I am sorry that I won’t be able to attend the funeral this upcoming Saturday, but I will certainly be there in spirit. I will always remember Pop-pop for his constant laughter and silly jokes. Take care…Love, Alicia
Pastor Tim and family, sorry to hear of your loss, God will be there to give you strength and guide you. My prayers and thoughts are with all of you. Dene Bradney
I am very sorry that I will be unable to attend Pop-pop’s funeral service on Saturday. I will always remember Pop-pop when we started to build a model airplane. I wish we could have finished it together, but I know when I finish it or when I build the one he gave me that he will be with me in spirit.
I will miss him…Matt
