His hot sauce collection was unmatched and he never met a person who didn't become a friend. Devon was a fan of all facets of life. From cooking new foods to competing in Spartan races to riding a unicycle, he was up for a new challenge and found excitement in each day. He was always ready to enjoy those he loved and make memories together.
