Kevin-

My sincerest condolescences to you and your family. I remember visiting with your father and mother in Hollywood Park as we got ready to return to Lubbock. It was a pleasure to visit with him. I am sorry I missed the visitation and service as I was out of town.

Dear Deano & Family - I never knew your dad but I know he must've been a very special man, as seen by the legacy of such strong Christian sons. You all are in my prayers.

Dear Margaret and family, I grew up as your next door neighbor on Longview Drive. I remember you and your family fondly and Mom (Garnette Kaiser) and I reminisce often about the blessing of having your family as neighbors, the wonderful role model you all served as to the neighborhood and your famous chocolate cake! We are so saddened by the death of Wallace but rejoice in his service to our God. The Lord truly blessed you both with 60 years of being together and the opportunity to faithfully serve Him. Please know that you all are in our prayers.

Dear Margaret and family, I remember Wally very fondly, him and my Dad (Walter Gunkel) were the best of friends. My Mom reminded me today that Wally and my Dad both got their ham radio licenses on the same day. I believe Wally's was W5HHN and my Dad's was W5HHO. God Bless you and your family, you are in my thoughts and prayers.
