I was deeply sadden by your lost. Mr.Overton meant a lot to my family. He was instrumental in relocation us here to NC. May God bless you all I will never forget him.

I am honored to call him one of "ours". A. Furlough

One day God looked upon his garden, and he found an empty space;
He then looked down upon this Earth and saw a National Hero's troubled face;

He could see Dolphin was suffering,
He knew he was in pain;
He knew this hero would never get well again.
He saw the road was getting rough,
and the hills were hard to climb;
So.....He closed Dolphins eyelids...

Sue, our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Overton family...so sorry to hear of the loss of a father, grandfather, and friend. Truly a considerate,kind gentleman with a adventuresome spirit and contagious smile. The entire family and extended family is in my thoughts and prayers. Miss you all.

Overton Family,

Our thoughts are with you, I pray you find comfort in this time of loss. Mr.Dolph was an amazing human being, and I am extremely fortunate to have known him.

Jo Elizabeth: I will never forget the float trip where he and I walked that raft back in the rain ... the knowledge and perspective I gained on that walk has been priceless to me as an adult. Thank you for including me. I love you always.

Your loss is felt by everyone who knew Dolphin. We all remember Dolphin as we were growing up in Andrews S.c.
