I am so very sorry to hear of Mr. Normans passing. He was such a kind man and I will miss our conversations so very much. (He frequented Eden Drug and that is where we would chat) I feel he is at peace and very happy to be reunited with Lois and "HOME" for Christmas. I will keep the family in my prayers.

To the family: Guerrant was such a lovely person. I have many fond memories of him and Lois; they were the perfect couple and I really couldn't imagine one without the other. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Lee, I‚Äö?Ñ?¥ve probably never met you. But, just wanted to express my gratitude to have known and worked with Guerrant over the years. He was a ‚Äö?Ñ??prince of a man‚Äö?Ñ?¥ of whom I‚Äö?Ñ?¥ve never heard an unkind word spoken. With his deep melodious voice, he was unmistakable on the phone, even before he announced himself. May the Lord unite Guerrant and Lois into his arms, bless and give them peace.

The last time we talked with Guerrant was on All-Saint's Day at Leaksville United Methodist Church. I remember his taking communion and praying at the altar. He shook John's hand as he passed our pew. He was a member of John's Sunday School class and was a wonderful, kind man. He was a true gentleman and was loved by many at our church. Sympathy to all of the family from the Ragans!
