It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved brother, Deandre Stanley Bain, born on January 3, 1998, who left us too soon on September 14, 2024. Deandre was a remarkable soul whose spirit will forever illuminate our lives.

Born with an unparalleled determination and an unwavering spirit, Deandre faced both mental and physical challenges with courage that inspired everyone around him. His journey was a testament to resilience—he taught us all the true meaning of endurance in the face of adversity. Each hurdle he encountered became a stepping stone, showing us that hope is often found in the hardest times.

Deandre was more than just a brother; he was a beacon of hope to many. He had a unique ability to connect with others, bringing comfort and joy to those who were fortunate enough to know him. Whether lending a listening ear or sharing a laugh, his empathy and warmth enveloped everyone in love and friendship.

He is survived by his loving mother, Amy Maldonado, his brothers Edwin Bain and Moises Maldonado-Alarca, and his sisters Kyana Maldonado, Anaya Fink, Jade Bain,  Emalie Skylar Maldonado and a host of cousins, aunts and uncles. Deandre is predeceased by his father, Stanley Norton Bain, his grandmother, Eleonore Thermidor, and his little sister, Hailey Jalen Hunley.

To his family and friends, Deandre was a true brother, always offering a helping hand or a shoulder to lean on. His kindness knew no bounds, and his laughter echoed in the hearts of those he cherished. He forged bonds that will forever be celebrated and remembered.

Although Deandre has departed from this earthly realm, his legacy of hope, love, and resilience lives on in all of us. May we carry forward his light, cherishing the memories we shared and the lessons he taught us about facing challenges with grace.

Rest in peace, Deandre. You will be dearly missed, but your spirit will continue to touch our lives.
