I will miss my dad immeasurably, and will forever treasure the incredible happiness, genuine love, and overwhelming laughter that he shared with us all so freely. We have lost a bright light on this earth, but have gained an amazing guardian in Heaven. - Stacy Lea

My heart has never hurt this bad in all of my life. I have never lost anyone close to me before. I didn't just lose a father, I lost one of the greatest teachers, I have ever known.

Dear Loretta & family,
I was so sorry to hear the news about your brother. I knew of Roger because Loretta speaks highly of her siblings and loves them dearly. I wish I could be there but due to circumstances I cannot. Please know you are all in our prayers. Loretta, I am always here to talk.
God Bless
