Not sure what to say?

Ms. Bernie, I lift you and your family up in prayer. I know this time of year is difficult for you. I love you and miss you. Love, Rose Hornbeck

It has been 1 year and 1 day since you left us. We really miss you. I hope you and Daddy are smileing down at us. I miss you both so much.

I appreciate what a good father Woody was. I remember how proud he was when he held Michael just a few minutes after he was born, and how he would get up to "change" Matthew & get him ready for those early morning feedings. He always made time to be with Michael & Matthew, whether he was coaching Michael's baseball team, or coming to Trinity UMC to see Matthew play guitar for the Youth Praise Band. I remember trips to Brandon to visit Granny and Grandaddy, trick-or-treating on Halloween,...

It has been a month and 17 days since you left us. I keep trying to understand and all I can do is wish my brother was still here. Words can not describe my emptyness.

I was absolutely stunned when I heard about Woody. When I was a younger lawyer, we had a very difficult deposition together. I've had many since then but I particularly remember how remarkable it was that Woody kept his cool and acted with utmost professionalism. Many would not act in such a dignified way. Woody was a valuable member of the Mississippi Bar. You will be missed my friend.

Mr. Pringle was the most caring attorney I had ever met. I have worked with several attorneys and he was always the one I depended on and could trust. I was just made aware of his passing and my prayers go out to the family. He will be missed greatly.

I was one of those recipients of Woody's kindness and generousity. He not only only represented me as an attorney, he shared his love of the Lord and his faith which have given me much stength over the time I have been fortunate enough to know him. May God bless and keep this wonderful man. Thanks Woody! My life is much richer for your being in it.

Dear Bernell and Family,
Our hearts are heavy with Woody's recent passing. We love you and are continuing to pray for you and your family. Love to you all, Kim and John Aflague, Kit and Bali Smith

The bible says: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthened me", Phil. 4:13, I will have to trust that for now, but I honestly don't know how I will make it without you, Woody. My prayers go out to all his family and friends. We all lost a lot when we lost Woody. He was the best and always will be.
