To Alonzo, Beverly, Sweetpea, and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. I remember as a child Mr. Agee and my father sitting on the front porch of our house telling jokes, and laughing heartily until tears rolled down their faces. May his memory continue to live on in your hearts, as he joins his heavenly Father.
