DaWayne and Damon I remember you guys playing on the river bank while your Dad fished. He will be missed by many and I hope you guys are O.K. and doing what your daddy taught you. God Bless all of you and remember Dad may be gone but he still has eye on you guys from above. Gone but never forgotten.

Ms. Jerri you were a wonderful, caring and concerned little sister to your brother. You are watched over by the Angels that we may or may not see in our lives on this Earth and you will continue to be blessed by our Father in Heaven. Love Shonda and India
