My deepest sympathy and love to the entire family.
I am truly blessed to have known Homer and worked closely with him for the past 20 years. What a team we made! He was an inspiration to us all to settle for nothing short of excellence and to give back more than we ever receive. He will forever live on in all our hearts.

Dear Jennifer, I am so sorry for your lost. I know what your father meant to you. The picture you keep on your desk of the two of you at a party says it all.
To his wife Shirley and family remember all of the wonderful times you shared together so that every time you think of him it will not bring tears of sadness but tears of joy.

My name is Lynn Marshall Spangler. I am Forrest Marshall Sr.'s granddaughter, daughter of David and Sandy. Homer helped my Mom, my sister and me with our trust investments after my Dad's death. It was comforting knowing we were in capable, trustworthy hands. I am sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry to hear of Homer's passing. My late widowed mother was one of his clients and he treated her wonderfully. She did not trust many people but she trusted Homer. Homer continued to handle accounts for me after her death. He was always kind and I enjoyed my assosciation with him. I remember a time he came by the house for a visit and he asked if he could walk over the property to see the gardens. He seemed to enjoy the outdoors. He will be greatly missed. Please accept my sincere condolences and know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
Sincerely,
