So sorry for your loss.. Yale was a wonderful man .. Praying for everyone .

Betty G. Peebles

Yale was the same every time I'd see him. I taught him, and throughout his life, he was always friendly and had such a sense of humor. A teacher never knows how successful a student will be, but Yale was a success both in his family relationships and in his chosen career as a JP. He will be missed. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Yale was one of the nicest guys I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. Always a smile on his face and always willing to help people.

He asked me where I was headed, I told him and he told me that if I needed him for anything to just call him and he would send help. Prayers for his family.

Michael Thurber

Hmmm, had to think about this one. Guess I'll go back to meeting my silver toothed buddy in the first grade. The times we chewed road tar, layed on our backs and stared at the sun at recess.(Hey, it's what little boys do ....ok ! ) The time we layed our bikes in the middle of the road to look like we had crashed, and I believe Grandma Bice was the first to drive up.......we were in trouble !!!!....Mrs Wedgeworth's 3rd grade class, ...1st and 2nd in Punt , Pass , and Kick....she was proud of us, maybe first and only time, Hah ....The time your mom said, "dont get dirty" then we swam across a rice field to ride the tractor with your dad........I'll miss you my friend, it was an honor, your Honor.......RIP

Georgia Yoffe

My prayers are sincerely with the Yale Devillier family at this difficult time of loss. The community, his family and friends will certainly the emptiness that his death brings. Yet, because of the love of God, each often us will remember fun times and close times and challenging times. In each of these moments of remembrance, we will find smiles, warmth and peace. He continues to live eternally and awaits each of us in that marriage supper of the Lamb—our Lord and Saviour—Jesus. What a homecoming that will be. ????

Our deepest condolences and heartfelt prayers . Yale was a wonderful friend to our family. When Curtis passed away, his kindness and assistance eased our loss and was greatly appreciated. The world has lost one of its angels.

Jesse Evans

There are no words at this time to truly express the feelings of losing a dear friend, a special friend , and a good friend. We always talked by text , but that phone call on Friday was the first that we shared and a very good conversation I can keep in my memories for a very long time. In our conversation, I told him that I cared enough for him that I was willing to be tested to see if I was a good bone marrow match. You offer these things to people you only care for, love as a brother, no matter what color. I am happy I was able to make this offer and share this with him. Thank you Hod for allowing me that chance to speak with him. My prayers are with the entire family during this time of grief. May you Rest In Peace ♥️

I will always remember that little cotton top, “silver toothed” cousin of mine. He was always adorable but definitely mischievous! He turned into a fine man who always had a smile on his face. Yale, we used your name numerous times when stopped by troopers on our never ending trips to and from the beach.....thank you! I am so saddened by Yale’s passing. May God hold all of you in his arms just a little tighter.
