Dillard Martin Powell

Marcia, Judy, John,
My heart goes out to you on the sudden passing of your Dad. My Dad, Ed (d. 2013), had often remembered Dillard and remarked what a good person he knew and admired back in the late 1960s Cary days. Peace be with you.

I'm so sorry to hear of Uncle Dillard's passing. I know the pain that causes all of you. I remember him as a loving and kind person. My best to all of you, Brenda Powell Smith

To the Powell Family-I was once Anita's caretaker & saw the love in this family. I'm so sorry for your loss.

My thoughts are with you all. Dillard was a great friend of my Dad, Bud Parsons, a 69th colleague. I got to know Dillard and Judy during a 50th reunion of the 69th Division and dedication ceremony along the Elbe River. He will be missed by sooo many. He was such a special, humble and honest man. I am a better person for having known him.

I am sorry for your loss. Mr. Powell was good friend to our family and I am proud to have met him.

Peggy you are in my thoughts and prayers. My heart is very sad but I've been remembering the wonderful time I had with you and Uncle Dillard several years ago in Top Sail. He was such a wonderful man and now he is home with the Lord.

Marcia, Judy and John....I am so very sorry for your loss. Our family has lost a wonderful man who will be forever missed. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Marcia. My condolences to you and your family. Your Dad was a very special man.

Thoughts and prayers to the entire family. Peggy, my love to you for always taking care of Aunt Nita and Uncle Dillard. Heart breaking news to hear. Uncle Dillard was a man to admire. So full of knowledge. He will be missed.

Judy, so sorry to hear this news. I know your heart is broken. May the grace of God be full and sufficient during the days ahead. Love to you and the boys and your family. Gayle a Myrick. ( Linda McGowans sister)

So sorry for your loss. Dillard was a great man and I so loved talking with him. We had a lot in common and I truly
will miss him and keep him in my prayers.
My condolences to you all.

Deep sympathy to Dillard's remarkable family. He was one in a million -- a kind and honorable man and it was a privilege to have known him. The world is less for having lost him.

He was a great man. He gave me some great life advice. He is missed. My deepest sympathies go out to his family.

So sorry to hear of Dillard passing my thoughts and prayers are with the family during this difficult time

My heart is broken over the loss of Dillard. He was my family's attorney for 40 years. He was such an incredibly thoughtful and giving man. He was helping me with the loss of my mother - I just found out today, living up in NH. My prayers go out to everyone in Dillard's family. What an amazing life he lived - always caring about others. He will be so very missed.
Bless you Dillard and family. Leslie Tufts

Mr. Powell was a fixture in my childhood. I was blessed to know he and his family. I pray God gives you comfort and peace.

Marcia, John and family,
My deepest sympathy for the loss of Dillard. While shocked and saddened by his sudden passing, I take heart in knowing he was doing something that he had been passionate about most of life. I think it was around 1978 when I first met Dillard and from that point on, he was a man that I admired and respected greatly, both personally and professionally. We met on a professional level, but first and foremost, I considered him a friend. He will be missed. God bless you and keep you as you work through this difficult time.
All the best,
Brent Cousins

Mr. Powell was a wonderful neighbor and a White Plains UMC friend of our family. My thoughts and prayers are with the Powell family. God Bless.

My most sincere condolences to the family. Dillard was one of the finest and most honorable men I have ever met and we are richer for having known him. The world is weeping and he has left a void. He was a magnificent man.

John, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. We hope you find some comfort in the love and memories you hold in your heart of your dad.

Pete and I send our love and prayers to you especially during this sad and tough time. Your Dad was a great man.

To the Family of Mr. Powel,
I've never known a more honest attorney or had a more interesting friend than Mr. Powell. His integrity was impeccable, his advise was solid and his clients always came first. His love for flying was second only to his love for his wife and family. His passing leaves a great void in my life as I depended on his knowledge, wisdom and most of all the pleasure I had talking with him about his flying and military experience.

So "Go rest high on that mountain" Mr. Powell, and may your journey be peaceful and calm. You will be missed.
David Stanley

My sincere condolences to your family. The last time I saw Dillard was at the funeral of my dear father (Bud Parsons). I find comfort in the image of them now swapping more WWII stories of the 69th.

John, our heartfelt condolences to you and your family. Your dad was quite a man. It's always hard to say goodby especially when it is so unexpected. You will be in our prayers. God Bless.

My deepest sympathy.Randy
