David “Deezy” Alexander

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A ROOM WHEN SOMEONE WALKS IN AND THE ENTIRE ENERGY SHIFTS;

WHEN EVERYONE CAN FEEL THAT SOMETHING HAS CHANGED WITHOUT A WORD BEING SPOKEN? ON DECEMBER 30, 1983, THE ENERGY IN THE ROOM SHIFTED FOREVER AS DAVID AND PATRICIA ALEXANDER WELCOMED THEIR BABY BOY, DAVID ALEXANDER, JR., INTO THE WORLD.

FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, DAVID'S PRESENCE WAS UNMISTAKABLE, AND HIS LIFE WOULD GO ON TO TOUCH COUNTLESS HEARTS.

RAISED IN AVOYELLES PARISH, DAVID WAS BAPTIZED AT OUR LADY OF PROMPT SUCCOR CATHOLIC CHURCH IN MANSURA, LOUISIANA. HIS CHILDHOOD WAS MARKED BY CLOSE FAMILY TIES, MEMORABLE MOMENTS, AND A STRONG SENSE OF BELONGING, SHAPING HIM INTO SOMEONE WHO CHERISHED RELATIONSHIPS AND CARRIED A PRESENCE THAT COULD FILL A

DAVID TOOK GREAT PRIDE IN HIS WORK AND WAS DEEPLY DEDICATED TO HIS JOBS AND COWORKERS, FORMING BONDS THAT OFTEN GREW INTO LIFELONG FRIENDSHIPS; A SECOND FAMILY. HE ALSO CHANNELED HIS UNDENIABLE ENERGY INTO HIS WORK AS A PERFORMER, KNOWN TO MANY AS "DEEZY." HIS WORDS REFLECTED HIS HEART: HONEST, ENCOURAGING, AND ROOTED IN RESILIENCE:

"When the bad get badda and the worse seem worser, keep your head up, brother, because youre gonna make it... I youre going through some pain, like youre lonely in the rain know that Deezy here with ya..

DAVID DEPARTED THIS LIFE ON FEBRUARY 2, 2026, IN HOUSTON, TEXAS, SURROUNDED BY THE LOVE AND PRESENCE OF HIS FAMILY. THE SENTIMENTS EXPRESSED THROUGH HIS MUSIC WILL REMAIN WITH THOSE HE LEAVES BEHIND TO CHERISH HIS MEMORY, ESPECIALLY HIS LOVING MOTHER, PATRICIA ANN ALLEN, WHO NEVER GAVE UP, NEVER WAVERED, AND LOVED HIM FIERCELY AND UNCONDITIONALLY; HIS SISTERS, SHARLENE THOMAS, ARLENE THOMAS,

ASREANNA (JERRICK) PRIER OF HOUSTON, TEXAS, AND RHANADA (MICHAEL) VAZQUEZ OF VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA; AND HIS BROTHER,

TRAVER THOMAS OF HOUSTON, TEXAS.

DAVID'S MEMORY WILL ALSO LIVE ON IN HIS FOUR NIECES, SEVEN NEPHEWS, ONE GREAT NIECE, AND A MULTITUDE OF AUNTS, UNCLES, COUSINS, AND FRIENDS WHO WILL CONTINUE TO SHARE THEIR STORIES OF "DAVID.

AS HE TRANSITIONS, THERE WILL BE SOME VERY SPECIAL ANGELS WHO HAVE PRECEDED HIM IN DEATH, WAITING WITH OPEN ARMS TO RECEIVE HIM: HIS FATHER, DAVID ALEXANDER SR.; HIS GRANDMOTHERS, CATHERINE LARCARTE THOMAS AND RUBY LANGSTON ALEXANDER;

HIS GRANDFATHERS, JOSEPH PAUL THOMAS SR. AND JOSEPH ALEXANDER SR.; CALEDONIA LANGSTON; HIS AUNT,

HIS UNCLES, EARL ALEXANDER, JOHNNY ALEXANDER, JOSEPH

ALEXANDER JR., AND CARLTON ALEXANDER; AND HIS COUSIN, DONTRELL SAMPSON SR DAVID'S LIFE WAS A TESTAMENT TO RESILIENCE, AND THOUGH HE HAS DEPARTED FROM THIS WORLD, HIS SPIRIT LIVES ON IN THE HEARTS OF ALL WHO KNEW AND LOVED HIM. GUIDED BY FAITH AND SURROUNDED BY FAMILY, DAVID NOW RESTS IN THE ARMS OF HIS HEAVENLY FATHER, EMBRACED BY THE ANGELS WHO WENT BEFORE HIM.
