We are sorry for your loss. Our granddaughter was priveledged to have Cedric as her coach at the Sherwood Rec Center. He was great with all the children and took the team from a first loss to league champion. I remember him walking in to coach in his full police uniform.We thought very highly of all he did. May your happy memories sustain you.

I was Cedric's 4th grade elementary teacher at Jacksonville Elementary. I remember him as a polite, kind and caring young boy who was a good student, despite his fun-loving ways. I see he had grown up to be a handsome young man with a beautiful family. He was such a success in his short life. I feel proud to have spend a school year with him. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Heather and family, All I can give is hugs and supportive thoughts. Cedric is wonderful. I remember when he first talked about being a cop instead of a surgeon he was concerned with the safety of being a policeman but he wanted so much for you guys. As a student/tech he almost always had that superman shirt on underneath his scrubs. I'm sure he wore it under his uniform as well. He will always be superman. Everyone I know that knew him or knew of him has nothing but wonderful memories and things to say about him. Hugs and Love always.
