We were very sorry to hear of "Uncle Vernal's" passing. We have heard many stories about him from our late Nana Barbara. We are happy to know the history behind the family and our children know it well. You are in our thoughts and prayers and may you be comforted by your sweet memories.

Annetta and family, I was so sorry to read about your father's passing. He was such a sweet, quiet person. When I was a little girl, I remember him in that back room, where the alcove is now, with his headphones on. I thought he was so special because he wore those headphones and watched the needles bounce on the old sound equipment. He and your mother were dear people and I know they are now with the Lord and my mother rejoicing in Heaven. As you go through these trying times, I'm sure that thought keeps you going. Again, my condolences to you all. Jill
