Not sure what to say?

Dear Joyce and family,

I am still having trouble processing the fact that Jef is gone. I've had the wonderful opportunity to get to know Jef, working together with him in the Auburn Knights Alumni Association over the past few years. I always looked forward to seeing him and catching up on the latest additions to the archives. He will be greatly missed by all of us.

Sincerely,

Lyle Johnson

To the Thurman family,
I will always cherish my memories of being a member of the Dadeville Tiger band with Mr. Thurman as my director. May the Lord be with all of you now and always.

Marti,

You are in our thoughts and prayers during the trying time. God Bless!

I grieve with your family. we are losing way too many great hs band directors in Alabama lately. I know you will soon be reading from his students in this guest book. I know their feelings. I lost my hs band director 2 1/2 weeks ago. Please know that God is in control.
