Not sure what to say?

Carolyn and family. I´m so sorry for your loss. Not sure you remember me Carolyn but we use to ride together when we worked in Springfield. May you be comforted by all the memories of your loved one. Karen Jean Hance

We knew "Gibby" from the softball scene for years. My late husband, Randy Walker, played ... always looking forward to the Virginia celebration each summer when he would host a softball tourney. We have a lot of great memories up there and at tournaments. He loved softball as much as we did!! A great guy!!!

I knew John mostly from slow pitch softball. He was a wonderful person who added to everyone else´s lives, who knew him. His family was very fortunate to have him in their lives.

A great person and true friend. Our prayers go out to his family.

Sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers.
