To James and all the family, David and I are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. May God help you through this tough time.

Dear Greg And Deanna, As you both know, your Dad was one of our dearest friends. We went on many trips together, ate out together frequently, enjoyed fellowship at each other’s homes and belonged to the same church and Sunday School. Many fond memories and feel fortunate to have him as a special friend. We know you will miss him too, but fortunate to have him for the many years you did. With love, Sam & Jan Luntsford

My earliest memory of Alan is making "roads" and digging "tunnels" with him in my backyard dirt pile. When I was two, my family moved from Boston to Mt Vernon Ave in Needham. Mom was pleased, I am sure, to find that a boy just three months younger than I lived across the street. Aland and I remained playmates and buddies throughout our school days. Those memories will never be lost. I thank the several contributors to this site for their memories of Alan's later years.

Very sad to hear about Elmer's passing. Your family and friends are in my prayers. I worked with Elmer at NAP in Arden and Elmer was our HR Manager. Very fun and energetic, he always kept us on our toes, both professionally and as a friend. I really enjoyed working with you buddy!

I worked with Jim at the Augusta Chronicle. A kind, incredibly intelligent man with an unflappable personality, he was a hero to admire and a professional to emulate. My condolences to his family and friends.

Janice, I am so sorry for you loss. You and your family are in my prayers

“To be absent from the Body is to be present with the Lord.” What a glorious day for her to meet her Savior face to face. Well done thy good and faithful servant...enter thou into the joy of the Lord. She is already experiencing the celebration with Him”

A beautiful memorial of a beautiful lady -✨ Amy, Wade and famiky, I am so sorry. I will be praying for you all in the days ahead.

AShe could be forgotten if you met her. When she walked into a room; she got everyone’s attention, always full of life. Her voice was amazingly beautiful. Never had voice lessons. She was one of favorite people.

I have so many memories of Aunt JoAnn. She will always be cherished.

Praying for strength and comfort for you and your family. ♥️

Ed was a smart businessman, dedicated to Henderson county and his Gamecocks, and personally to me, a loyal friend to my family. I so enjoyed spending time at their home, and made to feel especially loved. Peace be with Veronica & Robert, their family, his staff, and Betty.

We have lost a dear friend and neighbor. RIP. Our prayers go out to Jim, the girls, and family.

Deepest condolences to the family, his dear friend Betty and his beloved Bugger and kitties on the passing of Ed. I was a companion for Ed for several months (until the Corona Virus) and we shared some lovely times. It was football season and Ed was a huge Gamecocks fan. I often teased him that I couldn't believe he got me back into football after 35+ years!! We enjoyed laughs about that and he was proud of it!! Ed was a sweet and kind soul and I will miss him dearly. Rest In Peace and the light of the Lord, Ed.

Dear Dennis and family, I so sorry for your loss. My prayer are going to you and your family.

So glad to have known Ed. He was such a nice man. So very sorry for your loss.

I enjoyed working with Ed in my capacity of a Marketing Representative with Lititz Mutual Insurance Company visiting the agency on a regular basis the past 20 years. I always found Ed very warm, a pleasure to work with and he always made me feel welcome when I was in the agency up until his retirement. I offer condolences to the family and staff of Sutherland Insurance Agency on behalf of all the employees of Lititz Mutual Insurance Company.

I was fortunate enough to work with Ed providing insurance coverage for his emergency service organization for the past 30 years. Ed was a true gentlemen, good friend to me and his customers and will be missed by many. We will all miss him so much.

So sorry about Ed's passing. May God bless & comfort you.

I will forever be grateful for the time he spent with my dad, Grant Pace and his wife, Louise. They looked forward to his visits and phone calls. They loved him very much and considered him a special nephew. My condolences to his family.

I met Larry when he came to work for Boeing in Seattle. I was the mechanic that took care of his yacht “White Wind”. He was a fine gentleman and a fine person. He was missed by many people when he left this area. Fair winds and following seas Larry.

Our deepest condolences. I've had to crawl in the back of an ambulance on more than one occasion with her when tending to a sick child at school, and once my child at home. She was an amazing woman. She did her job, and left no room for question (because you knew she knew what she was doing), and tempered it with care and compassion. We are a part of the HFD family, and though our meetings there and at other stations, we developed a real love and respect for her. She will be missed.

So sorry for the loss of this amazing woman. Rena will be greatly missed. “Wherever you go, wherever you may wander in your life, surely you know, I’ll always wanna be there.”

My thoughts and prayers are with your family.

I loved our sunday talks, she was a very kind aunt, and we were very close. She will be missed by everyone, that had the pleasure of knowing her

I have only known Rena since I started working at The Lodge earlier this year. She was a pleasure to work with and always very kind and welcoming to me. She shared with me her medical issues but had such a brave determination. I am so sorry that your mother, friend, daughter etc was taken from you so soon. She will be missed.

Ocie, Libby, Tim, Kristen, and Family. You all have the most heartfelt condolences and sympathy from my family and from Charles N Stinnett brother from Gulf Shores AL. I will keep you in my prayers, Only God can help you through these times. God Bless you all Dickie

Ocie, Libby and Family, I was so sorry to hear of Rena's death! Our love and prayers are with you. May God give you His strength and grace, for this time, and in the days to come.

I am so sorry for everyone’s loss! Rena you were a force of nature! I have thought about you often and have missed you! I always loved you! Rena, Libby, and I were a mess together and always had fun! I will forever miss those times!

So many wonderful memories of Aunt Ruth and Uncle Frank, especially at “Uncle Frank’s Lake” near Danbury and later at Lake DeVenoge. Aunt Ruth will be truly missed by our family. She was so special to all of us. Rest In Peace, Love you!

Janice worked with my mom and dad for a number of years and was just a delight to be with and brought so much to the business, just like it was hers . She always took pride and ownership in all she did. She was such a kind and thoughtful person. When my parents were elderly and frail Janice came by to visit them and bring joy and goodies to them a couple times a week for many, many years. She was my moms “daughter” and confident and they had a very close relationship. She will be sorely missed by everyone that had the privilege and opportunity to know her. Cuz, Rest In Peace. You will always be remembered and loved.

Aunt Ruth was a very special aunt to me. She treated me as a daughter. Many fond memories of her & was fortunate enough to be able to visit her several times. Such wonderful memories & lots of pictures!! She was so very special & will be missed....

So sorry to hear this sad news. I really enjoyed our time working together at DAWC. My sympathies to the family.

Vanessa and Dwaine, We send our love and prayers to all of the family. Janice was such a lovely lady and we enjoyed the times we were able to talk with her. God bless and comfort all of you. Uncle Glenn and Aunt Susie

We met in Jr high school and my life was changed by knowing Rena. She sat by my hospital bed after a car wreck I was in and kept me laughing the whole time. You are pain free now my friend and will be missed. TIP and keep em laughing on the other side.

