uncle johnny...jerry hurd here...clints son....i remember growing up and knowing "uncle johnny" good times rest well

Uncle Johnnie,
I've been thinking about you lately. I remember some of the conversations we used to have when I would visit you. With the recent passing of Uncle Clint, all of my Aunts and Uncles have really been on my mind. I miss you.

Hey there Dad, I know your still with us because me and Little Man have "seen" a lot of you lately. I know your watching over us and I just want to say thank you for never leaving us. Enjoy the Kingdom. Forever and always, Tia and Littlefoot

Hey there Pops, I know you have been watching over me and Little Man but you know, sometimes, I can actually hear you and smell you. No it's not because I have your coat hanging in my closet. I guess it's my love for you that keeps your spirit so alive. You know, all of us girls (and mom) are at points in our lives where we still need your guidance. Since your spirit is still so alive, fly dad...fly high but stay low~ Peace to you, forever and always. Tia

Hey there Dad. I sure do miss you but I know you know that. Not to much longer to go at MSU then little man and me will be headed towards the sunset. Somedays are difficult but you know me, I manage to make the best of it just like you always did. I think of you everyday and miss you dearly. Forever and always, Tia~

Hey Grandpa, it's me, Littlefoot. I am home and doing great. I want to say thank you for being with me and for watching the doctors real close while they fixed my back. And Grandpa, don't worry like Grandma does about mommy, she will be ok too after she gets fixed and please keep an eye on my Daddy. You save that tree sweet tree until we can all be together. Have fun in the Great Valley. I love you Grandpa Longneck!

Hey Uncle Johnnie, I am still remembering words of wisdom you gave me about men and marriage as we rode down the streets of Lansing one day I visited. Uncle Johnnie, the words you spoke that day became my lively hood and may have saved me from myself and my emotions. I thank you for that ride and those words. I was always told if anyone could tell you what it meant to be a Hurd it was you and I am blessed to have had that ride even if it was only that one! I miss you dearly! Thank You!

Two years ago and one day, you slipped away from me. If love could have saved you, you would not have died,If tears could bring you back,You would be here at my side.But looking back with tenderness, Along the path you trod, I treasure the time I had with you, And leave the rest to God.

"I MISS YOU VERY MUCH."
YOUR SISTER, ETHEL

God took you oh so quietly 1 year
2 months and 11 days ago today.
You were a special person, in so very many ways. You bid no one a last farewell, Nor even said good
bye, You were gone before we knew
it. And only God knows why.
We never lose the ones we love,
For even though they're gone,
Within the hearts of those who cared
Your memory lingers on.
Deeply Missed
Your Sister Ethel M. (Hurd) Clark
