The opposite of Family Feud

Tuesday, Jan 31, 2023

Twenty-seven-year-old car salesman Davon Woods, a former product of the foster system, never had a loving family. But when a couple – the Wilkinsons – came in to browse for a new vehicle, Davon never could've known that would soon change.

As the couple was leaving the car dealership – the two had been chatting with Davon the whole time about his past, as well as new car specs – they asked Davon if he'd like to come over for dinner. He accepted.

Afterward, they invited him back. Then again. And again.

  • The group kept in touch for over a year after purchasing the car, sharing birthdays and holidays together until Davon decided to ask the Wilkinsons if they would become his "forever family" and let him take their last name. 
  • They said yes.

❤️ What he's saying: “It was weird to be in a loving environment," Davon told SWNS. "I’ve never had a relationship with any parents ever... It was something I’d always wanted. I’ve always wanted to say ‘this is my family.'”
