The group text wound up on Deorick Williams’ new phone number — a man who’d never even met the Lashleys. When he told the sender they’d sent the message to a wrong number, all he got in reply was a picture of Lindsey holding newborn baby Cason.
That’s when Deorick and his brother Dennis decided to join the fun.
“Well I don’t know y’all,” Deorick texted back, “but me and the boys will be thru to take picture with the baby.”
