Here's John Henry Doucette, sweet and tight, on a family making copies of a dead kid's picture:
Billie A. Spruill sifted through photos to pick out the best one of her dead son. She and her husband, Robert, were following the advice of a police officer. They traveled in their motor home to a copy shop.
Her son, Michael L. DeMasse , was killed late Dec. 10 in a hit-and-run collision while riding his motorcycle.
The Chesapeake man had been trying to turn left from Portsmouth Boulevard onto California Avenue. He was 31 .
He died near a Christmas tree lot. One witness saw a dark-colored pickup truck with big tires and a loud exhaust system keep going.
