Victory Dear was born January 22, 2017 and Prince Dear was born March 31, 2019. On June 4, 2021 Victory (age 4) and Prince (age 2) went home to be with the Lord. Victory was a loving, chatty, endlessly happy girl who loved playing with dolls and talking to anyone who would listen. Prince was a bit shyer with soulful brown eyes and a head full of spiral curled lots. He loved to follow his big sister around.
Victory and Prince leave many loving and joyful memories with their parents K. Dradell Deer and Patricia Dear. They will be missed by their Great Grandmother Earnestine Deer, Grandparents Robert and Dixie Summers, and Pamela and Wardell Davis.
They were welcomed in glory by 2 loving Great Grandmothers Evelyn Caston and Naomi Torrence.
They will be missed by their 4 sisters Love, Beautiful, Blessing, and Miracle and
2 brothers Kourageous and Honor.
5 uncles Dr. Brian Ladislas, Rob Summers (Emelie), John Summers, David Summers, and Michael Summers.
7 aunts Kimberly Deer, Kenya Deer Ladislas.
And a host of cousins, other relatives, and family friends.
What God Hath Promised (Revised)
God has not promised, skies always blue,
Daisy filled pathways, all our lives through.
God has not promised, sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.
God hath not promised, we shall not know,
Toil and temptation, trouble without hope.
He hath not told us, we should bear,
All the world's burdens and all of life's cares.
But God hath promised,
Strength for the day,
Rest for the laborer,
Light for the day,
Grace for the trials,
Help from above
Unfailing compassion and
Eternal Love.
The family extends grateful appreciation to all those who showed kindness, love, concern, and generous giving during this period of almost unimaginable double loss. Special thanks to Cousin Andre Caston, Auntie Meagan Wagner, Tasha Templeton, Cousin Jazmyne McCullen, the Singleton Family, the Harper Family, and the White Family for their service and consoling words and to the Newcomer staff for their kind, prompt, and efficient service. And all of the cards and gifts from relatives and friends.
May God abundantly bless each of you.
