Memories and Condolences

Not sure what to say?

I have so many good memories of Floyd----we served together on the Baylor Development Council while I still lived in Arkansas. That set the stage for a long wonderful friendship. He was a true friend.

Floyd and I were long-time friends in supporting many different areas of Baylor University and the Bears. I have very fond memories of fellowship with this great man and have always held him in high esteem. He will be missed, but he is in glory now.

My prayers are with the Prather family and I pray God's blessings and comfort in this time of deep reflection.
