Uncles'Herman, Kermit, M.P. Dencil, Lilton, Loyall, LIncoln, and Aunts'Flossie and Beatrice probably did not know when they were growing up and working so hard in those fields the impact their lives would have on so many family and acquaintances. Their love and respect of others I am sure will make a difference for years to come. We will be thinking of all of you and are SO glad Mom had the chance to spend some time with each of you and her brother Lincoln this past spring. Love to all, Alcy and family

Tony and Anna - I'm so sorry about Mr. Rupard's illness and death. It never seemed quite the same at the early service at Main Street UMC after he was not able to come. He was blessed to have good care from his children. With my love and concern.
