Uncle Sherman will definitely be missed, but we find peace knowing that he is no longer in pain. We wish we could be there in person to say our goodbyes, and hug everyone but my Dad´s physical health issues prevent that. Know that we are all there in spirit and love you all!
Curt, Ann Lucas, Debbie Lucas and Stan Manning and Donnie Lucas, and all the kids and grandchildren
