Dear Ferris Family,

I'm so sad to hear of your loss. Please know you are all in my thoughts & prayers in this very difficult time in your lives. I will keep you on the top of my prayer list.

May God bless you and keep you,

Grey was one of the smartest and most caring people I ever met. When he made a speech it reached your soul.

Grey Ferris was a great person who loved my mother and my family so much. He was a caring & loving man who will be greatly missed.

God Bless
The Fisher Family

Grey- you were like a second father to me growing up. There are too many amazing memories of childhood trips to the farm to recall just one. Jann, Lylen, and Jason- we love you like family and know the sadness in your heart. We share your loss and love you like family.

PS Grey- Thanks for finding my football!! When I see you again I will again hug your neck just as I did that day.

We are so sorry to hear of the passing of Grey Ferris. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
We are acquainted with the Ferris family through Ruby Peyton and Eugene Dudley from many years ago...Ruby was Charles's mother and Eugene Dudley was my father...

Our hearts join yours in your sorrow! The Hand and Ferris families have been friends for several generations. My special thoughts go to Jann and Bill because I knew you best.

You are in my thoughts and prayers.
