Thank you Mr. McCullough for the wisdom you shared with me. Great man of God, you will be missed!

Love you!

I have had both the honor and pleasure of knowing Mr. McCullough for almost 14 years through Northside Mental Health Center where Mr. McCullough served as a Security Guard. He was loved by all who knew him. I am sure there is a special place in heaven for Mr. McCullough he was a wonderful person and always thinking of others first. God Bless the family and help them cope through this tough time.
