I was so sorry to hear about Meredith's death. Way too young and handsome to pass away. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. I still go home to "our" church and keep up with you all. Love Joyce

I thought a great deal of Meredith. He and I were good friends when he attended Pound High School, and when Open Door Tabernacle and Independent Bible Church had activities together, I certainly enjoyed them - a lot, because of Meredith.

Cheryl and family, I am so sorry about your loss, but I know that Meredith is rejoicing with the angels in heaven right now. I will never forget the kind words he delivered or the concern Meridith exhibited while I was going through a tough time of my own. I feel honored to have known Meredith for the short time I knew him and am sure his words and deeds have touched many others in the community. Love and prayers, Renee
