Not sure what to say?

Dear Liddell,
I have been thinking about you for a number of years and remembered you speaking that your father was a retired Colonel. I hardly expected to find you by reading of his passing. Please accept my condolences. Just reaching out through the years to a most lovely friend.
Sincerely, Karen Leach Ragan - [email protected]

My heart is heavy to hear of the loss of this wonderful man. I wish I could have been with you on Tuesday. May God provide all that you need right now.

Dear Aunt Kay and family, I am so sorry for your loss and I hope you can find comfort during this time. He lived a great life. Joey, Mary Lou, Avery and I will be there tomorrow. Love, Adelaide

I'll truly miss you Uncle Phil. I remember you reading the "Tarzan" books to us at "Meme's", among many other pleasant memories of you Aunt Kat, "Flip"(forgive me for this childhood memory Phil), and "Little Dell". I also remember the rabbit hunt at Uncle Ed's farm Thanksgiving of my freshman year at Clemson.
Love,
"Chip"

I have been blessed to have known this special man, may the Lord keep him by his side. Mrs Avery, Liddell, Lewis and Philip, may your memories of Mr. Phil comfort you in these hard times. Love, Gail J.
