MIAMI — A memorial service celebrating the life of Flava Works Vice President Dekenric Wiley will be held Friday in Miami.

“We will truly miss his unselfishness and generous personality he shared with us all. We mourn with you a great friend and a great leader. Our condolences go to his family and friends and everyone Dekenric touched. It's a huge loss for the Flava Works family. His legacy and memory will stay with us forever,” Bleicher said.
