My condolences go out to your family. Mr. Haywood, was always a person of good statue that I could depend upon for advice, whether it was about looking for a car or trying to get one fixed. I was shocked to hear of his passing. He was also a very good friend of my beloved Father, the late "Billy Dickens." My prayers are with you, he will be missed dearly.

Our heartfelt condolences go out to you and your family. "Haywoood" as we all called him was a good friend of my "late husband" Billy Dickens. He will be sadly missed in the days to come, as we look to our fond memories of him to keep us strong. May God continue to Bless You.
