Andy, we will always hold you close in our hearts. It was such a treat to see you, Dad and Mother interact. It was as if you all were getting ready for another double date again. The war came and the years slipped by....many years. In 1990 the following up of news of a friend from the young years brought you and Dad back together. Now the two of you can get back to your haircut trips! Or a little fishing. Don't forget your cup of coffee with Mother and Dad (Alice and Wesley) in the morning before the excursions. I will always have a mental image of you sitting in the wing chair in the bay alcove having a cup of coffee you said you didn't have to make. It was our privilege to be able to be in the company of the Greatest Generation, the three of you.... .to be the offspring to share friendship with you such a special and dear friend.
We offer heartfelt sympathy to you, Sandy and your family, and to you Terry and your sons Ty and Chad. The
beauty of it all is the many, many memories and the knowledge that your parents knew our Jesus Christ. You
will feel their presence sometime and have that in your heart. It has been a treasure to me to have my parents there for me, and to have special friends there too. Your Dad is one of those special friends.
Our wishes to all of you to have that "peace and forgiveness" that your Dad requested. Bless his dear soul,
Wayne and Susan (Whitaker) Gaskill

Andy,even though it has been years since we saw each other I still often think about the good times we had in Mustoe Va. I enjoyed each and every trip we made hunting and fixing up the cabin. You were a special person and someday we shall meet again. Prayers and condolences to your family.

Dear Teresa and Sandra & family, I'm so sorry for your loss. Mr. Suddarth was a dear sweet man and always kind and good to myself and my family. I can remember my mom cooking Salt Herring for him and dad before they would go fishing. He always had a smile that would make you smile with him. He looked out for me while I was growing up in the neighborhood. Your dad and mom were the BEST! Until we meet again.
