Charlotte and Pooh - God Bless you! I am sorry for your loss. So much pain and sorrow can fill our hearts and they become hard. I wish I had some words of wisdom but I dont. I will pray for all family members that you comfort and love each other. You are a family of great love and strength. My heart breaks for you all. Charlotte I send you my love and prayers. God Bless you all.

Uncle Owen, I love you so much. I hold dear all of my many childhood memories working on cars, mud bogging back in the hollar, the time you saved mine and Kristy's life at the river, and the way you'd call me your "little turd." Thanks for being an awesome Uncle and loving us kids so much. We grew apart since my childhood but I always loved you as I do everyone in our family whether we talk or not. You're now at peace with Uncle Robbie and Kristy and the rest of our loved ones up in heaven. I love you and miss you all!

Even though we had grown apart due to having our own lives, I would ask about you and how you were doing...we're family whether we talk every day or not very much. I love you and will miss you...you are with some of our most precious angels now, (Grandma,Grandaddy,Richard,Robbie and Kristy), please give them a kiss and hug for me and tell them that I love and miss them very much...you and Brenda have nothing to worry about now, you'll be together for eternity now. It's hard to understand why this happened, but I love you and will talk to you in my prayers...
