To the Koman family from the Spooners,
We wish to extend our deepest sympathy to all of you at the loss of your father. He was a very special man. He was such a wonderful part of my family's experience during the Marlbank years. The many lessons (much needed) for my brothers kept the music improving in our household. He will be missed by so many. H. Spooner/Kiser

Jan, I was so saddened to hear about your lose. I never had the pleasure to meet your father but by reading his obituary I relize how blessed you and your family and all who came in contact with him are. What a wonderful life he lived. May God bless you and guide you through these tough times.

Ann, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers! Jeanette Adkins
