A Time to be Born:
Desiree Small Chastine was born in Jersey City, New Jersey to Mary D. Moorcroft (deceased) and Earl Small. Anxious and ready she entered this life three minutes "Eldest" of her identical twin sister, Gabriella Harvey.

A Time to Live:
Desiree's family relocated to Belle Glade, Florida. She received her formal education in the Palm Beach County School District. Desiree was a member of Glades Central Community High School, class of 1989.

Desiree's love for a life was a gift to all that were blessed to know her. She embraced life with a rose lens and enjoyed it every step of the way. Desiree's laughter would light any darkness and her humility could comfort a stranger. The grace of our Savior walked along side of Desiree and she glorified His name "Halleluejah"

A Time to Rest:
Those who walk up rightly enter in to peace, they find rest as they lye in death. ~Isaiah 57:2

Desiree's peace in transition from this life glorifies His written word. As the Angels in Heaven Celebrate her arrival, our hearts are broken and grief is present but faith is the substance and victory will reign.

Desiree departed this earthly life on April 15, 2016 enroute to her heavenly home. She is preceded in death by her mommy, Mary D. Moorcroft, grandmother, Louise Brice, nephew, David Harvey, Jr., aunt, Janice Brice and her uncle, Spencer Small.

A Time to Mourn:
Desiree's heirs from her mark in this life are richly blessed and will cherish her memories through unity, integrity, compassion and praise for all the days of our life. SHE LIVES

A Time to Love:
~Matthew 7:20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them. Desiree's fruit didn't fall far from the tree, to know her was to know her greatest loves (her children) Matthew Walker, Kenneth Chastine, Jr., Kenisha Chastine and Kenard Chastine.

She knew she was blessed and through her will they continue to harvest, reaping the fruits of her labor. Sowing the seeds, bestowing the blessings for the generations to come.
We Shall Call Them Blessed!
