Tim-
We are saddened to hear of the loss of your father. H.D. was a very kind and thoughtful man, as we all thought the world of him. I remember many times coming over to your house and he would always be working on a Mustang (mine included) or a tractor. Please remember that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Tim and Family,
You and Alachua have lost a great smiling face. I, like H. D. am a Alachua native and he was always such a gentleman. His sisters Ruth and Barbara Ann were my age. Tim, Judy and Girls, he was so proud of you and his eyes sparkled when he was talking about you. In the weeks to come, when this wound is not so raw and your hearts begin to heal, talk about and remember the life of your Dad. He and Joe Elliott are having some good times right now.
Take Care,
Nancy Duke Ervin and Family

Tim, Judith & Girls,
There are no words that we know to express to you, how much we cared for H.D.. He was a true friend and a great dinner company, we enjoyed many of meals with him at Browns.
He always had something to say that would make you laugh or smile.
Tim, he always had something nice to say about you and Judith and how proud he was of you two and the girls.
He and Cody always had to talk about the post office, fishing and tractors.
We are praying for all of you.
If there is something that we can do for you, please give us a call.

To this family I have known for a lifetime. You all have my deepest sympathy. I have been close to H.D. in the last few years. We shared a lot of meals together and sat and remembered a lot of good times together. He will be very missed by all of us who knew him. I loved him like an older brother because he and Joe Elliott were such good buddys. I spent my entire childhood with the Elliots and H D seemed to always be around. I will miss him terribley. The Lord has taken one of his angles home. Love to all of you Pat Fields-Thornton
