B.B. and Debbie,

Please accept my family's heart felt condolences over the loss of your father. Although he will be greatly missed, he is going to a better place.

I will always remember the visits to Pulaski as a youngster and the fun times we had as a family. I guess our dads can get in a good round of golf in Heaven's Member-Member Golf Tournaments from now on!

You are in our Prayers,
Cousin Bill, Sabrena, Samuel and Sarah

Dear B.B. and Debbie,
I understand the deep loss you feel in the passing of your dad. But we know that he is now in the presence of our Lord. That fact alone gives comfort even in grief.
I remember Uncle Bruce as such a gentleman: kind and caring, especially for his immediate as well as extended family. His quiet sense of humor was a joy. No matter when you saw Uncle Bruce he was the same: calm and steadfast.
As I grew up and visited Pulaski, I always felt welcome in the McCall home, greeted happily by Uncle Bruce and Aunt Mildred. I loved visiting his famous garden and enjoying some of its bounty. He and Aunt Mildred continued to be interested in my life and that of my family long after I was a young girl.
I know he and Mildred, his sister, are enjoying time together now while he and Garland are exchanging golf stories. He will be missed!
Love,
Cousin Sandi
