Hi Lucille and all,
We wanted you to know you are thought about and cared for. We're so sorry for any sadness you feel but so thankful for the wonderful years all of you shared with Mr. Pugh.
He was always so even keeled and kind spirited anytime I ever met him. What a wonderful way to lead a life, with total class and compassion.
Bob, Elizabeth, Paige and Janna Johnson
