My "Deddy", "Pedro", "Dad" - Well it's a love without end, amen. Thanks for that to the good George Strait. It's been an honor to be his daughter.

Red or Papa Red ( as the kids called him) was a loving, giving man to us all. His smile would light up the room and his humorous nicknames made you feel loved. You will be missed dearly but forever in our hearts.

I’ll always remember Pedey, Pedro, Red. Just one of the nicest guys you could ever meet. He was extremely kind to me and my family and he’ll truly be missed. My continued thoughts, prayers and condolences.

I will always remember what a good man Red was. He was a very friendly man and he loved to fish in Lake Coweta. I always enjoyed talking with him. He will be missed by many. Russell Spence
