    I am very sorry to hear of Mr. Boyd's passing. I always liked to visit with him at Antioch's homecomings. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

    Dusty and Amanda. I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Daddy/father-in-law. I know how you all will miss him but we know where he is ” feasting at the table” this Thanksgiving. We will have you in our prayers in the coming days.
