My father was a wonderful man. He would give his right hand out to anyone in need of help even when we were in need. My father was great with his grandchildren and love to spoil his great-grandchildren. We miss him so much and the house is not the same. I just wait for him to come through the doors telling us to clean the house or to be quiet we are being too loud. I love my Daddy dearly.......

My brother Johnny was someone you could always count on to be there for you or anyone else. The first one to be there in any crisis. He was easy to talk too, full of knowledge and great advice. I regret not being able to talk to him more prior to his passing. I will miss him dearly. I am thankful I was able to say my goodbyes and cherish the time spent with family over the last week. I could say a lot more about my oldest loving brother, but it would take a lifetime to say it all.

To know my uncle is to know unconditional love. My uncle was a considerate man who cared for his wife, children and other loved ones. My uncle was a realist (a funny one) :) ....who encouraged me to think (everything) through, regardless what it was. Prayers remain requested from pure hearts of believers for his wife, his children, his grandchildren, great grandchildren, his brothers/sisters and nieces/nephews....Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.... Heaven has not only my mom (and others) but my uncle now.... show your love, our time is limited here.... love * love *
