David & Your Family

I knew your Dad thru my dad when they worked for Walter Rankin and Jack Heard. I then had the pleasure of knowing him after he retired and he would come to the courthouse to register one of the many cars that he owned and he would talk with me about what he had been up to. He was truely a gentle man and very proud of you

He has gone to a much better place

and he can reunite with many of his

"old Buddies" who will be waiting to welcome him home. May God bless and keep you in his prayers.

Your Dad was a wonderful man. It is unique that such a quiet man could have so much prescence and be so interesting to talk with.

Remember he will always be quietly standing in your corner.
