Not sure what to say?

You married my parents I. 1o73

Add, Your passing removes one of my spiritual fathers. Our relationship began at Trout Creek Camp, OR in the '40's. Our cabin (yours as counsellor and I and others as campers) was known as Add's attic. That sign, post camp remained in the rafters of the camp for years, until the building was remodeled. Many years have passed since we last met, but my memories are as fresh as this morning.

From the first time that we met in September 1954 at a Queen Anne Young Life meeting, to the Malibu, Canada experience, to your marriage of Sue and I in February 1979, to your attending our Men of Queen Anne annual luncheons in December, you were always an honored guest, to your and Loveta's fiftieth wedding reception at the top of Seattle's Smith Tower, I will cherish the memories and your mentoring now and when I may join you in Heaven.
Ken West--Queen Anne '57

Our lives have been greatly impacted and enriched by having had you as closest friends. Just think, it was 63 years ago when Marjorie Wright went to that Young Life meeting in Tyler, Texas. What a great trip it's been! Thanks Add & Loveta. Jack & Marjorie Potts

Our thoughts and prayers are with Lovita and the Sewell family. We will miss Add greatly.

ADD BROUGHT STABILITY TO MANY KIDS LOOKING FOR ANSWERS AS WE GREW UP ATTENDING QUEEN ANNE HS - HE WAS A MAJOR FORCE IN MY LIFE AND BROUGHT ME TO BE ABLE TO SHARE THE LORD AND CHRISTANITY WITH MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS - I WILL MISS HIM AND HIS WORDS OF WISDOM THAT MADE MY LIFE MORE MEANINGFUL

Add was a class act in every sense of the word. He and Loveta were the most gracious hosts and dearest friends I have ever had the privilege of knowing. Because of both of them the world is a far better place.

My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.
Ruby

Add, you will be greatly missed. You brought joy and comfort to all you touched. Your kind and gentle ways will always be remembered. Loveta and family, my deepest sympathy goes out to all of you.
