Robert Allison Echols Sr.

This year there is going to be some many firsts (without my dad) and it will be rough. My mom today gave me my birthday present with a card. I didn't really look at the card till I got home. It's sign, "Love Mom" Not the usual mom & dad. Little things will make me start crying like that. The Lord will give us strength to get through, but my heart is still filled with "missing him soooo much." Things that I wish I would have talked to him about before he got down. Things I would have...

Daddy, I miss you soooo much right now. I wish the Lord would have waited one more day before taking you. Wish I would have been there, to tell you how much I loved you. There was still things that I wish I would have talked to you about. I know you are in Heaven having the time of your life with family and friends, but I miss you sooo much. All of us miss you. Some day I will see you again. Love you!

WE WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND OUR DEEPEST AND HEARTFELT SYMPATHY TO MR. ECHOLS FAMILY. WE ESPECIALLY WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS TO BOBBY OUR DEEPEST REGRET FOR THE LOSS OF HIS FATHER. YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. WE ONLY HAD THE PLEASURE OF MEETING MR. ECHOLS ONCE (AT BLAIR'S BIRTHDAY). WE TRULY ENJOYED THE TIME WE HAD TO TALK WITH HIM.
