We send our condolences to Beverly, Jane, James, Michael, David and their families.
Your father, Uncle Pumpkin, will be greatly missed. I will continue to cherish the memories of visiting your home during our trips to Grandma's house in New Orleans. I remember your dad's favorite dog, playing chase around the house etc... I am sure it was crazy on you all when 11 kids showed up who had been cooped up in station wagon for almost 4 hours. And when we didn't stop at your house, I remember sitting in the car while dad visited with Pumpkin over the phone. Each time dad would get back in the car with a smile upon his face. Pumpkin always seemed to lift up his spirits.
It was exciting as a child to attend our family reunions at Bogue Fly Park. It was our chance as cousins to all play together. I wish those days would have lasted forever. Your father will be greatly missed here on earth but memories will live long in our hearts and minds. I cherish those memories and apologize for being unable to attend the services.
May Uncle Pumpkin Rest in Peace,
Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you and your families.
Love,
Peter & Michele Ryall & our daughters Shelby, Suzan & Raven
