In Loving Memory of My Son, Xaveon

As I sit here with streams running down my face, grieving the loss of my beautiful son and all the hopes and dreams I held for his future, I feel the need to speak from my heart to anyone who may be struggling — or who knows someone who is.

I was a young father. We were just kids ourselves — married our senior year of high school, expecting our first child, and trying to figure out life. Xaveon came into this world early, just in time for our graduation. Some times were hard, but I always gave my son the best I could — not just with things, but with my presence, my love, and my time. I was there for every moment I could be outside of work and college. And even through his mental battles, I wouldn't trade any of it for the world. Every memory of him I treasure forever.

From this pain, I want to share a truth that I hope reaches someone in time: No disagreement, no breakup, no argument in a relationship is ever worth ending your life over. Emotional pain is real, but it is also temporary. It’s okay to step back. It’s okay to take space. That doesn’t mean life is over — it means you’re giving yourself a chance to reset and heal.

To all the young people out there: there is always a tomorrow. No matter how dark today feels, tomorrow brings a chance to start fresh — to build, to grow, and to love again. And no matter what you’re facing, you can survive it. You are stronger than you think.

Love is powerful — but the first and greatest kind of love is self-love. You have to know yourself, value yourself, and care for yourself before you can fully be there for someone else.

From experience, I urge you: in your early 20s, take time to find yourself before jumping into serious relationships. That’s not selfish — that’s wisdom. Learn your boundaries. Discover your passions. Understand what you truly want and need. Rushing into love without understanding yourself can lead to pain that could’ve been prevented.

Statistically, young relationships often face challenges due to emotional immaturity, unhealed trauma, or a lack of life experience. That’s not failure — that’s real life. But knowing this now can save you from regret later.

Stay mentally aware. Seek therapy. Talk to someone. Get professional medical help when needed. There is no shame in taking care of your mental health — in fact, it’s one of the bravest things you can do.

And please — if someone in your life is acting off, going silent, posting strange messages, or not seeming like themselves, don’t brush it off. Say something. Check in. Be there. You never know how much your care can save a life.

And if you're the one hurting right now… hold on. Your story isn't over. The world needs you. We need you. We Love You!

Xaveon’s light lives on. His legacy is love.

— Dad
