Eunice--We weren't neighbors near long enough at all. It was so sad to see John's obit in the paper this morning. I still remember the day I saw a lady sitting in a car across the street in the hot sun and got the courage up to see if you wanted to come to our house instead and sit in the shade. An unusual way to meet new neighbors, but it worked because you became our new neighbors.

We are so sorry for your loss. Our condolences to you Eunice. Rest in peace John. Geri Low and Dale Turnupseed

Friend and schoolmate, then cousin. How quickly the years fly by and we walk the road we must all take and meet those waiting to guide us on. We will miss you, our love and prayers to those you leave behind.
In memory -- Sibyl Schlottmann Wendler
