Steve Moncrief & Family ~ we were very sorry to hear of your Father's passing. Although we never meet your Father, now I know who the mystery man was when he came thru my Garage Sale & handed me some tootsie rolls, he was one of my favorite visitors and we enjoyed his company, he was just a very nice/kind & funny man. I'm sure you have so many Wonderful memories & stories of Dad, hold them close to heart. Thinking of all of you's during this difficult time. Love, John & MJ

To the Entire Moncrief Family: I am so sorry to hear about your dad. I remember car pooling with him and my dad in the late 70's and early 80's. My Dad and Mom have been in heaven for 1 year and 7 months and 1 year and 6 months, respectively, so they will be able to show your dad around and catch up. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.