Believe it or not I am a better pastor because of her. I am a better person. I love you Rena the last conversation we had a couple of weeks ago you said I know you love me so yes by all means pray for me. You are a beautiful person who taught us beyond words.

I'm sorry for your loss of Janice. She was such a nice lady. Keith and I both enjoyed our conversations with Janice during the time she would be walking the dog. She would always stop and talk with us. She always made us laugh. "We will definitely miss her." She has proceeded to move on up with the rest of the Angels.

Praying for your pain and sorrow

Dear Jim & Sue: Your mother sounds like such a fantastic woman...I would have loved to be able to have met her. My prayers are with you and your family on your loss.

She was such a beautiful lady I always loved to hear her talk in her broken english

Our lives will never be the same without Rena. Mrs. Stinnett, Libby, Kristin, Kimby, all of you...our family is so sorry for your loss. Rena was a force of nature and made a real difference in every life she touched. I (Cyndi) could NEVER win a battle of the wits with her. Every time I think of her, I smile. We all do. Thank you for sharing her with us.

He was my first love, my dear, trusted friend for 82 years. His was the only phone number I had memorized. How often I have already gone to the phone to call him. I will miss him until I join him in the heavenly choir.

I remember when we first met in highschool. We ate lunch together with a bunch of our friends. We laughed and had so much fun. Everyone wanted to sit at our table. Our friendship has continued and we have grown closer through the years. I will miss her beyond words....always my dearest friend...ME AND YOU!

Aunt Jean loved Allyson,&Ben & Family

Jean loved Allyson, Ben, & Family

Dwaine and Vanessa so sorry to hear about Janice She was a kind and sweet niece

I remember spending many good times with your family. The family canoe trip stands out most. I love the same poem that was her favorite. I’m sure she’ll take 8020 Tango for her last flight. My condolences to you all.

Anne was my mother's, Elizabeth Schucker, pilot then next year co-pilot as they flew in women's races. My mother passed early in her young life and now Anne has reconnected with my mom. What an exceptional pair of women they were. We will miss Anne and her contributions to society.

Anne was a very beautiful and kind woman! I went to her home back when Jim and I were in Junior High School for a Halloween party. While bobbing for apples, I went down a bit too far and came up soaked. Anne didn't want me to spend the rest of the evening soaking wet, so she gave me a blouse of hers to wear! Funny that I still have that Halloween memory from almost 60 years ago about Jim's lovely mother! Rest in Peace!

I only knew Mildred for a short period of time before her passing, but as soon as I met her, I came to love her. She had a light about her and radiated goodness. Every time I left her presence, I felt happier and felt like being a better person. She and Hans are wonderful and I am grateful for the opportunity I had to be around Mildred. I send my love and condolences to Hans and family at this time!

I love you momma. My promise to you is almost complete. I have so many happy memories of you . No one can take them away

We are sorry for your loss, Mitch. We have many good memories of Jean.

As a young girl and before he combed my hair all to one side and told me I looked like Veronica Lake! He was so sweet, gentle and kind. I miss you Larry!! I’ll miss your gorgeous uplifting posts on FB and I’ll miss being able to call or see you again!! I Love You! Your sister Julia Elizabeth Clarkson Wittman

Elaine, My love, prayers and deepest sympathy to you and your family. I'm so sorry for your loss. She was blessed with a very long life.

We will always remember Mildred for her grace, kindness, and wisdom. When we moved to NC 20 years ago, we were so grateful for Hans’ and Mildred’s friendship. We had also lived in Hong Kong , and enjoyed having that experience in common with them. We also loved the faith strengthening counsel Mildred would often share with us. A beautiful lady- she will be missed by all who knew her.

We have many great memories of being with Mildred and Hans in Hong Kong and in Flat Rock. We did many things together when we were both expatriates in Hong Kong. They introduced us to the Flat Rock area when they retired there and invited us to visit with them. We decided to retire to WNC because of the help that Mildred and Hans gave us. So we are thankful to consider them good friends. We will be making a contribution to The Salvation Army in memory of Mildred.With love, Gerald and Ann

Love and prayers, Elaine and family.

Prayers for all the family. Uncle Mitchell know that Roddy and I are thinking and saying a special prayer for you. Rest In Peace Aunt Jean.

In memory of my sweet, loving grandma who was beautiful inside and out. Love always.

Thank you for raising such a wonderful son. Rest in peace

Jasmine. I am so sorry for the loss of your brother. Prayers for you and your family.

Dennis, my wife, Barbara, and I are so sorry for your loss. May time heal your sorrow.

Lois' kindness and thoughtfulness was demonstrated in the fact that she always kept in touch with another volunteer from the Sandburg Home who was aging and in a nursing home. She knew that I always cared about him and sent him cards as well, and she called me regularly to update me about him. She was a crusader, always working for more comfortable uniforms or other improvements at the Sandburg barn. She will be missed.

Sending love, thoughts and prayers! Remembering all the good times from days gone by. Phil was a sweet, kind, good man, and will be sorely missed. May memories you've shared give you comfort and peace.

Dennis and family, Vinny and I are very saddened by the loss of Marylin. She was always full of life and laughter. We had not seen you both for some time but always enjoyed spending time with her. May you find comfort in each other and know you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Jean was a very special lady. She was very firm and loved all the children she met. She never hesitated to tell you she loved you and was always encouraging. She has been a blessing to me and my family and I will never forget her kindness and love! Mitchell and family, if there is ever any you need please do t hesitate to let me know, you all are in my prayers. Love you all

With deepest sympathy, it was a privilege to have known and attend church with Mrs. Jean. God Bless!!!

Aunt Jean, I loved you so and I am so happy you are at rest and enjoying your Heavenly Home. All of your children are missing you but you helped and loved each of us as was needed. I Thank God I had you to help raise me. ❤️

My prayers to Mitchell and the whole family for strength in the coming days. I am truly sorry for your loss.

Sweet Michael....I didn’t know him extremely well but every time he has ever been in my house he was a respectful, kind-hearted soul who had a huge heart and was always willing to help with anything. The last few times he came over it was just as I was coming home from grocery shopping and he always helped me carry them in. When he left the last time I teased him saying come back next Wednesday, same time, same place! Rest In Peace Michael I will always remember you fondly

Aunt Jean you were always there for me I love and miss you tell I see you again

Aunt Jean you were always there for me my heart brakes i miss you so much tell i see you again.

The best sister one could ever ask for . She is with the love of her life Jesus.

