Hi Carol, I remember your Dad from when we were kids at the Lake. Great momories. He had a good long life as did my Mom who passed last summer at Lake James. Take Care, Greg & Linda Walda

Junior was always a good man who was very caring toward his family and friends. Never knew anyone that had a bad thing to say about him. We had a lot of fun at the lake and at Christmas when we were young. He is a good role model as a good Christian gentleman.

Sorry to hear about his death, always had a good time whenever we were together. We always had fun at the lake and when we would visit in Florida. He will be missed.
