Glynda,

Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal.

Always remember...we never loose the ones we love. Your Dad will forever live within your heart.

Of all the encomiums that will be expressed today about the late Dr. Featherstone, none will be higher than "father." The fact that I was just a family friend didn't matter. You could always call on "Jim" Stone for guidance and insight. I was honored to have received both wit and wisdom from Jim Stone. He was the kind of man that would make you sit up straight just thinking about him. My prayers go out to the family, friends, colleagues and all who will miss him.
