This weekend is Father´s Day. I sure have missed you! Happy Father´s Day my Daddy! I love you always!

River, Bruce and I met you on the beach when we first started coming to OBX. We always looked forward to meeting up with you, listening to the stories you would tell us and calling you every morning to find out where you were fishing and getting a heads up of where the bite was. It surely won't be the same coming down in May and September and not being able to fish with you. We would always watch the trucks come up and down the beach watching for you Green Jeep. You will truly be missed. ...

You were one hell of a Pawpaw. You were one hell of a man, and I will not ever forget the world you opened up for me. Growing up without a father meant I grew up with disadvantages my peers didn't have, but you never let me feel that way. You made me proud to be who I am, even when people don't understand. You made me feel like I belonged in a world that always shunned me, or made me feel so low. I knew no greater high than to sit with my Pawpaw in your boat, to go out on the River with my...

Daddy, you were always my comedian. You were one of the funniest and smartest people I´ve known. Bailey and I will love you forever and always. I will miss you to the end of time my daddy. Best daddy and Pawpaw has entered heavens gates.

Went to Piedmont Aerospace with Jerry. He was a great friend. I will always remember the good times we had together. He was truly meant to be at the coast with a rod in his hand. A good man gone too soon!

Jerry and I went to Piedmont Aerospace together. We also worked together in Winston for Piedmont Airlines. We were fishing buddies all the way back from High Rock Lake to the coast. Jerry definitely was one of a kind and truly loved life. I will miss my friend. I hope you find a good fishing hole.

Jerry was my friends dad, he was a cool guy, I always liked him. Condolences to the family!!!

I grew up with Jerry. We went from first grade thru high school. He was just old laid back Jerry. If he told you he was going to do something, you could take it to the bank. His dry wit would leave you laughing. He is one of the school friends I wish I could have stayed in touch with. God bless you all. You lost a good man.
