Donyea Lamont Hendree was born on November 23rd, 1973, in Chicago, Illinois. He was the first born son for both Ruth and Donald. He was educated in the Chicago public school system and later went on to receive his GED. Donyea had a strong belief in God. He was very kind hearted , thoughtful and cherished his time with family and friends. He loved kids and they brought out the best in him, which was displayed in his special bond with his little cousins Zion, Noah and Jonah Ewing.
He is preceded in death by both sets of grandparents, 1 aunt,  and 3 uncles.
