Amid the sadness surrounding Heavy D’s funeral arrangements, the Myers Family has released a statement detailing some of the things they will miss most about him.

According to EURweb, the family released this statement, “Hev had great love for his family and friends; he was a kind and giving spirit who extended and shared himself with everyone who crossed his path. He had a heart of gold, was approachable, very personable and gave of himself willingly and unconditionally. Though Hev will most notably be remembered for his work both behind the scenes and in the forefront, he will always be remembered by us as a generous soul who remained humble and unselfish till his final days.”
