Shirley and Tammy

Here we stand together,
Dressed in our pain.
We can't go back and relive our lives -
But we can go on from here.
Close your eyes
And let the pain slip away
Let go of the sadness;
It belongs to yesterday,
And let's walk.
You aren't walking alone.
And neither am I.

May your memories and your faith comfort you.

Dear Mrs. Trice and family: It was with great sadness to hear of the passing of Mr. Trice. I worked for him in my days at American Bank of Lakeland before the Ellis buyout and he was truly one of the best boss's I have ever had. He was very kind, patient and understanding and I had the greatest respect for him.

Mrs. Trice,

I am so sorry for your loss. Ray was a GREAT guy and I'm sure will be highly missed by everyone who knew him and I sure hope all is well with you. I worked with Ray at American Bank here in Lakeland back in the 70's before the bank was sold to Ellis Banks. Sorry again Mrs. Trice.
