Guy, my uncle, was the most loving uncle one could have. I learned what unconditional love was by they way that he loved me. Uncle Guy, I have given my life over to Christ. This is what he always encouraged me to do. My love for you is forever. Roni.

Guy was a great vocalist, preacher and friend! Even though handicapped he never let it get in the way of his ministry! I really miss talking with him and visiting with him to take him to run his errands. He is dearly missed but not forgotten!

Dear beloved Davis family,
I am so sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. Losing someone close to your heart leaves you with tears and memories. Remember though, to "continue to be comforted...and the God of love and peace will be with you."(2Corinthians 13:11)

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
