Despite the trials he endured, he still pressed on to fulfill the promise he made to his son to make it in with the big dogs and didn’t stop until he was triumphant. Even when trying seemed impossible and all odds were against him, Daquan made a lasting impact on his community and continues to inspire us to chase our dreams and never stop fighting the good fight, no matter how many punches are thrown at you.
