Mr. Cross and Mrs. Cross were beautiful and loving people. We miss her cookies every holiday until she passed. Mr. Cross would bring a poinsettia plant every Christmas. We'll miss serving him at Clay's Popeye's BBQ. Ms. Martha you have our deepest sympathy.

Gene was truly a gentleman and a scholar. I always enjoyed talking with him and he was always ready to lend a shoulder to the wheel especially with the RSPA and Heritage Foundation. Adron will be missed. George Michael.

Adron was a good friend and tireless worker at First Congregational United Church of Christ. He's in a much better place along with Jane.
