He was definitely a friend everyone should hope to have in their lifetime. He was the best cook Loved for you to come visit his Bbq place. We were friends from work and I watched his dream restaurant become reality. We visited as often as we could. My friend will be dearly missed.

I remember the first time Mr. Oscar ate my crockpot lasagna, I was so nervous feeding a real “chef” but he loved it! He was a wonderful man and he will surely be missed...thinking of Mrs. Beverly & all his family..

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived. Oscar was a truly wonderful person and friend who always greeted you with a warm loving smile despite what he might have been going through. He's truly going to be missed my love and condolences to the family. Weeping may endure for a little while but joy comes in the morning. May God continue to keep you in his loving arms as you go through this difficult time.

I first met Oscar when I heard there was a man cooking/selling great BBQ in his yard! I was hooked!! I drove from the campground in back to his home many times just to get that BBQ! I found him to be a guy who made you feel like a friend the first time you met him. And his smiling face said everything! Definitely a people person!❤ Go Rest High on That Mountain with our Lord! Prayers for the family!
