Not sure what to say?

Ugy, I can't believe it's been 9 years since you left this world, I still miss you every day! I just know you and Eve, A.K.A Saphire (Saph), A.K.A. Agy are having a ball together again and that makes me smile! All my love!

Life will never be the same without your humor to brighten the day. The service you gave to your country to keep us a free nation, will always keep you in our hearts forever.
Always with love to keep the memories alive in the darkest hours.
Herman and Shirley

Yancy, Bill and I will miss your lust for life and for all those wonderful stories you told. We were always amazed every time we heard that you were still driving to Reno. Good for you! Nothing stopped you from living and doing what you wanted to do!

"Ugy", my great uncle, I will always hold the memories of our time together close to my heart. The summers I spent with you and "Agy" are most precious to me and will never be forgotten. Always in my heart with love!

Loving thoughts of you always. You will be missed.
Marilynn Governor

Uncle Yancy, you will be missed. We love you and we will miss you. I will never forget your generosity and humor. One of the many things I will miss is your birthday cards to me when I was growing up and to the cards you send to James and Grace. I am sure that your buddys have welcomed you home. Thank you for your service to our country. Love aways, Jim 'Jimmy' Sterling and family

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.
