To The Dalton Family ... You are in our thoughts and prayers on a daily basis.

Jason, Joshua, Bev and Bro

Paw Paw I love you and I miss you so much, and the words you have given to my dad will stay with me forever. "Good things will come if a man would only wait." Love you.

Missing you dad....love you so much

Uncle Gene you will really be missed by myself because you somewhat took the place of Paw Paw Luther after he passed. When my family and I visited Uncle Gene in the hospital, I thought to myself, I never lost my Paw Paw, because Uncle Gene was just like him in so many ways. Uncle Gene will always be missed, but we know that he is in a better place. Love always, Jennifer, Mary Lynn, and Vanessa

To us you are so loving, kind and true; the land where we reside we have because of you. Uncle Gene we will always be grateful to you and you will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

The memories of you will forever live on in my life. Uncle Eugene I love you but God loved you more.

Dad
