Deshon Michael Baker blessed his parents, Nyasha "NeNe" Johnson and Michael Deshon Baker, Sr. "Mikey" with his birth on October 19, 2012, in Denver, Colorado. He was the fifth child born in the family. His twin brother, Michael, Jr. was born moments earlier. He was blessed to have three sisters, Mariah, Makaiah, Malaiha and one more brother, Cletyus."Tyus" Deshon was a loving and happy child, who enjoyed throwing his toys down the stairs. His favorite toys were his Tonka Trunks. His dad and mom have a Tonka Truck present today and wish everyone would sign it so that they could keep it in memory of Deshon. Deshon was given the nickname "Dae Dae." He loved walking around with one shoe on and he found great joy climbing on any and everything. He enjoyed playing with his sisters and brothers and oh yes, he was known to taunt them and bully them given the chance. He was a vibrant little boy who brought sunshine into the lives of those he encircled. He leaves a void the can never be filled He now has a place in Heaven where he is safe in the arms of Jesus.
