Mrs Walker and Grandma Marrs......I am so sorry for your loss.......Jennifer has told me many great things about Mr. Walker.....and how he loved to joke around with family and friends.....this has been a very rough week for both sides of our family with the loss of my Father and now your Husband (Mrs Walker) and your brother (Grandma Marrs).....Maybe they will cross paths while walking the streets of gold which will give them plenty of stories and conversations to have.....May God be with you both and your families and please let Jennifer know if you need anything......Love Kenny Craig

Claude was a wonderful man with a huge heart and an uncanny sense of humor. I had the pleasure of meeting Claude & Mary 13 years ago and have been in love with them both ever since. You just couldn't be grumpy when you were around Claude! My heart aches for Mary's loss. I can't begin to express my sympathy for her and the rest of their family and friends. Anyone who knew Claude and Mary couldn't help but love them.

My prayers are with everyone who loved Claude. I am comforted in knowing he is in heaven with our Father, watching over us. Mary, I love you and will be praying for you always. God will get you through this.
Mike & Rebecca
