The morning of December 6th 2021, The Lord whispered to Donte Jarel Long and he responded. He was born on May 3rd 1993 to Darris Long and Maaza Gibbs, in Fort Wainwright, Alaska. At an early age, Donte gave his life to God and was baptized.

Donte's love was shared among his families, while growing up. Reading, PA, Newnan, GA and Charlotte, NC were some of the places he called home. He attended high school at Independence High School in Charlotte, NC and Newnan High School in GA, but graduated from Job Corps of PA .

Donte didn't allow his life to just pass him by, he lived his life to the fullest. He loved spending time with his family, friends especially his siblings and all his nieces and nephews.

Donte was a young man of many names; Donnie, Taylor Gang, David Hasselhoff and Trap, just to name a few.
