I am Mr Bush's neighbor. He was very kind and welcoming to me and my husband when we moved in. I would bring him plates of cookies and he would tell me stories. I used to walk my dog thru his property because he worried about us being on the road. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family. He will be missed.

I was June's neighbor for a few years (lived in Nans house). June and his wife were always kind to me and my children. I loved hearing his stories. June knew a lot of my relatives and shared stories that I did not know. He will be remembered kindly and missed.
