To Bubba's Boys... I was so sorry to hear of Bubba's passing. I miss the times when you were growing up and Smiley and I would come to see you and play horseshoes. My love and prayers are with you all.

MY THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH EACH OF YOU. I HAVE KNOWN BUBBA FOR OVER 50
YRS. HE WAS A FINE MAN AND A TRUE FRIEND THAT ALWAYS MADE US SMILE.
HE WILL BE MISSED.

Our Uncle Bubba loved much and I know he loved his sons more than life itself. He was the kind of person who could laugh easily and be anyone's friend. The tapestry of the 'French' family has certainly changed in the past year with Pauline's passing, my mother's (Sarah French Braner) passing, and now their baby brother, Bubba. We are richer because of each of you.

My thoughts are with you all. The many wonderful times I spent down home with my Mother (Sarah E. French) have been engraved into my heart and sole for the rest of my days. Thanks to all the French family members for making my life that much better. Bubba will rest in peace now. All my best to ya'all

My thoughts and prayers are with the French Family. Losing a beloved family member, especially at the holiday season, is so difficult.
Scott, I'm glad you were able to make it home, see your Dad and be with your family during this time.
