Peggy,

You and the boys are in my thoughts and prayers right now. I know how close you and Wayne were and how much you miss him now. I also know that he is in Heaven now with the Lord and you will be with him some day. Until then, may the Lord comfort your hurting heart as only our Lord can.

Mr. Dabbs was a great man. I had the honor of knowing him and his family. He was a great Father-in-law to my sister and I know he loved his grand-children very much. A good husband, Father and Grand-Father. He always had a smile for me and a warm handshake. God Bless.

I do not know of anyone who loved and love each other more than Wayne and Peggy. Wayne and Peggy have always been the closest of best friends to each other. We would all be blessed, if every couple loved like you. I am so sorry to hear about this difficult time in your life, Peggy and family. I pray that God Blesses you and keeps you near and dear today, tomorrow, and the days ahead. I know for sure that one day you will see him again. As for today, Wayne is Worshiping The King!

Mr. Dabbs was a wonderful man. He was friendly, kind, had a great sense of humor, and was always willing to help. I will always remember our shared days at Trinity Baptist Church. I know where he is now...in the arms of his Savior. I will keep him in my memory forever. Mr. Dabbs, please say "hello" to my Dad, Melvin Stewart, while you are there. Many prayers and love to all those who are left.
