When I think about all the times we spent together with Uncle Wyndell & Aunt Cora, the boys, and our the entire Carter family, on the many visits we made to their Vienna homestead, I am filled with the fondest memories of my youth. I can honestly share with you that, although he is now safely home with our Lord, he will never truly be gone from your daily lives. Although we lost dad, one of Wyndell & Cora's dearest friends, almost 20 years ago, it still feels like he is right here with us, looking out for us, taking care of us. I am certain you will feel that same spirit every day from now on, especially when you look at a picture of him his beloved, with whom he is now together again. May God Bless & Keep you, and make His face to shine upon you during this very difficult time. Love always,

Little Jimmy Keys

Whenever I look at the family pictures from my childhood, the times we spent visiting with Uncle Wyndell and the entire Carter family at their Vienna homestead always fill my heart with joy. I can honestly say to the family from having lost my dad almost 20 years ago, who was one of Wyndell's closest friends, that he will never be forgotten, and that you will always feel like he is still here taking care of you...and he is. Love and Condolences to you all...
