Harris,
I was saddened to hear of the passing of your Father. I hold few men in higher esteem. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family at this time. May the Lord comfort you all.

Dear friends of the Simmons Family:

Dear Tibby and Family,

Harris and Amanda,
We send our love and sympathy from Europe to you and your family in the death of your dear father. He undoubtedly was one of the most gifted men we have ever known.

His business sense was only exceeded by his love of God and we sensed that on many occasions. God be thanked for Roy Simmons, a man of great character and wisdom. We express our...

Harris, may the Lord bless you and your family at this time.
