I am sorry I missed the service. Irven was a very good man, I worked with him at Henrico County and after he retired I tried to replace him as Sr. Plumbing and Mechanical Inspector, but as you all know no one could ever replace Mr. Cullingsworth.
The slide show gave me some insight into your and Irven's life, that I never knew. He was truly a good man.
Sorry for your lose.

Donnie, Brenda and Dickie....My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Poppa Cullingsworth was a good man and he will be missed. I'm so glad that Ethan got the chance to know his Great-Granddaddy and that they were able to enjoy their time together, fishing and breakfast on Sunday mornings. May memories of times shared bring you comfort.
