I gave him all my insulation business while I was a contractor. He was a nice man and an impeccably honest business person.

Owen was always a friend. I will miss him at church. His faithfulness was an encouragement to me.

iva, i'm so sorry for your loss. The last time that we spoke was at my mother's funeral, but I remember how good you and Linda and your mother were and so gracious in fixing the dinner after my Dad passed away in 1978. Your Mother and Dad were my
Aunt and Uncle and I have fond memories of them in my childhood. I wish we could have spent more time together as we grew into adulthood.
