A Brother and Friend to Many Brother
Devin A. Street was born to parents, Andre, and Darnelle Street, on December 27, 1973, and transitioned to Omega Chapter on February 11, 2022.
He graduated from Calvert Hall College High School in 1992, Frostburg State University in 2000, and went on to take post graduate courses at Frostburg and Strayer University.
As a child, he enjoyed playing with Legos, video games, and anything Star Wars. Over the years, Brother Street, who had been an avid comic book collector, enjoyed chess, and video games.
In addition, Brother Street, who was passionate about his family and friends, was an avid professional football fan, particularly, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots. He was also a devoted member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., which he decided to follow in his “dad,” Ed Jackson’s footsteps and pledge his beloved Fraternity at its Mu Upsilon Chapter during his undergraduate years at Frostburg State University in the Fall of 1997. Later, he became a member of the Rho Tau Lambda Chapter in Baltimore, MD.
As a teenager, Devin had developed a lifelong hip injury that deteriorated over the past few years leaving him incapacitated. Prior to his incapacitation, he worked for his father at the Street Group, the State of Maryland at the Department of Social Services, and later the Social Security Administration.
Throughout his life, he loved each of his family and friends with his whole heart. Brother Street, who made friends wherever he went, was generous with friends as well as strangers. He would give you his last dollar or the shirt off his back. He treated everyone like it would be the last time he would see them, usually saying “I love you” as they left. S
BY BROTHER MICHAEL E. JACKSON, [ETA GAMMA ’78]
