Rich Homie Quan, known for hits like Type of Way and Flex (Ooh, Ooh, Ooh), who passed away at 34 on September 5, was laid to rest on Tuesday, September 17, following a grand celebration of life ceremony attended by his friends, family, and fans.

The rapper, whose real name was Dequantes Devontay Lamar, was honored with numerous musical tributes and remembrances from his close ones, including his father, Corey Lamar, and siblings, Andre Munford and Cekoya Munford, according to an obituary program shared online by the family.

“When I first held you, my life changed immediately,” Lamar wrote in a tribute included in the obituary. “Thank you for being the most amazing human being,” the mourning father added of his late son before expressing gratitude to God for allowing him to be his dad. “Until we meet again—rest in peace, son,” Lamar concluded.

Quan’s mother, Tammie Morgan-Chism, also honored her son, writing, “When man said I would never have kids, God blessed me with you, and you’ve been the anchor of my life from the beginning to the very end.” She too, like Lamar, expressed gratitude to the Lord for allowing her to have Quan for 34 years. Though she mentioned she would miss their routine early morning and late-night talks, Quan’s mother said she would find solace in knowing her son is now her personal angel.
