Not sure what to say?

Virginia, I cannot believe it has been a year since Doug's passing. I think of you often. Maybe if Covid ever passes, we could get together for lunch. Love, Ann Fields (Marion Diehl's water aerobics class.)

Dear Daddy, I think of you every single day. Missing your voice, our laughs, (your laugh was simply priceless) our time spent, how you were so excited to see us come through the door. I look at pictures of you and I can just imagine your voice and what you would say. You were my very first HERO! You were everything and I miss you so much! We are doing just okay. And know that Spencer is still making you proud! I love you forever! Your twin forever!

My name is Crystal from Awards North & I just found out today about the passing of this dear man known to me as “Rufus”. He was more than just a customer to me. He was a friend. We shared many wonderful conversations and I remember him praying with me for my daughter in a parking lot (we always met in a parking lot to get his awards :) ). This left such an impression on me. He was a kind and considerate man and I will greatly miss our yearly conversations. I’m so glad I was privileged enough...

Thinking about you everyday now that your gone, you will always be in my heart love and miss you your son Doug

Peace and Blessings to the Spears Family. Mr. Spears will always go down in my book as one of the most pleasant and nicest person I no. My father and I was Dougs tailor for many years and he will be truly missed. God bless y’all. Terry Grier(father James Jimmy Grier deceased)