Karl, Lois will be missed in our Timber Creek neighborhood. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dottie and family, we are so sorry for your loss. We are praying for peace and comfort.

Dennis, I am sorry to read of your loss and loss is an understatement. You and Marilyn have been each other's anchor and support to many others. The fun we all had on many occasions at 28 Center St. with Uncle Windy and Aunt Vicky. Hopefully, I will see you and the family when you have your gathering at Zoar, and please one of you call me if you need help with anything at this end. If anyone knew how to celebrate life, know that it is a gift, and know the uncertainty and brevity; it was Marilyn. May she rest in peace and rise up in glory..Dan Jowdy

Marilyn Thompson

I never had an opportunity to meet and know Anne Wiley personally, but I knew she had been instrumental in the work of P.E.O. a worthy organization to which I belong.

Lois was a wonderful volunteer at Carl Sandburg Home. She had a great love for the animals and was very compassionate and helpful when I became ranger. Her enthusiasm for educating others was impressive and she inspired many guests to learn more about goats and the Sandburg story. She will be missed greatly by the staff, volunteers, and goats.

Dear Dennis, Izzy and Family, I am so sorry to have read of Marilyn's passing. I enjoyed working with her at Derm Assoc. but always enjoyed knowing her from before that. She was a wonderful person, inside and out. You are so right that she will make an excellent angel. Stay strong and keep loving memories always. Donna Kolessar Stelzel

Such a shock as we spoke on the telephone about 3 weeks ago. We were members of the HVL Welcome Club together.

Aunt Marilyn will be greatly missed by many. We all have such great memories to carry on & keep her spirit alive. My deepest sympathies to all of my family.

Our deepest condolences for the entire family.

Dennis, Debbie, Izzy and Christa, We are very sorry for your loss! Marilyn was a wonderful, sincere, fun loving person, always had a smile on her face! Please know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers! Love, Carol, Roger and family

RIP Tommy. Just heard of your passing. It is with great respect for the family to share what type of person Tommy was at work. When I first started there, he welcomed me and from that day on, we communicated on a regular basis. He would check in on me or I would check on him and just say hi. His stories were endless and when it was time to get back to work, after talking to Tommy, you were always in a better place than when you first started talking. He loved his family and talked nonstop about them. He was always there to help everyone and always did a sigh and say we will get through this because there were some rough days trying to get through the deadlines. If I always needed anything even if it was not in his territory, he would always call and say, you need help and I can do this. He will be sadly missed and know his spirit will live on in each of his children. What a very nice and genuine man.

Dennis, Debbie, Izzy, and Christa. I am saddened to hear of y’all’s loss. Mrs. Thompson was a wonderful woman and will be greatly missed. Y’all are in my thoughts and prayers

Love and prayers to the whole family. I haven't seen Michael since he was very young yet it breaks my heart to see another young person lose the battle of addiction. Sincere condolences and may God give you strength and comfort during this hard time. LuAnne and family

I am so sorry to know that my Aunt Lois has passed. I am sending prayers of peace and comfort during this terribly sad time.

Beth, you and your family are in my prayers. May you find peace in knowing you will meet again one day!

The loss of Lois is saddened all of us. As a daughter of the American revolution she most honorably lived their motto of God, home and country may she rest in peace.

Debby and family.......you are in our thoughts and prayers. Cherish your memories.

Debby and family......you are in our thoughts and prayers. Cherish those memories.

Beth, Iam thinking of you and your family. You are also in my prayers. I pray that God will give you strength and peace during this time. Love you!

Deepest sympathy to Karl & Family from Helen, Dan & Family, Australia. Thinking of you all at this very sad time.❤️

Last time we met up was in Las Vegas. Fond memories.

Enjoyed working with Lois at Sandburg. She loved the goats and our two barn cats. She will be missed by all the volunteers at the Barn.

Lois was an inspiration to me as a newer barn volunteer in 2017. She did good work and is remembered fondly by her Sandburg volunteer friends.

My thoughts and prayers; may she Rest In Peace. Big hug Beth; my deepest condolences to your family especially your father.

Thoughts and prayers for Dallas and family. She was a wonderful stubborn full of life lady. She will be dearly missed here on earth but will see her again soon.

She is so loved by many and will truly be missed by everyone. Many prayers for the friends and family of such an incredible spirit.

My condolences you and your family. Torrey you were A wonderful friend and most of all a wonderful Father.

I still can’t believe this has happened...Can’t bring myself to say the words. We are so much alike in so many ways and I always admired your strength and conviction, you’re unwavering love for you son and our shared love for his and Nico’s curls. Then there was Our Dale and Our Jimmy. You never complained through all of this nightmare. You comforted us. You fought and held true to yourself. I love you. I miss you. I know you’re here and I expect many shenanigans from you and Dale until we meet again. Throw me a prank from time to time so I know you guys are there. Love you chick! You’re the original Badass!

Becky, you will be missed soooo much we had good times together went to school together worked together and always laughed together. You fought a hard battle. Someday we will be together again, I will always love you.

I was so very sorry to hear of Mr. Berg's passing. I worked for him for about four years (on and off) at Allan's Pharmacy and he truly was a great man. I still have very fond memories of him teaching me different parts of the business and a lot of those lessons have stayed with me ever since. I also really enjoyed going to Braves and Falcon's games with him when we used to charter trips down to Atlanta. My thoughts and condolences go out to his family.

Many great thoughts of spending time with Uncle Gary and family when we were younger. May his family find peace.

Michael will be greatly missed . He was very hardworking individual. RIP

Michael Taylor was a very good man and a hard working individual. He will be greatly missed by many. The family and friends have my upmost condolences. So sorry to hear about his loss .

For anyone that allowed another to witness the challenging parts of their life is a gift. Thank you Michael for letting me walk with you , if even for a short while.

We are so very sorry. Michael helped us on our farm and at our cabin. He was always a joy to be around.

I love you

He was my nephew, he really had a high heart, and loved me as much as I loved him, even though we fought like crazy. The pic I uploaded he's not asleep. He's listening to me gripe, LOL

He is my cousin by marriage never did I personally heard anything bad about him it was always good. Expect his struggles with addiction but he was tryna do better and from experience it is hard asf to do it fast it does take time to do better and win the battle between addiction. But Rest in paradise Lil Michael you gone but never forgotten you left this world too young :(.

So sorry, Betty, I am praying for you and your family. Love you, Joyce (Granny) Ward.

So many good memories. He was one of my best friends . We had a tight bond. We had been friends for 10 yrs now. Remeber one year he bought a bunch of fireworks and we had none so he got them and came got me and my daughter and we set off all of them and it was awesome. He had such a big heart. He would give you the shirt off his back. If he had it and you didnt he would give it to you. I will miss him . I will miss him calling just to talk and have few laughs. Rest easy my friend.

