I worked with Lamar on the railroad. He was a great guy to work with and a humble man to have as a friend. The family has my deepest sympathy. I will remember you all in my thoughts and prayers. May GOD bless and comfort you all. It is a great joy to know Lamar accepted JESUS CHRIST as his LORD and SAVIOR. We shall all be together again one day in paradise. Lamar is already there.
