Not sure what to say?

My darling husband, thank you for being the man that you were and for the man you became after the illness robbed you of your memories. You taught me a different kind of love than the one we always had for each other. The kind that can only be understood by one who has walked that path we shared for the last four years of our lives.Thank you for allowing me to truly know what love means. Those memories will remain in my mind and heart until we meet again in God's Kingdom.Your loving wife ,...

Shirley,
You are in my thoughts and prayers. May the Lord bless and comfort you at this time of sorrow. Everette has always been so special to me and our family. He will certainly be missed. My thoughts of him always put a smile on my face because of his humor and the fact that he was such a devoted family man. May you and the rest of the family be comforted by your faith at this time.

Dearest Shirly & Family,
You know that our brother Everette is no longer suffering and that is the only comfort we can have during this difficult time.You know I would have been there if I had known about the service, but that was not within my control. I loved Everette like a brother and know that he will be missed. I love you and the family as well and you will remain in my prayers. I will plan on a visit in the near future. Shirley, I know that he would want you to now rest and start...

Everette always had a smile or a joke to brighten the day. His hugs were good, too. He opened his heart and home and you were never a stranger. We enjoyed our time with Everette and will miss hearing about his adventures. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family. He will always be with us in our hearts. We love you all. Ann and Van

Papa- i know you were so proud to see the whole family gathered together today. I love how we all got to be with each other during this time, but I wish this would not have been the reason for us to be together. I love you so much, and recently I have been looking at pictures of you and me when I was a baby, and I realize just how much you loved me... I loved you so much too and I really wish I could have the chance to tell you that, because I never told you just how much I loved you... but...

God bless the Everette family
I only meet Mr.Everette once or twice but he remains and always will with me in thoughts.God bless you all.

To Shirley Smith and Family, I am sorry to hear about the lost of Mr. Everrett Smith. I could feel the love and dedication you all had for him each time you visited him. You are a special family. I will miss seeing you at the hospital. May God bless you and your family.

Even with the plan of salvation firmly in our minds and hearts, we miss our loved ones as they move on to other adventures. For me, knowing of the love and caring of our Heavenly Father, family, and friends strengthened and lifted me.
I'll always remember Brother Smith's cheerfulness and humor.

To the Smith Family,
I worked with Everette for several years, in X18. Socially, and at work he was a fine man. It was clear to me that home and family meant a lot to him. His good nature and friendly way will be missed.
Respectfully
Sonny Goodson
