Wow, what to say? Nelson was my Clemson Tiger buddy. If we weren't talkin Tiger we were riding up and down the road in his old car. He could make me laugh so hard, I would be in tears. He was a really awesome person to know and he will never be forgotten. Thanks for being a blessing in my life.

Dear Cornelia and Bellamy Family,
I am sorry for the loss of your Brother. May you be comforted by the many warm thoughts of those who care. After the loss of my father - In-law I became overwhelmed with such grief until a friend shared this poem with me. I would now like to share it with you. May it bring you much comfort as it did for me.
My Father called, and, I'm sorry I had to leave.
It's o.k. I know you love me when you grieve.
I'm now standing in glory with God, and that, you must believe.
There will be times when you'll wish I was back, but, just remember this:
I'm only in the other room,
The one my Master made for me.
I'm only in the other room,
That space in your hearts, you saved, just for me.
I'm only in the other room,
I love you each, as love should be.
There'll come a time, when we'll reunite...
It's in the other room.

To The Bellamy Family,
So sorry to hear about Nelson. He had a great family with all the sisters and brothers and I'm sure never a dull monument. Was always a joy to visit in the Bellamy home which I did many times as we were all friends when we were growing up. I know he will be missed by all who knew him. May God bless and comfort your hearts during this time of sorrow is my prayer.

The Bellamy Family! What a WONDERFUL FAMILY! Larry, I'm so sorry to hear about Nelson. I just wanted you and the family to know that I considered Nelson as MY BROTHER all of these years. The times we spend together with Wayne Duncan you could just feel the LOVE between friends. Nelson always had something positive to say. Always smiling, and that laugh. WOW! I will miss him. We will be together again. God Bless you and the family. I LOVE YOU ALL!