Too many good memories to choose just 1! I love you Michael sail on across the sky!

“ At the root of all addiction is pain .” “ addiction is a prison where the locks are on the inside, not the outside .” —- @ahealthyplace.com

Michael , I regret our family wasn’t closer ( I didn’t keep in touch ) and we didn’t see each other more. I was quite a bit older than you , but you were blood. I remember you coming to help m when I had a terrible water leak ( pipes in the kitchen) you refused to let me pay for anything more than parts. You also came with Papaw and we built the fence around my property( Papaw at like age 85 or so .) It took several days and you manned the auger. You were always willing to lend a hand. You had a big heart! God speed Michael , peace be with you now, and tell papa Taylor and Mamaw I ❤️ them !

Dear Barbara, I'm so sorry I'm late in sending my condolences. I'm very grateful for the time Charlie gave us at The Healing Place. I have no doubt that he made a great impact in the lives of the children we served with our school programs. I learned a lot from Charlie for he never stopped teaching. May the Lord lovingly comfort and strengthen you during these difficult times.

Dear Michael, Rachel, and Matthew, your dad was a fun loving guy and good company whenever we got together. Our family so enjoyed having him as a neighbor! Tom was a very generous man and loved to bless us and others too! I admired a painting in his antique shop and one day he surprised me with it! It hangs over my fireplace and will always be a wonderful reminder of our dear friend! I’m sad to hear Tom’s gone but, because Jesus was his Savior and is ours, I know we’ll see him again! Till then, I pray God comfort you all with His love and peace! ❤️

Best wishes and condolences to the Bader Family. May fond memories give you peace.

Sorry Jason Jacob and Josh y'all r in my prayers I love y'all rip uncle Tony love you forever and always gob bless to the hoots family u all r in my prayers

Bob and I enjoyed getting to know Bob while taking him to church once every month. He was such a gentleman with many good stories and a good sense of humor. It was a pleasure for us to be with him. We offer our condolences to his family who he often talked about. May he rest in peace.

Our thoughts go out to the entire family from our school community at AVMS.

John K. Hill was a true Southern gentleman who lived life with humor and joy. He was a delightful host at any occasion, sharing his wit and impressive knowledge on many interests. Farewell, dear John, as you cruise beyond the horizon to the beautiful Paradise beyond. You will be deeply missed.

On behalf of Apple Country Woodcrafters, I would like to extend our sincere condolences to Bob's entire family. God bless you all at this difficult time.

Evans and I enjoyed the years we had the privilege of driving Bob to Trinity Presbyterian Church on the first Sunday of each month. He shared many interesting stories with us. His thirst for knowledge at an advanced age was an inspiration for us. He will be missed by Trinity and the community. We share your sorrow, Sarah Thibodeau

Dear Beautiful Rachel - I just heard of your dad's passing this afternoon. I am so very sorry. I didn't know him but he must have been an awesome man to raise such a compassionate, loving and fun daughter. May Jesus hold you during this difficult time and fill you with His peace. Sending much love and lifting you and your family up in prayer. ~Naomi

Tom: I will miss you Neighbor. Rest In Peace, my friend!

"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation. I Cor. 1:3 My sincere condolences to Ron's family and dear friend, June with the passing of a wonderful man and friend. Ron was so faithful to walk my "Buffi" very early in the morning due to my physical incapabilities whether rain, snow or ice for two years. He truly loved animals and especially "The Buff" as he called her. Ron shared so much of his VERY interesting life of his work and travels around the world and had a phenomenal memory of history. I'm so thankful to God that our paths crossed here in the mts. of North Carolina for these past three years.....he definitely touched my life. I now have the comfort and assurance that Ron is resting peacefully in the arms of his Heavenly Father and he will never be forgotten. "Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him." James 1:12 Ron will truly be missed, but not forgotten and I will look forward to hearing more stories when me meet again in Heaven.

Millie was a kind gentle woman whom I came to admire on moving to Donald Ross Drive in Pinehurst. She was a good bridge player and such fun at games. Please know that I am thinking of all of you and the good memories of a long well-lived life. Sue Scherff

I had the pleasure of having Mr. Freitus as a 7th grade teacher at Nashua Catholic Jr. High School back in the late 1980s. The passion he had for teaching and sharing his vast knowledge with others was unparalleled. I always looked forward to his classes and still find myself thinking about various things he would in class to this day some 33 years later. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. Brent

Charlotte and Jim were the best neighbors, always willing to help in any way. It was so fun to stop and talk with them they always had the most interesting stories about their lives. And then after Jim passed seeing Charlotte continue Jim's love of having a beautiful yard even when she was so sick herself. She was an inspiration to all who knew her especially Mark and I. She loved her "boys" as she called them and butterflies and doing puzzles!! That sweet smiling face and the talks we had will be missed!!

Chris was a great friend! We had alot of great times! He will be missed by all.

I am just now learning of Brian's passing and I am so sorry. Brian was in the dorm room next to me our freshman year at ASU. We had no contact after our freshman year in college but I woke up thinking about him this morning unexpectedly for some odd reason. I casually decided to look him up online and find out what happened to him only to discover he passed away just 2 weeks ago. My heartfelt condolences to his wife and children. I know what sort of a person he was as a freshman at 18 (kind, funny, loyal), but from all the comments posted here I can say he turned into a wonderful husband, father, and friend. He will be missed!

She was so kind to my Jonboy he loved her so!! Especially her food. We enjoyed many good meals and shared wonderful memories. I will always cherish; Dale, I’m so sorry please know my thoughts and prayers are with you all. When you release the butterflies she will be watching and smiling down on you. Such a beautiful way to memorialize her.

I’m so sorry for the loss of sweet Charolette; she was a great mom, friend and very special person. I know she’s happy to be with her loving Jim.

I'm gone to miss you brother you was a good brother to me you was there for me when I needed you rip love you with all my heart all way will love your brother Eric

Al was one of the nicest people I know. I met him at Tarheel Lanes a number of years ago and he was always ready to help with getting us registered in bowling tournaments as well as finding hotel rooms for everyone. I was also elected secretary of one of the leagues and he actually came to my home on two separate occasions to help me get the software for the league set up. Al was a fantastic person and will be missed by so many. Thoughts and prayers are with the family.

Chris was a great friend! We had a lot of good times! He will be missed by all!!

Chris was like a brother to me, he always helped me out when I ask for any favors. He was a kind man a gentle giant. He adored his wife and kids and was a kind soul, I miss seeing you daily my friend. All my love to you Jessica and to the family.

