    I am extremely sad He was my only friend I had made in 4 years of moving from Indiana ,, I worked with him at the lumber mill, we both took care of the mill dog very well , I had gotten sick and left the mill but I would see him at W. Mart and we would catch up with each others story's and I will miss him badly and the beagle dog of his . I knew it was near when I couldn't find him .
    Yes his smile helped me and talking to him because it gets lonely around here but now the best I've met down here is gone,,my best condolences .

    I am so saddened to hear this. He and I often saw each other at southern gospel Singings. I will miss his sweet presence. Praying for comfort, strength, and peace for the coming days and weeks.
