It was such an honor having Lurie Flowers as an uncle. There will always be beautiful memories of his life to remember in our family. He was a very righteous man of such faith and beliefs. He was always a joy to be around. A man of honor, word and dedication. It was a privilege to have him as an uncle.

To My Uncle, Lurie Flowers.

My very special, Uncle Lurie.
He was always, kind, gentle, loving and a man with great morals and values. If I needed help, advice, etc., he was always their to share his knowledge of life with me. He loved to tell me stories and yes, they could be long, but that was okay. I loved his smile, with that special "twinkle" in his eyes. I will miss him, but he leaves a wonderful family behind, who are wonderful examples of him.

God Bless You,

Your Niece, Linda
