I will always remember his little grin, his endless stories, and enjoying bluegrass with him and my grandpa when I was a kid. I hope they are "pickin' and a grinnin'" together now!

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well-lived. I remember many a time when Loyal would stop in at my grandmothers house (Hazel) for coffee and cookies and to share some laughs and talk about the old days. Must be grandma had a fresh pot of coffee and fresh baked sugar cookies ready, they are in Heaven together catching up on the news of the last 3 years. May you find comfort in knowing that he is at peace and in GOD'S hands now.

My Dear Sweet Uncle Loyal,
I will miss you so much but I will always carry alot of wonderful memories of you in my heart. Times on County Rte.6, in the garden, on the lawn mower and just in the car on rides to look at the countryside or for ice cream. At least you are at peace now and I will look forward to seeing you again in a better place.
Love You,
Sharon

Some of my best memories are tied to Loyal visiting my Dad for coffee on Sunday mornings. He'd always find time for Blaze (my horse) and me. I know he will be missed by all who knew him.

I remember many a day at the farm, riding horses, "helping" to bale hay and milk cows, and playing in the barn. Loyal always had a smile on his face and took the time to answer a little girl's questions. I'll always be thankful for him and his family. (one of Sonny's girls)
