Not sure what to say?

Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.

Dear Caolyn. I was shocked and sadden to read of Hubert's death. I truly am sorry. But we know that God in his wisdom has a plan for all things. You and the family have our utmost sympathy at this time. I know you take pride in what an outstanding person that he was.

I have only been a part of the family for a few years since I met & married Lynne. Hubert accepted and welcomed me from the very beginning. From the first time he met me until the last time I saw him, he always shook my hand and said "Hello Mr. Dale".
I especially remember the first Christmas that I shared with the Jenkins family when Hubert, Scott, Mickey, and I played a game of Rook. It was so much fun.
He was loved by all. He will be truly missed.

We share in your sorrow during this time. You are in our thoughts and prayers. DiAnne and Lloyd Guffey
