To Aunt Eva and family. I am so sorry to hear of Uncle Bubba's passing. It truly broke my heart. He reminded me so much of Pappa Morgan. I am sure that they(Pappa Morgan, Mamma Rhodia, and all of them) that has gone on before us are rejoicing while walking the golden streets of Heaven. Uncle Bubba will be truly missed and forever loved.
Love Always