I was so sad to hear about Allan's passing. I had known him since the early 1980's when he was running Allan's Pharmacy in Hendersonville and over the years I have tried to stay in touch with him from time to time either in person or over the phone. Back in the 1980's, Allan helped me out with a number of things and I have always liked and admired him. He was a very special man and will no doubt be missed by many people whose lives he has touched in some way. My sincere condolences go out especially to his daughters Kathleen and Donna and all of his family members as well as his many close friends.

Allan was a amazing boss and friend he was here for so many of my family members my husband, son and so many of my nephews and great nephews they would go to ball games with him twice a year they was his rat pack that is what he called them and they all loved him and would do anything for him. He was like a father to me and my husband, a grandfather to our son and great grandfather to my two grandchildren. We had birthday parties, Halloween parties and Christmas parties together he will always be in our hearts.

Allen was instrumental in my pharmacy career. He taught me so much (some pharmacy related, some not) and helped me get into pharmacy school. I even worked for him as pharmacist a few evenings. My sympathies are with the family and friends. He was one of a kind, and I will never forget him.

Our Sympathies to you all. She was a fine lady and very good person.

Dear Cotty my thoughts are with you at this time. What a beautiful lady you shared so many happy and fruitful years with.

Happy time spent at 725 Donald Ross Drive when my wife Anne and I were beautifully hosted by Ed and Millie for 14 days of the University of Edinburgh golf team visit to Pinehurst In September 2002. A beautiful home and such wonderful kind hosts. My introduction to humming birds at close quarters.

Our thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Allan gave me my first real job working the front register at the pharmacy when I was in high school, around 1996. I remember him always being patient and generous and cracking jokes. My sympathies to Allan's family and to the many people whose lives he touched.

Our heartfelt sympathy to Cotty,Carol and Susan from the Mitten family. Memories are many of our times together in West Chester. Betty Mitten. Barbara Mitten Hancock

So sorry to hear of your loss.. My heart and prayers are with Jason, Jacob and Josh and all the family.

So sorry to hear of your loss.. My heart and prayers are with Jason, Jacob and Josh and all the family. RIP Uncle Tony

Michael was my friend who I worked with in the orchard on deep gap loop road. Tony could come to me when he needed help with anything he will be missed a lot .He was like a brother to me .i love you brother.ill see you on the other side and we'll go fishing again.sorry for your loss may he RIP

So sorry for your loss. Our hearts and prayers go out to family and loved ones

So sorry for your loss. Y'all are in my prayers.

Michael could always make us laugh and there are so many special memories. We will miss you Michael.

Allan was my father-in-law, but I always thought of him as a second father to me. He took me fishing with him and to ball games on the famous bus trips he organized to Atlanta. I will really miss our weekly phone conversations about sports, politics, and his many questions to me about growing plants. He helped me fix things around the house and advised me on many topics. He will always be with me and I will always think about him! It truly was a pleasure knowing him these past 25 years.

Sandra & family, So sorry for your loss. Cherish all the good memories you shared as a family. Sharon Thompson King & Tommy King

Michael was a good friend from when we were kid he will be truly missed.

So sorry for your lost, my deepest condolences

Debbie and family, John and I are sorry for your loss of Tony. May God be with you at this time.

On Sunday a very big part of my life past away. I am so sad and broken hearted. I went to work for Allan at “Allan’s Pharmacy”and worked with him for 18 years. Allan encouraged me to better myself and insisted I become a Pharmacy Technician. He became a friend and Was by my side for the duration of his life. All of my extended Family loved seeing Allan and expected to see him at family events. I am So thankful for him being a part of our lives. Allan was with me through the death of both my parents and the birth of both my children. Allan became the God-grandparent to both Dallas & Paige. He encouraged Dallas to become a pharmacist and he got to see him graduate pharmacy school in May on the Computer, because of the virus. Allan never missed a birthday or holiday with our family. He went to soccer games and dance recitals. He even went on some vacation with us, taking Dallas on his first airplane ride & Bungee jumping and taking Paige to her to her favorite place to dance, the Jamboree in Saluda. He took my children trick or treating when they were little and had as much fun as they did. Allan helped me put the greenhouse up at Saluda School just because he wanted to help me, knowing I didn’t have a clue. When Tom needed help erecting a building Allan was there every day until it was up.The list could go on an on. My condolences to Donna, Ray and Donald and to Kathleen and Steve and all of his family. Allan was one of a kind, very kind and a very special friend to me. Allan will be missed more than anyone will ever know. May God comfort you all.

Always tried to help people who couldn’t pay for prescriptions I worked there for years and he taught me and I loved him so much. He knew me since birth and was there until Allen’s pharmacy closed and met my husband there. He was a part of my life that I will never forget or be more greatful for.

Janet and family, You have our deepest sympathy. A loss of a mother is so hard. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

You have our deepest sympathy and love. The loss of a mother is so hard. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Brian was always a very sweet person. I went to high school with him and graduated with his sister Julie. So sad and sorry to hear of his passing. Thoughts and prayers go out to his sister Julie, his wife, and children . May the Lord give you comfort, strength and peace today and in the days ahead.

My first principal at my first full-time job as an educator. Thank you Gary for being one of the best!

Benny and family, I had the pleasure of working with Ruby for many years. She was so proud of you and spoke of you often. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Charlie was the volunteer who trained me to work at the Carl Sandburg barn. He entertained me and visitors with his many stories. In recent years, I sent cards to him because he gave so much to so many.

Charlie was one of the people who trained me to work at the Carl Sandburg barn. He entertained me and all who visited with his many interesting stories. In recent years I have sent cards to him because he gave so much to so many. He will be missed.

Carol, at the UU in Wilmington you have been missed and I'm so sorry about Gary. He introduced me in the Wilmington Seniors and was always so welcoming at the church and the links. My sincerest condolences to you and your family.

He was a great educator and I have many happy memories of time spent with him!

Loving, caring, and hard working Aunt. Gave wonderful hugs, kisses, hair braiding and taught me to loom. Always there for us when needed. My heart aches for her moving on.... A great love!!!! XOXOXOXO

I had the privilege of working for Bryan in New Bern, NC, He was so kind and caring towards us! I am so very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with your family & friends.

Mrs. Kimie was a beautiful soul and genuinely a great person to everyone. She will be greatly missed.

Praying for God's comfort for each of you I met Brian thru Adult Day such a kind person always willing to help anyone we will miss him

Judy wiseman ollis class of 87 avery high

Didnt know her but I sure didmost of the Cannon Family. I use to go Friday evenings with Gail to clean and cook supper at Connie's and Gracie's. I had many many good times there in Mtn Home with the Cannons.

