My memories of Mr Collier were when I was 13 and a struggling young man he showed me that he cared. He took me on his deliveries and treated me as an equal. For all of his kindness I will always remember him. Our hearts go out to the family & friends for the wonderful person they lost.

Our memories of Jerry were fun memories when he was with Phyllis. During his working years at Pennington Bread we all had a great time. As we grow older we part and go our own way. We loose touch with our friends, but we never forget them. May God grant him peace and may the eternal light shine upon him. George and Alice Nickoloff
