Xavier "Zae" Deandre Lemon was born April 13th, 1993 to Rachel Williams and James Lemon in Dunn, NC. He departed this earthly life on May 28, 2020. As a boy, he enjoyed playing football, riding dirt bikes, and spending time with family. As a young man, he developed a genuine and charming personality that gained his love and respect from his peers and family. On September 16, 2013, he welcomed his precious daughter, Zyiona Lemon, who was the most important part of his life.
As an adult, Zae prided himself on showing love to his family and friends. He was a consistent loyal friend if you needed to talk, laugh, or hang-out. Zae was quite the ladies man and took much pride in that also. He had such a passion for living life. He spent his time being adventurous, on-the-go and having as much fun as possible.
He is survived by his loving mother, Rachel Williams, and father, James Lemon; his daughter, Zyiona Lemon; his siblings, Santansha Lemon (His Rock), Jamyzha Lockamy, Sakarie Talley, Jihanna Lemon, Angel Kersey, Jamari Lemon; two grandmothers, Renest Gerald and Linda Badges; one grandfather, James Sellers; one great grandmother, Pearl Williams; two nieces, Mckynlee Ashby and Ja'Sani Hannah; one special aunt, Narcissa Haire; two special uncles, Tyree Sanders and Ralph Barnes; his special godmother, Sarah Ann Smith; one special friend, Tykera Massey; and a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, loved ones, and special family, The Sanders.
