So sorry to hear about the loss of Leonard. I am hardly in South Point anymore and I just happened to see this in the paper. When I looked it up I found Glenda's also. If I had known earlier I would have stopped by to give my condolences in person. Eve (Brumfield) Orosz

I was sorry to hear about your dad. You may not remember me but your Dad was the minister for Carter Christian Church in Carter City a long time ago when you lived in Grayson. We used to visit each other. I always wondered where you went when you moved. Once again sorryfor your loss.