I am so very sorry to hear this. I worked with Brian at RHA in New Bern and he was so very kind and helpful to me when our family lost everything in Hurricane Florence. He was a fantastic leader but more importantly an amazing and kind person. My heart and prayers go out to his family

I just met Brian about 2 weeks ago and we had a delightful conversation the first day my husband tried out Mountain Day Care. We made such a delightful connection talking about family and church. He seemed so nice and genuine. My heart and prayers goes out to all who knew and loved him.

I don't know what to say, I do say I'm sorry that it has to come to this! I love you and I'm always here for you...just remember that you have seen one set of Footprints in the Sand...God always carries us through it all

Bart my heart goes out to you after reading this. My prayers for you and the family. I wish I was there for you my brother. God Bless

Dena, I am so sorry to hear of Brian’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and the kids during this difficult time. I wish I could be with you and be able to say goodbye to a wonderful husband, father and human. I will treasure the time that I got to spend with you, Brian and the kids during that visit. Love, Hugs, and prayers to you all.

My condolences and prayers for your family. I never met or even had the opportunity to speak to Brian but I recently met one of his sons and couldn’t have been more impressed. Dena you and Brian obviously did a fantastic job raising Austin and I am sure the other children are just as wonderful. I am so sorry for your loss. I will be praying for you and your family.

Working with Brian was such a blessing. His kind heart and true compassion for others was was such a gift to MountainCare and to me as I gained a new friend. His bright smile and witty sense of humor will be truly missed. My prayers are with the family during this difficult time.

Dena, Jodi shared the sad news with me. So sorry for your loss. I have thought of you often over the years. You are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. May your memories bring you comfort.

Gary was a wonderful principal that I had the honor of being one of his teachers. He will be greatly missed!

My heart breaks for your family. You were the best supervisor anyone could have. I am grateful you're in a better place now. I wouldn't be here without you. You hired me and gave me a chance in Asheville during a hard time for my family, and for that I'll forever be thankful. You are and will be greatly missed.

Dena, I am so sorry for your loss. I didn’t know Brian but knowing who you are, he had to be a wonderful husband, father, and friend. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

So sorry to hear. Our Condolences to the family. She went thru RCIA with Phil in 2000, we made a friend and shared lots of laughs and stories. She was special for sure. Did not quite know what to make of Bart back then. She figured it out.

Brian dedicated his life to helping others. He was one of the kindest, and most patient people that I've ever worked with. I'm honored to have had the privilege of knowing such a compassionate soul. It isn't just anyone who can help a team of computer phobic therapists transition from paper to electronic medical records without losing patience, but he did. My thoughts and prayers are with his family that meant so much to him. I'll miss you, my friend.

Even though I only knew Brian remotely through an online community and a chat group, he was a dear friend and I considered him like a brother, he was an amazing guy, so kind hearted and I know that he loved his family so much. This is a huge loss and I am shocked, my deepest condolences to the family...

I am so sorry for your lost. Prayers and hugs goes out to you and your family!

Sending love and prayers to all of you who will forever miss her, even as I know you will celebrate her entry to her eternal heavenly home. I’m thankful for the chance to meet your sweet family and spend time with Kim. I will always remember her wonderful laugh, and we laughed... a LOT. Surely she is dancing with angels. Love to all of you.❤️❤️

I'm so sorry this broke my heart to hear. He was the best supervisor I have ever had. He was such a sweet funny person. He loved his family always bragging or talking about you all. He will be missed. Praying for you all

Dena I am so sorry. Prayers for comfort.

Though he was only on the MountainCare team for a short while the loss and sorrow has been great because of the man he was - kind, funny, smart, honest - a good soul. I send my prayers and love to each you.

So very sorry for your families loss. Thoughts and prayers are with you.

Joe, or Josiah as I knew him, was a dear friend and colleague. I met him when I engaged his services to assist us with rigging our ship for the HBO Emmy award winning series John Adams. Josiah was a great mentor and educator to me and my entire crew, teaching us how to tie knots, splice rope, sew sails, etc. He was patient and kind, warm and always humorous. His presence around our fabricating shop and on set was greatly enjoyed. His expertise was noticed by the director, Tom Hooper, who would solicit Joe's advice from time to time. Joe made an inestimable contribution to the filiming of that Emmy Award winning series, one which his family should be proud of. But then I imaginefor Joe it was just one of a long string of many wonderful accomplishements. I shall dearly miss my friend and will treause the memories of the time we spent in Mechanicsville, VA, back in 2005 and 2007.

To the Morgan and Staples family. So sorry to hear this sad news. Prayers for everyone. Special hugs for Bart.❤️

Bart I’m so very sorry. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Kim has been my friend for 30 years, we laughed together, cried together, and had so much fun together. She was such a joy to be around. My heart breaks for you Austin. I'm so sorry you lost your precious momma. Bart and the rest of the family, She definitely knew she was loved by all of you. I'm so sorry she is not here on earth for you anymore. I'm glad she is in Heaven and no longer dealing with illness. May the Lord give each of you peace and comfort in this very difficult time.

Bart and family, I’m so sorry for your loss. Kim was a very sweet person.

Charles Byrd was a member of the Richmond County Retired Educators and this association will surely miss him Our deepest sympathies to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.

Mike and I am so blessed to have meet Kimie and spend some time with her. I will miss how spiritual she was. May Kimie Rest In Peace. God has picked a very special angel to watch over you and your family

Sorry to hear of Charlie’s passing. I volunteered with Charlie at Sandburg Goat Barn for several years. His knowledge of Sandburg and the civil war always made for interesting conversation. And we both lived baby goats.

Love you brother miss you more every day I'm doing well I know you look over me I pray for you every night godbless you little brother

Sending our love and condolences to my aunt, Margee Weaver and her sons, Matthew and Michael and their families. I always remember Uncle Carl being in the middle of the action, especially the fun and games, at our many backyard gatherings at Nana Weaver and Grandpa’s home in New Holland. Uncle Carl was a great cook, and together with Aunt Margee and his mother, made the food served at The Barn in Vermont as much an attraction as the skiing! I loved our ski vacations there. Our deepest sympathy to Aunt Margee and her family in their time of loss. With love, Susan and Larry Karper

My deepest sympathy. Julianne Heggoy was one of my Spanish teachers at Blue Ridge Community College. She was a wonderful teacher and person. She had the class at her home once. I remember the llamas.

I never met Jack and after reading his incredible obituary, I should have. He was obviously full of life. When he and Rich meet-up in heaven, there will be one long, knee slapping conversation. Imagine all the lives he has touched? Just teaching mechanics, I’m sure he was modeling How To Be A Good Man to so many young men. His legacy will live on in his children and their children. I’m so glad he got to enjoy those granddaughters. He won’t be physically here but his spirit will continue to watch over you all. What a blessing to have had him as your husband, father and grandfather. Till you meet again, I pray for God’s great comfort to envelop you all.

