My hero, my daddy. The hurt is almost unbearable but your love for all who were blessed enough to cross your path and the legacy you leave behind in so many young people allow me to continue on without you. You were the greatest man that ever lived and set the perfect example of what I wanted in a husband, father, and friend. We love you so much dad. Stories of you will forever be on our lips so that your memory and legacy are never forgotten. Until we meet again. In the sweet by and by, we shall meet on that beautiful shore.

I am sorry that I cannot be there today to celebrate Bruce's life. I am sad to hear of his passing but I know that he is now in heaven with his Heavenly Father - pain free. Anyone who was fortunate enough to know Bruce was a better person because of it. I will always remember our fishing trips, card games, times playing basketball at the fire station, and the love that he had for Vicki, Randy, Tammy, and the many youth that he worked with over the years.

Vicki, Tammy, and Randy,
I am praying for you and your families today. May the Lord comfort y'all today. May you draw strength from the memories that you have and the assurance that you will see him again. I love you guys.

We are so sorry. Mr. Rosier was a good man. He was my son Cody Moore's best friend in high school. He always protected him and sat with him at lunch. Cody talks about him often and always says "he was my buddy."
