Devin Joseph Mason

CHINA – Devin Joseph Mason, 23, of China, passed away unexpectedly on Aug. 17, 2023. Rest peacefully son, brother, nephew, and friend!

Devin was born June 13, 2000, to Cheryl and Joseph Mason. He spent most of his life in China-enjoying the calmness of country life.

He was predeceased by his father Joseph; maternal grandparents Dennis and Clara Harding, paternal grandparents Harriet and Maurice Mason; as well as Lawrence and Pricilla Oberlander.

Devin was always the silent observer watching people and his surroundings before engaging in activities or conversations with others. This made him a master joke teller and prankster – you never saw either coming! It surprised us all to discover his artistic talents in music. His vision of art to represent his music videos was amazing, commissioning the right artist that put that vision to light was genius! He was just beginning to be noticed and had so much more to share. His stage name is “young creez” and he will continue to be heard by his followers. We invite you all to view his music at https://www.instagram.com/young.creez/?hl=en .

Devin is survived by his mother, Cheryl Mason of China; sister, Celina Mason and her daughter Izabella of Waterville; brother, LCPL Calvin Mason stationed in North Carolina. He is also survived by several aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Devin’s love and loyalty shows in how his childhood friends were considered lifelong and always a part of him. Special mention: Jamin Blais, Nathan White, Billy Howle, Chris Sponsler Jr., and a few Jordans to round out the list. Andraya Roque, always in his heart. So many friends that we cannot list them all. Thank you to those of you who were there for him when he needed you. Trust that he loved you and knew you had his back.
