My husband Terry and I we're truly blessed to receive Banks as a friend, a neighbor, and a brother in our hearts. God called him home early, but it is in His time I have to say. Can't question His judgement. We will never get over Banks being gone, but we will get through it. We know he's in great hands and we often can look to the moon and see Banks' smile. To the family, we extend our deepest condolences and we offer our love, support and prayers. Never hesitate to call upon us if you need anything.
