Dear Marianne: Even though I haven’t seen Junie recently, I shall miss him. I always enjoyed visiting you all at your home and he was always welcomed me. It was fun looking at all of your souvenirs and treasures from your trips. Also enjoyed the tea, coffee, sandwiches, and “fatty goodies”. Love and prayers, Shirley
Dear Mrs. Frazier,

Henderson always had a warm smile and a laugh to share, even at the dentist’s office! It is with fondness that we remember him today and always. Love, Patty and all the staff at Dr. Gore’s office.
It was nice to hear more about my Grandad from others at his service Friday morning. I feel like i learned a little more about my Grandad. He will be greatly missed. Love u too Nan.
Mrs. Frazier,
I admire your wit and your humor. You are a very special lady and I know that your husband was blessed. The bible says that he that has found a wife, has found a great thing. The time that you and H.S. have shared I know will be treasured forever. Thank you for allowing me the time and opportunity to serve you. May God Bless You.
Sincerely, Tracy Bradshaw
