Deonte PITTS

Deonte was born on October 30, 1993, to Michelle McClure and Richard Pitts. On November 4, 2015, God decided he needed him.

Deonte was an intelligent young man. He received his diploma in 2013 and was on the Honor Roll all throughout school. He had a strong sense of humor and was very outgoing . He cared deeply for his family. Deonte was known for being a motivator, for his caring spirit, and his willingness to uplift someone if they were feeling down. He had a great passion for music, he loved to rap and he was always ready for a " Rap Battle". He really enjoyed football and clothing, but most of all living his life! Deonte has always had an entrepreneurial spirit, he sold snacks to kids at school and gave Teen Parties.

Deonte was the Founder and CEO of Lonesome Brand, a clothing line he started along with his twin brother, DaVante. Together they worked hard on the clothing line and had a set date of November 27, 2015, for their Grand Opening.

His loving and caring spirit will live on forever!
