Please know that all of you touched many lives through your service and devotion in/to Stokes County and the surrounding area. My thoughts and prayers go out to your family as well. May God bring to your minds and hearts His sweet peace and grace. Blessings.

Jean,
You are my dear Christian sister,and I love you. I stood, helpless, and watched as our world fell apart, but your strength and faith inspired me. The crowds of people Rawley touched who came to honor him, and the beautiful service that you put together was a fitting tribute to his life of service to others. We continue to pray for you and your children. Next to my Ed, Rawley was my favorite man. We will miss him so much.

Jean,
I extend my deepest sympathy to you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Raleigh was a wonderful man. I remember when I called and ask him to christen Hailey he was so excited and willing to help, that was the Raleigh we all knew and loved. His thoughtfulness and kindness will be long remembered. May wonderful memories be a comfort to you and your family.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Mr. Amburn has touched a lot of young lives through education and the example he has set will be sorely missed. His presence in the community will leave a void that will be difficult to fill.

Our deepest sympathy to Jean and all the family. We have fond memories of Raleigh while we were serving the Quaker Gap Baptist church in Stokes County for a number of years. What a wonderful life he lived and shared with so many. We shall continue to keep you in our prayers during these difficult days.
