I am sorry to hear that my "Uncle Waldo" has passed. I know that he and my dad, who passed in April, are having a grand reunion. Until we meet again.

Tina, Daphne I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. He was a good and talented man. He was good to me when I worked for him. I know he will be missed. I pray that God will hold you all in the palms of his mighty hands during this hard time. Bob and I love you and will be praying for you.

We will certainly miss Charlie. He always had a smile and a funny story to tell when he would come by the office. What an inspiration to make you want to find something you enjoy doing in life and continue working at it until the Lord calls you home. You will be missed my friend by all of us at Guarantee Title.
