Gary, John and Family;
My heart is heavy for each of you. Ferrel will be missed by so many. He touched my heart and will always be a special memory. The Lord is glad to have Ferrel with him and Ms. Grace. They are joking with each other and wanting us here to celebrate their "new" lives together once again. May the wonderful memories help bring you the comfort that you need in the future. With Sympathy, Sandra Arnette
