As next door neighbors over four years, we learned that an Army building used to be where our house is, we laughed about how that Ground Hog always got to his garden first, we were concerned about him getting locked in a Bob Cat in his yard that ran out of gas, but we were also blessed because we shared a freindship with an exceptional and wonderful person (that also happened to be named Riley and is a Jr). We miss him dearely and our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Joyce, Peggy, Sherry, Debbie, and David, I only just learned of your dad's passing. I am so sorry for your loss. I remember one night he was fighting a brush fire as a volunteer at Lorton and went straight to deliver his newspapers from there. He was amazing. May his memory be a blessing.

Hey guys, seems like yesterday David and I were playing in the front yard without a worry in the world. Each day forward should be each day blessed and every day in the past should be a great memory of those we love. Your Dad was a good man and he will be a memory to be loved always. Donnie Lawson

Well old friend we spent many a good times and days together. At least you can't say it was my cooking!!!! I was so pleased to have had you as my Father in Law for several years. I always felt like I was still a part of your family as you made me feel that way. Will miss you terrible. Your Friend always.

Your Dad was a great guy! I have so many fond memories of spending times at your house as we were growing up. I remember the pony he bought, the fact he went to bed right after supper because he had to get up in the middle of the night for his newspaper job, and his great laugh and smile. I'm so glad he didn't suffer and I know you will miss him. But he is only "away". You'll see him one day again.
Love, Evelyn Lawson Penn
