I'm so glad I had the opportunity to know L.B. over the past several years, he always had great stories to tell! I am sorry I didn't get to attend the memorial service so that I could hear more remembrances of him. I know he is making others happy up in heaven and he won't be forgotten here!

The one thing I will always remember about LB from our days at Peacock was the value he placed on friendship. Once you became his friend, you had a friend for life. If being a true friend is a virtue, then LB had it in spades. He will be missed by his many friends from all over the world.

L B was one of the nicest guys I knew. While he was somewhat (10 years) older when I met him he always treated me, my sister, and my parents well. I have known him since his days at Peacock, and I will fondly remember him forever. God bless you L B, our love goes with you.
