To My Family; Dad's passing has left a hole in our hearts no one can ever fill, but I believe together we all make that hole little bit smaller. As Dad would say, we may not have it all together but together we have it all! To my big sis Kathy (Uni), your laughter will always make my day. To my little sis Pam, your gift of song and poem comfort me. To my only brother Michael (Bubba), I'm counting on you to watch over us just as Dad watched over you. He left you a wonderful example to follow. Dad loved us all in a very special way and I'm so proud. And Mom, you will probably get tired of looking at us because we will never leave you alone just as you never left Dad. We will keep our promise to take of you! I Love You All So Much. Sherry

Everybody thought the world of Grover. He always had a smile and something nice to say. I remember when I was growing up whenever we would go over to visit he would always have something funny to say. He was a really good person.

I already feel a void that will never be filled. No one can ever know how much I loved this man. He will be missed forever by all who knew him. I've always felt like "one of the girls" and I felt very privileged to have had the relationship with Grover that we had. I will miss him forever. He was "my best buddy".
