Not sure what to say?

I just learned of Jr.'s passing about an hour ago. It's with great fondness that I remember the countless times I was welcomed into the Schroeder house when Clint and I were just boys in the mid 80's. Jr. was a great man. Our deepest sympathies to you all.

Jan,

I was very saddened to learn of Jr's passing. My sincerest condolences go to you and the other members of your family.

Jan, we are sorry we could not be with you in this time of loss. Our prayers are with you and we are thankful for those good times we had over the years with you and Jr. God Bless you, Cuz.

Mrs. Jan and family, My prayers are with you and family. I pray you will have much strength as you walk this path which is not measured by the number of steps but by the moments that you remember... May God Bless!
Ms. Gwen Johnson

Jan, Clint, Merritt and the rest of the family. We are so saddened by this. He was a wonderful man, always a pleasure to work with and proud to call him our friend.
Love Jack and Sandra Preston

Merritt, Clint and Jan,

Our thoughts and prayers are with you guys.

2 Corinthians 5:8
We are confident that...(for the believer) to be absent from the body...is to be (instantly) present with the Lord. KJV

Thank God for JR home going. Our loss is his gain.

Pastor John C Mathis and family, Cleveland, TN

My deepest sympathy to Jan and the family at the loss of JR.

May God's peace that surpasses all human understanding be with you in Christ.
