Condolences to the Family

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family.  Uncle Earle always made sure our cars were up and running.  We loved to hear Dad and Uncle Earle tell us about their times growing up in Paradise, even though Mom wasn’t always happy about it.  i Know the Myers sisters are keeping those Groff brothers in line in Heaven!
