Honoring Two Lives Lost Too Soon and Remembered with Deep Respect
It is with a heavy heart that we share the tragic passing of Charles Devon Lockett, age 50, and Denterrius Deon Hill, age 35, both of Bessemer, Alabama, who were fatally injured in a single-vehicle crash early Sunday morning. The accident occurred on the 2500 block of Carolina Terrace, where the vehicle struck a utility pole and tree. Their sudden and heartbreaking loss has left families, friends, and the Bessemer community in mourning.
Charles and Denterrius were more than names in a report—they were sons, fathers, brothers, and friends whose lives touched many. Charles was known for his steady presence and quiet strength, while Denterrius brought warmth and energy to every room he entered. Together, they shared a bond that reflected loyalty and friendship, and their absence will be deeply felt by all who knew them.
The pain of losing two cherished individuals in such an unexpected way is immeasurable. Their families now face the difficult journey of grief, holding onto memories that speak of love, laughter, and shared moments. As the Bessemer Police Department continues to investigate the circumstances surrounding the crash, we ask for compassion, patience, and support for those left behind.
To the loved ones of Charles and Denterrius, we extend our deepest condolences. May you find comfort in the embrace of your community and strength in the legacy these two men leave behind. Let us remember them not for how they died, but for how they lived—with dignity, kindness, and a spirit that will never be forgotten.
With heartfelt sympathy and enduring respect,
