My thoughts and prayers go out to the family of "LD" When i was 10 or 11 years of age, we use to play together. I live at 530 Jefferson Ave. Vinton, Va. and moved away at the age of 15 to N.Y. I am sorry for your loss

I am so very sorry for your loss of a husband, father, grandfather, uncle, brother and friend. I cannot ever find the proper words to bestow my feelings at these times but I think this time I can truly understand your hurt and complete disbelief.
I hope that my prayers for peace of your hearts and love for those who come together to mourn this fine man will be fulfilled. If anything is needed please do not hesitate to contact me. Robin knows how. For my short time being around your family I truly felt welcomed and accepted. I thank you for that. May God bless you all. Again, I am so very sorry.