Margee, our condolences to you and your family. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Rene and Tim Phinney

Tu nunca morirás en nuestros corazones, eres eterno por cada parte que nos distes en vida, bendiciones para toda la familia en estos momentos difíciles, los queremos.

Susan, Amy, Johnny, sorry to read about John's death. It gave me pause to reflect on those growing up years in Brevard. Margarette and I retired back to Brevard. May you find the strength that you need. Fondly, Ike

I will always remember the two of you dancing through the halls of your gorgeous wedding. Love you

Dearest Fay, I have felt something was very wrong. I am saddened to learn John passed away. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I’m here for you. John was a lucky man to have you and you were lucky to have John. I know he will be missed and will be in all our hearts. He always said, “I love you" when ya’ll left the office. He left us wonderful memories. Please accept my deepest condolences. Debbie

Mr. Byrd was a wonderful teacher who had great passion; he was also one of the younger members of the Richmond Academy faculty. I have very fond memories of my time with Mr. Byrd. Deepest sympathies.

While we grieve, heavens rejoices to welcome Charles to eternity with his Savior! Barbara and family may you feel God's love, grace, and mercy during this difficult time. May your hearts always warm with precious memories.

I met Charles when we were both pre-teenagers at Lake Park Baptist Church in Augusta, Georgia. We became good friends and spent a lot of time together, doing a lot of crazy things. We had a couple of other friends in sort of a little clique. Charles was the”brainy” one of the group...always inquisitive...always trying to figure out how things worked. We haven’ seen each other much over the years since leaving Augusta but we did talk to each fairly frequently. I’m the last one left of that “clique.” I’ll miss talking to him here, but I’m looking forward to resuming that relationship in heaven!

We pray for peace for your family at this difficult time. Fondly, All of us at Tucker Materials.

So sorry for your loss. Remember all the times we had at Crawford Avenue and how he served the Lord. Praying for you and your family

Mr. Byrd was one of my favorite teachers at ARC. I got such a fantastic free education there and was well-prepared for college. Mr. Byrd was always light-hearted and kind. Prayers for comfort for all of his family and friends. Know you have a big hole in your hearts now.

I met Charlie while working at the Carl Sandburg barn. He was so helpful, soft spoken and loved the goat kids. He was a Southern gentleman white beard included. We worked together many years and then he transferred to the Sandburg house to guide the tours. He even was asked to travel out of state as a representative for the Sandburg National Historic Site. A wonderful choice.

Barbara, Ruth and I send our deepest sympathy and condolences. Family friends since our days at Lake Park Baptist.

Knew Charlie during our time in The National Hills Lions. Club in the 1975 to 1985 time. He was a great friend and a very involved member. Lost contact when he moved to Hendersonville. Prayers for his family.

Mr Byrd was my English teacher my senior year at ARC. He taught us well how to create a term paper. I also was a member of Crawford Ave. Baptist Church. He was such a great example for me and the teenagers who knew him. We loved his humor and had such respect for him. What a wonderful life of example for others.

Charlie was a good friend and mentor. He selected me to be his assistant principal, my first job in administration. I am so thankful for his faith in me. When I was a teacher at Glenn Hills High School in Augusta and Charlie was the assistant principal, the two of us were walking from the bus area after school and happened upon two young men arguing. As we walked by, Charlie said, “Knock it off, guys. It’s Friday and I don’t want to deal with this.” We walked on and the two young men did, too.” He knew which situations could be left alone.

Nuestras más sinceras condolencias de parte de la Familia Hernández Moreno en Chicago.

Our condolences to you and your family. Charlie was a great friend and neighbor.

Sherry and family, I am so very sorry to hear about Jack's passing. I live on the other side of the lake from you, and even though I have not had the opportunity to meet you, I have had many great conversations with Jack. My family and I moved here about 10 years ago and I knew of Jack via his "posted" signs about a year before I actually got to meet him. I would tell my sons, "Fon't go over there, that is Jack's land". After I did meet Jack in person and told him about that he laughed and gave me that big grin. I walk down to the lake often and was always amazed at watching him mow that steep bank - he was hard-working and fearless. If you ever wondered why it took him so long to mow down there, it was probably because we were down there talking about old cars. I admired him, my sons admired him, and I hoped that I would get many more years learning more from such a smart and kind man. My wife and I want you to know that if you or your family need anything, you just yell and we will come running. Delane, Shari, Jonah, and Landon

It has been 6 yrs since you have been gone Daddy but it seems like only yesterday. I miss you so much. I wish you was still here. I know I am an adult but a girl still needs her Daddy no matter the age. I just need a hug from you. I need to hear you say that everything is going to be okay and that you love me. I just miss you.

We are sorry for your loss! We worked at Autumn Care with her! She was a good friend to us! Your all in our prayers! May God bless and comfort you all! We love you very much, Royal& Becky Southerland❤❤

With much sadness I send my condolences to Margee and the boys. Carl was my boss for 30 years. He was one of the kindest men I will ever know. I will miss him but am profoundly glad that he was in my life for all those years. Rest in peace my dear friend. With love and respect, Darcy and Pete

We were so sad to hear of Carl’s passing. Fond memories of growing up together at 107/109 East Broad Street, Carl was one of my first friends as we were born nine months apart. And many great times at The Barn skiing in Vermont in the 80’s. Our condolences to Margee and family in this time of loss.

In loving memory of my cousin, Carl Weaver. Although we didn't see each other very much, I remember seeing you whenever we traveled to Lancaster County to visit grandparents, aunts and uncles and cousins. Being an only child to my parents, Lloyd and Noris Ammon, my cousins were the closest things I had to siblings. My condolences to Margee and your sons at this time of grief. Sincerely, Kathy Ammon Gabriel

I'll never forget Novella and I eating lunch with jack, we were down town Hendersonville, when jack came driving up to meet us for lunch, he was driving a Cadillac Pickup truck, I looked at that thing and scratched my head, I said Jack I didn't know Cadillac made a pickup truck, this is the first one I ever seen, he looked at me and laugh and said, they don't I made it out of a Chev. pickup, it was spot on factory looking. It really looked like a brand new Cadillac Pickup, I'll never forget that thing. Thanks for memory's Jack. God bless the family.

