As our Brother Deontis answers his final call to duty from the Great Commander in the Heavens, may his soul have peace and rest. His duty is to forever watch over his loved ones at the Great Commanders side.
My you find peace and comfort at this time and realize that your Hero is not gone but waiting to be reunited with those he loves.
May his soul find fair winds and following seas! RIP Hero!
