Mrs. Williamson and Family, I am saddened by your loss. Courtney was always good to me, and laughed at my antics. Jeff told me he was at peace when he went to walk with the Lord. Perhaps you can take some solace in that. He surely was a tough ole man :) Condolences.

Goldie, I have always held you and Courtney as special people.
I Really enjoyed Court's and My last visit with You and Courtney, so glade we made it by, it was special for me.
When Pattie and I stopped by a while back and just sat around talking about OLD TIMES and the way things SHOULD BE, (the way we saw it anyway) was very special for both of us.
See you tonight and LOVE you, Gene and Pattie Pachall

There are a number of us long-time Muller Martini employees who remember Courtney, and we remember him fondly. It was rare indeed that he wasn't smiling, friendly and very upbeat. His visits to say hello to his former coworkers were an every now and again pleasant surprise. A good man is a treasure and is always greatly missed. Our deepest sympathies to his entire family.
