Dear Buddy,

Long before we're ready, we sadly say goodbye
But there are those in a far more beautiful place
Who are saying, "WELCOME HOME!"

Peaceful blessings to you and your family at this sad time,

Phyllis Hanniford & Graham Finch

Psalm 34:18 reads, "Jehovah is near to those that are broken at heart; and those who are crushed in spirit he saves." Yes, God is with you and your family to provide comfort. May you turn to him in prayer to give you the strength to endure all that you have in front of you. Please take care.

I will always remenber your father as a giving man, a great neighbor, a brother in Christ. I thank the Lord for friendship while attending Brentwood Baptist Church and going out together in the neighborhood sharing Christ. He will be missed by many, but we know we will be with again for those who are in Christ Jesus. I am thankful that Carol and I had been able to see your father before he left to his new massion prepared for him, I am sure he will be cherring us on as we continue the road that is set before us. Thank you Tim and Colleen for being there with your dad and being such a blessing to us as neighbors and a friend to my father. I will also remember him sitting in the chair reading the word and praying for all of us, oh and buying my first car from your dad, "The AMX Javelin" and going to Daytona 500. I wonder if the Lord built him a garage for him to work on engines? Nay, no need for cars there.
