I went to high school with Des. Does anyone know when and where he is being buried? I really want to go pay my last respects since he and I went through 4 years together. He was a great guy and funny down to his bones. He would make me laugh any day that I didn’t even have the strength to smile. RIP Des…we love and miss you so much already!
