness, compassion, and empathy. He would always say something silly but snarky back to me when I'm telling a story like, "That's craaaaaazy!" and if I ever let someone cut me off in traffic, he'd say, "You're just going to let them do that? That could never be me! We will race and you know I'm winning!" If you knew Didumo, you knew he was constantly smiling and making jokes so anyone in his presence would laugh.

He loved his online Discord family and also playing games as well. He would play with any and everyone - from kids 5 years old to 12 years old (outside of those his age) because he knew how much games could bring anyone happiness. He had just let me know he has a total of 14,992 kills in Fortnite! Not sure how he was able to figure that number out, but he was smart like that. He even taught himself how to code a few years ago.

To his entire Discord family: thank you for being there for him and being his 2nd family. I'm so happy Dumo/TBV always had you.

We would like to send my baby brother off the best way possible. Please consider donating so we can send him off how he would wish. If you are unable to donate, please share and keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. He was only 16 years old, and we are so upset he didn’t get the chance to see what the world was really like.

Thank you.

With love, and forever his big sis,

Jay
