Though many years have past, I continue in prayer for the entire Hickman family. Although, I heard through someone you had passed, I had long since moved away from the area. The Lord took us on different paths after high school. Time and miles separated us. I still cherish the childhood memories we shared. I remember you visited me some years later in the early 90's when I was recovering from a major life issue. You encouraged me. Thank you. I was happy to see you doing well, and wished you well. You obviously have left a legacy of love in your family. May the peace of our Lord be with you all. Jeff Parker

David, Judy and Family,
We were so sorry to hear about your loss. Someday we will see our loved ones again and because He lives we can face the tomorrows.

I saw this in the newspaper a while back: "When someone you love becomes a memory, that memory becomes treasure." I got some comfort in this and hope you will also.

Our thoughts and prayers are with.
