Not sure what to say?

Annabelle, so sorry to hear about Junior, he was one hard-working well-intended man, the two of you together always seemed to make a good team, so I'm sure it leaves a real void in your life, but hopefully you can find some small amount of comfort in knowing he's in a better place and that someday, you'll see him again. Heaven knows, you both deserve it. Sorry I didn't make it to calling hours, I just found out last week when I saw Donnie Wilton and then later, Kenny Shavers told me about it...

So sorry Sandy for the passing of your Father, I know you will miss him very much, Remember all the good times you have had with him, He will always remain in your heart. Thinking of you and the family today.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

We'll miss you! Love J&G Auto Parts Tom and Sandy

Orlen will be missed by all. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time of sorrow. In my life I have not met a harder working man. Orlen loved life and all around him. He was so proud of all of his kids and grandkids and would tell of all their accomplishments in life & his undieing love for Annabel. There will never be anyone like him. Always looking for his next adventure, this man would do things that would make a 20 year old quiver and back down from. I will never...

Sandy, our thoughts and prayers will be with you and your family during this time of sadness. Loosing someone we love dearly hurts very deep. This will be a difficult time for you but you can see your Dad again someday. Hold on to that vision and know how happy your Dad will be to see you. Love you all. Aunt Ruth and Lawrence Jr.

BIG "O" you will be missed more than words could ever say. You are truly a "ONE" of a kind and the hardest working man I know.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
