Our family loved Nay for who he was. He was a loving and fun person. For those of us who really knew him and his heart, found it easy to love him. And he returned that love to us by being protective, unselfish, and supportive. His family and friends were first in line to him.

Nay was very soft spoken and if you met him you would never forget those dimples and that smile. It did not take much to entertain and please him. Snacks and a game controller in his hands was enough.

Our family is so so devastated and there are no words to describe our pain and we are going to forever miss him in our lives. There will always be a empty seat at the table. Unfortunately, our journey is just beginning. We ask that you please never forget to pray for our family. Especially special prayers for his mother and siblings for peace and strength.

Nayshawn is preceded in death by maternal great grandmother; Anne Pearl Hardin, paternal great grandmother; Joan Day, paternal great aunt; Barbara Young.

Nayshawn is reunited with his father; (Nolan Lovett) and close friend; Khaalil Petty.
