We met Mr. Creasy five years ago and enjoyed visiting him.
He was a pleasant person and had a great attitude. We never heard him complain or say anything negative about anyone.
We will surely miss him and our weekly visits.

Connie, Just wanted you to know what life long fond memories I have of your dad. Through all that time, he was always the same kind man always faithful to the care of his family and church family. His life was a great example.
May your memories of this very special man sustain you during this time of sadness.
