To Diane, Denise and Jimmy, I send you my deepest thoughts and prayers for comfort at this time in your lives. Your father was a good man and will be surely missed by all of us. I want you to know he meant a lot to my nephew and that Curtis realy enjoyed when he was able to talk to Gayther.... he always yelled out to tell him hello when he saw him in the backyard. If there is anything you need , do not hesitate to let me know. Von
