40 years ago, our family moved into University Heights, off Forest Ave. What at delight to meet Mr. Lightfoot at that time, and call on him for his services! He was ALWAYS cheerful and friendly, as well as efficient and timely. I know Orlando now, in still using the services of your company . . . all these years later! What a tribute to a great man who used his 'entrepreneur' spirit to run a very successful company... and always waving to me as he went! Heaven gained a saint! Mrs. Terry Tyson

I knew Mr. Lightfoot since I was a child and he was simply one of the nicest people I ever met. I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels that way. He will be missed. My condolenses to his family and friends.
