Not sure what to say?

Dear Agnes,

I am so sorry to hear of George's passing I have thought of both of you often. George was a wonderful person. You are in my prayers. Jacqueline Fergot (Eicholz)

Agnes:

My thoughts and prayers are with you during this season of your life. Continue to trust in Him who will give you strength and comfort.

Agnes and family,
I was very sorry to hear of George's passing. Malissa shared this with me last night, 1/17. May God's grace and love abound to you and yours in the coming days.

Agnes,

It has been many years since I have seen you, but I remember fun and laughter at Emmanuel get-togethers. Your Lillian and my Tom were the same age. I am so sorry for your loss.

Agnes,

This is Gerry Chambers--haven't seen you all in years--I suppose not since I decamped for Augusta in 1975. I always enjoyed your and George's company and remember many good times in the 70s, particularly the joint Comp Lit/English parties and the good times at the Baileys. Thoughts and prayers are with you as you say farewell.

I was saddened by the news of Dr. Martin's passing. He was the embodiment of a true Southern gentleman and scholar.

Agnes and family: We were saddened to hear of George's passing. He was a rare combination of wit, intellect and small town common sense. Those of us in the Emmanuel Chapter of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew especially remember his lively contributions to our meetings. His Bamberg stories were always a high point. RIP and God bless...Wally and Charlotte.

Mrs. Martin, I was so sorry to hear about Dr. Martin. I have so many fond memories from Tara Way. Mainly how Dr. Martin always called Nancy and I 'Ralph and George'. I wish I could be there tomorrow to see you and the family. I will be thinking of you.
