    I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Smith’s passing. He taught me Drafting and Design At Co-Lin, a career I was in my entire life. He was a great teacher and I have many fond memories of him. My prayers will be with the family during this difficult time.

    I am so sorry for your loss. I made friends with Mr Ed at the Lincoln County Library. I loved talking with him. He is fondly remembered.

    Lance, Lorne, Lane,
    I loved your mom and dad. I remember y’all visiting our drafting classes at Co-Lin. Your dad and Herman Cavin gave me the gift of my lifelong career as a drafter. They were both so special to me. I’m so very sorry I can’t attend the visitation or services tomorrow due to prior commitments, but will be praying for your family.
