Guest Book

Not sure what to say?

My uncle has been a part of who I am today. He has guided me through this life with a helping hand. As I sit here preparing for his home going, I am saddened because he is no longer here, but joyful he is no longer suffering. Thank you aunt Kim for being the one to bring joy to his life at the times when he did not know he needed it. Uncle Marshall will always be remembered and greatly missed.

The Thweatt Family,

Our prayers are with you. May God continue to comfort and strengthen you. He said He will never leave nor forsake you.

Earl and Mary Patrick

Our thoughts and PRAYERS are with you and your family. Their is nothing GOD cannot do; just believe each and everyday things will get better and better through PRAYER.
