To Dot and the Stigler family: I just found this today and wanted to express my sympathy for your loss. For some reason the Stiglers came to mind tonight and I decided to see if I could find anything about them as we had been neighbors in Houston for some years. I was saddened to read this about Floyd. He was a great man and wonderful friend. He took a bit of light out of the world with him.

What a precious blessing he was to Randy and I and the kids...always telling us a story and and gettting such joy out of a visit with the kids. Our prayers are with you all.

Dear Dot and family, My heart is with you at this time. Stig was a dear friend and mentor to me for many years.
He was my first boss in the truck tire business and remained my friend along with you for many years. I regret that we have been separated for so long.
I pray that you are well. Sandy (Hall)
