My family sends their condolences & will always remember the fun we had growing up. He worked with my granddad & they both enjoyed having fun & cutting up all the time. We saw him pretty often. He was much like my granddad as far as if he wasn't cutting up or "picking" on ya then you would have thought he was mad at ya. I know he will be missed very much. Terry, Linda, Michelle, Duey, & Dj sending my love to y'all & praying you find comfort during this time.

What a fine man of God and great preacher! He will always hold a special place in my heart as we were
privileged to serve the Lord together with my husband also Chuck. I know he made it in to be with Jesus forever.

Bro Huff was a wonderful man, great preacher. He baptized me on July 26, 1992 up at Rhoda Ky. Very sorry. Prayers for Shirley and his family.
