Our sincere condolences to Mrs. Gentry and family. Mr. & Mrs. Gentry have been wonderful next door neighbors for the past 11 years and we'll miss having our yard visits. Great neighbors are a blessing and we felt blessed having such a wonderful neighbor like Mr. Gentry keeping an eye on our house everyday while we are at work.

We'll remember him always.
