As a child Uncle IRA and Aunt Marlene took me back to Virginia from a visit to Indiana.He put a plywood bed in the back of the the car so the kids could sleep on the way.That was the good old days, you couldn't get away with that now. I stayed with grandma and grandpa O'dell that week and that is one of the greatest memories of my childhood.I will miss Uncle IRA expecially at Brickyard 400 time.And NO I won't be cheering for Gordon.Maybe Stewart.To the Jernigan family I am truly sorry for your loss, I will keep you in my prayers.

Tom, Bobby, Marlene, and Rhonda. I am very sorry for your loss. Bill will be terribly missed by me and by his friends at Herring Creek Hunt club. He was an exceptional man, proud of his children and grateful for a fine wife. I admired and respected Bill and pray that he is at peace.

I am so sorry for the loss of your father, husband and 'PopPop'. I know he meant the world to all of you and will be sorely missed by all who ever had the great joy of knowing him. I think of the stories Mike has told me of fishing adventures and hunting with him and I know how much that meant to them both. I will pray for peace and strength for each of you in the coming days ahead.
