Not sure what to say?

Whitey was a wonderful, joyful man who blessed my siblings, my cousins, and myself throughout our childhood by being a faithful servant of Jesus Christ . He was our Sunday school teacher and Awana leader, always ready with a sincere smile and caring attitude. I can only imagine the treasure awaiting him in heaven.

Dear Leigh and Lynn, I rejoice with you that your precious dad has passed from death to life! Parting is such sweet sorrow,and I know you will miss him terribly; but how wonderful that we who follow Jesus, do not grieve as those with no hope. I think of Whitey´s great big smile and twinkling eyes. He was someone I admired as a teenager at HSBC, and I remember, my brother, Charlie saying if he didn´t have our wonderful father as his dad, he would´ve loved to have had yours!! It was...

Leigh and family, so very sorry for your loss.

Leigh and Lynn. We always enjoyed seeing your Dad at church. He was a sweet Godly man. We are so glad we got to know him through church. Sending our prayers for comfort. Bob and Sue Doyle

Dear Lynn and family. My deepest condolence for your loss. I will always cherish the wonderful memories you have shared.

Whitey was a ray of sunshine and someone you always loved seeing! He gave great hugs and his smiles and encouragement were priceless! His quiet demeanor belied the amazing strength of his character and fortitude. It´s been many years since seeing him but all my memories seem like yesterday. You will be sorely missed, my friend, but being reunited with your lovely wife and our mighty Lord is the BEST beginning of eternity!

Thank you for being you

Praise be to God that Whitey was an inspiration to my walk with God and always made sure to look out for our family, he was a source of wisdom and God's grace and living for Him and was like a Grandfather to me and my Fathers best friend. I dont know what God would've done without Whitey being introduced to my life and Him and his akily treating mine and I as one of them and their very own. I remember Whitey lifting things so heavy my Dad was impressed with how much that man could lift at...
