Daris Antwan Davis recounted the harrowing moment he found his husband, Arkmayer, after he had been attacked, stating, 'I shook him. I tried to wake him up and I see that he wasn't moving... He wasn't breathing and I could tell you he had no pulse and he was bleeding out.' This gripping testimony captures not only the tragedy of loss but also the visceral horror of witnessing violence against a loved one.
The couple's backstory adds depth to the tragedy, with Daris recalling meeting Arkmayer in North Carolina in 2008 and saying, 'When I met him I fell in love with him... I've been through so much, but that's the only person I ever wanted to be with in my life.' Their emotional ties and struggles highlight a love story overshadowed by violence.
Arkmayer's commitment to family shines through in the words of his mother, Gertrude Davis, who said, 'He gave up everything for me. He rescued me... He got me through what I was going through.' Her heartfelt tribute emphasizes Arkmayer's character, resilience, and the profound impact he had on his loved ones.
