I am deeply saddened by the news of your loss. I pray that God will grant you the strength. My most sincere condolences.
I worked with him at the Perry plant. I have many good memories of him. He was a GOOD MAN!
We are so sorry for your loss, he was always so very nice when we saw him. When the weather was good you would always catch him out walking through our neighborhood and just as cheerful as he always was, smiling all the time. Prayers for your family.
