I just heard this evening. So so sorry for your loss. I have such sweet memories of Uncle Ernie. Such fun memories of visiting their home as a child back in the 60s and playing with my cousins Jeff and Tyrone. Uncle Ernie and Aunt Barbara were at my high school graduation and that meant alot to me. He is going to be so missed. You are in our thoughts and prayers. God bless and keep you

Mr. C is one ne of the most wonderful men I've ever met. He was so very kind to me, gave me good advice. I remember some of the stories he told me, but mostly his kindness (and Mrs. C's kindness). Wishing you all comfort in all of the love you have for each other.

I was so sorry to hear of Uncle Eldridge's passing. He is in a far better place now. I don't think I will ever forget their visits to mom and dad's over the years. Aunt Barbara, Jeff, Ty and families, just remember you are in our thoughts and prayers now and always. I do know how you feel. They are still mom and dad no matter how old we are. Love you all. Della Voiles Matthews and family
