"Choyce has a smile that makes you just smile. Choyce has a laugh that makes his absences irritable. He always made people laugh, smile, cause anyone's day to light up right when he walks in the room. My brother was brave, but mental illness got in the way. My sweet brother didn't deserve this. His memory and the lives he touched will forever be remembered. The impact he had upon others, the love he showed others, and the forgiveness he had, taught others. The most brilliant, patient, kind hearted, thoughtful man I could ever know. I am so glad to call you, my brother. Never to be forgotten.'
