Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. Sandy was the best neighbor we could ask for and he is missed constantly! Everyday when I head home from work, I expect to see him working in the yard. It is heartbreaking to know he is gone- it just doesn't seem real. Even our dogs know something is wrong because they were so used to running over to great him! I can see the pups go stand at the edge of our driveway and look over for Sandy to be outside. Please know that we truly cared about him! We are all heartbroken and are praying for your family. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you and your family.

I called Sandy "son Sandy", he was a blessing given to me by his dad Cecil, mom Zelle, and Granny Fowler. He became a son to me when my son, Ricky, went to Heaven. He, indeed, did what a good son would do. What he did for me, he would do the same for anyone. He would be first to give his shirt off his back. He was a hard worker, smart, and had a sweet Christian spirit. I am comforted knowing I was able to tell him how much he meant to me. He will always be with me, on my mind, and forever in my heart.
To Son Sandy, I say, "Rest in peace love. I'll think of you as being in your second favorite place, Jones Gap", and your first with GOD and your family. I'm so heartbroken,and tearful.
To Jackie, Ralph, Jenny, Jared, Marie, and the rest of the Morris Family- I send my love,prayers of strength, comfort, and peace. I pray that GOD continues to comfort us.
Son Sandy's mum Gert and Family
