David Devin took pride in his work and will be remembered for his commitment to help friends in any way possible.
Devin, a longtime member of the Sardis City Volunteer Fire Department, was laid to rest Monday, Jan. 18, with his fellow members of the VFD providing an escort fitting his dedication.
“We lost David Devin this morning to his battle with cancer,” Sardis City Fire Chief Johnny Crosson said in a Facebook post last Wednesday. “He was a hard worker and was a wonderful friend to many and was always there to lend a hand for whatever needed doing for the fire department and his community.
“Please keep his wife, children, mom and other family members in your prayers in the coming days and weeks. His fellow firefighters need your prayers also.”
Devin – dubbed ‘Big Dave’ by Crosson – was always there when needed, Crosson said Friday.
