Clayte, Pam, Tina & Ken,

Sorry to here about Uncle Don passing. Had not seen him in a while but he was still being funny shortly after his 100th birthday! Uncle Don & Aunt Marian were two of my favorite people growing up. I had a lot of fun working at the car wash in Marion with him. He was a great roll model for me. The only time I ever saw him get mad was when I foolishly sprayed him with the hose while playing with Clayte at your house! lol. A lot of fond memories! Thoughts and prayers to all of you.

So sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Have great memories of both your parents as neighbors. Kirkwood Park was a great place to grow up because we all had such wonderful and caring families.

You are in my prayers

I am so sorry to hear of Roy's passing. My mother was a resident at Woodview for a few years and I had the pleasure of meeting Tina and her crazy dad, Roy!!! I can only imagine what he was like when he was 30 since I met him when he was about 98 and he was still a spitfire!!! Only a person with that much life in him could live to 102 years old. Holy cow!!! May he rest in peace and I am grateful he brought me to meet his beautiful daughter.
