Not sure what to say?

We never forget those we love!

I will always remember my Uncle Roy with the fondest of memories. I remember how tall I thought he was. Enjoyed the last time I as at their house and enjoyed talking with him.

I loved Mr. Talent. He was my elementary school principal at Bissett Elementary in the 80's. He loved children and I also remember that he loved the Lord. I am deeply saddened to hear of his passing.

Mr. Talent was my sixth grade teacher at South Kickapoo, the second year the school was open. I remember him as a smiling, encouraging teacher. We were able to learn a lot as well as having fun with activities such as a talent show (I joked with him that it was funny to have a talent show in Mr. Talent's class!) I have fond memories of that year.

I will remember forever the merry-go-round in your backyard in Rogersville. Loved to come to your home as little kid and ride and ride and ride.
I always thought he was so tall...and he would smile at me and call me by my name, I knew it was ok then.
