Homer was one of the most kindest person I knew. He was always willing to help out with anything. I will dearly miss him. My thoughts and prayers to Shirley and his family.

Homer was a quiet man but could do anything. I remember working with him around the church and he was always willing to teach me, a young kid at the time, what he knew. My thought and prayers will be with the family during this difficult time. Allen and Amber Lamison