Sending condolences to my Aunt Margee Weaver, and cousins Matthew and Michael Weaver. I have many fond memories of Uncle Carl. When I was young he always made me laugh so much. He could be quite mischievous sometimes! I remember spending a summer in Vermont with him and his family, staying there in the winter too for skiing vacations, and of course I remember body surfing and playing games on the beach with him at the Jersey Shore. And nobody could carve a Thanksgiving turkey like Uncle Carl! Great memories that I will always cherish. May he rest in peace. Love, Scott Weaver

Jack was my friend. It was an honor to serve this family for 30 years as their Nationwide Insurance Agent. He restored a vehicle for me which I will always cherish. Until I retired and sold my Agency in 2012 I would see Jack quiet often. He was always stating how proud he was of his Family. Later we watched our Granddaughters play soccer together. Thank you to the Jarvis family for sharing Jack with us. Prayers for all of you. Regards, Ronnie

13 Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope. 14 For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15 According to the Lord’s word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words. 1st Thessalonians 4:13.18

Sending thoughts and prayers to you all. Just a big gratitude to your beautiful marriage and family for teaching us all marriages do last till Death do we part.

Uncle Ralph i love u so much. I will miss u

Ron u were a great friend,I learned of your demise Today Sept 18,2020,I will have u in daily Prayer,forever.The Bahai World will miss u,see you again,God Bless U Always,Herb Turner

In memory of a wonderful individual, and a true local hero!

Dearly Loved Family of Ron (Ronny in 1950’s), Was grieved to her of the passing of dear Ron, a very spirited, jolly and heart warming man. Talked with him a few years ago, after some 63 years. We spent the ‘40’s & ‘50’s together in Miami, Florida, along with Alan Holmes and other youth. He had a crush on my sister, Barbara, (his own words) who was 4 years younger than he. Our prayers go forth for the fond memories and the progress of his luminous soul.

Your light will shine on

I had the privilege of working with Ryan for awhile at the detention center. He was very kind and funny and a very good guy. An example of his kindness and character that I will always remember is one time I was leaving work and heading to my car in the sheriffs office parking lot. I had a bunch of paperwork in my hands along with several other items, a big gust of wind came and the majority of the paperwork blew out of my arms and scattered across the entire parking lot, some even under vehicles. Even though he was in process of leaving, he got out of his car and helped me pick up every single paper, and insisted that he would get the ones that had blown under vehicles and were going to require me getting on pavement and crawling under vehicles to get. He did this without having to be asked and with a smile on his face. Even joking in attempts to make me less embarrassed about the event. It was obvious in the brief encounters that I personally had with him that he was a good man. I pray for peace and healing of the heart for all of his friends and family. I feel blessed to have been able to know him and feel sorrow at his loss of life. Blessings to his children, fiancé, parents/family.

David, so sorry to hear about Harry’s passing, our thoughts and prayers Are with you and your family.

We were sorry to hear about Glenn. Ken and I both enjoyed playing golf with you at Canadian Lakes. Blessings

Glenn McDoald

I wish to extend my deepest sympathy to Joe's family. I knew and worked with Joe at IBM East Fishkill, NY. He was a neighbor, a good friend and fine man. We had lots of good conversations and fun times. Please accept my condolences.

Dwane and family, We are so saddened to hear of the loss of your wonderful Dad. Please know that all of you are in our prayers and thoughts.

Dwane & Family, So sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers to all the family at this time. Cherish the good memories you shared as a family. Tommy & Sharon King Joe & Marilyn Thompson

Our deepest sympathies are with you during this most tragic time. I worked closely with Ryan in the detention facility as well as on patrol. Ryan always made the long shifts bearable with his impeccable sense of humor. Words cannot describe how deeply saddened we are for your loss. Ryan exemplified a true hero. He will forever be remembered for his sacrifice to our community and what a great friend and coworker he was. We continue to pray for your family that God keeps you close. God speed brother, we've got it from here.

We were so saddened to hear of Ryan's death. It seems like just yesterday that he & Chris were attending Faith Christian. Time flies by. Those FCS "kids" are grown. Ryan accomplished much in a short time. He lived a life of honor, purpose & service. Our prayers are with each of you, now, in your grief. May the Lord lift you up & carry you. May your memories help to sustain you. And Ryan ... may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

The first time Oscar and I met Ron was at a Baha'i School in Cheraw, SC. We had become Baha'is only the month before and before we knew what happened, Ron had seen to it that we were on the planning committee for the Schools. Many memories flood in of the ways Ringleader Ron and we others on the Committee would try to create memorable fun for the children and youth. He loved to organize the games; there was a makeshift Slip and Slide; there was a greased watermelon competition; young and old ate from a very long eaves trough lined with plastic spoons and full of banana splits (we had no thought in those days of virus transmissions!). Even as his health was less robust, Ron always found a way to tell others about Baha'u'llah's message of the way to world peace. We will miss that broad smile and infectious laughter.

Just want say what joy it was getting to now sweet man as Harry was I glad the family let me be part of his last Days.Will never forgot him great Man God.

So sorry for the loss of Harry. We always enjoyed seeing him. His sister Betty was my best friend.

We are thinking about y’all and have been praying for your family. It is so hard to lose the last one. We know all to well. May our sweet Jesus comfort you now

Meeting Ron is like having an instant friend. His love for Bahá'u'lláh was so strong, my condolences to all of his family and friends. I remember his stories of when he was a high school football coach and the love he had for guiding young people. Always humble and kind, I really appreciate having had the joy of knowing him.

My condolences to Mary Ann who has lost a devoted partner and soul mate. I first met Mike in the XD class of 1976 when Mike distinguished himself as a man of integrity and courage. Mike accepted challenging assignment and his leadership enabled the IRS to have a positive presence under his guidance. Thanks Mary Ann for all the time and talent both of you gave to provide the IRS with a great example for all of us.

Our deepest sympathy, may God give you peace of mind through this hard time. We're so sorry for your loss. God Bless you and your family

He was the sweetest most gentle person. He was the most loving human being, he always saw the good. He will be missed so much. Love you Chuckie. RIP our sweet grandson.

Dear Edmonstone family, please accept our heartfelt condolences on the passing of your beloved father. He definitely was a servant of the Baha'i Faith. I met Ron in 1944, 76 years ago. We were Baha'i youth in Miami, Florida. He left Miami at the age of thirteen and moved to North Carolina. We connected again in 2001 when he was living in Asheville. He moved to Hendersonville, close to where Doris and I live. We have been very close friends ever since. We attended Feasts and other Baha'i events together. Posted by Doris and Al Holmes.

My deepest sympathies in the untimely passing of my friend, classmate, fishing friend. I just found very early this morning. From our fishing trips to cherokee(polabago bus), camping at smokemont, helping with the muskie club shows at civic center, having our club picnics at your house on the river and many other times on FB. I'm so sorry for your loss.

TO THE BELOVED FAMILY OF RONALD EDMONSTONE Our deepest condolences and loving sympathy. The PICKENS Family Hermione, Sean, Le'Lani, Austin, Jayla & Darius

Oh!, what a Baha'i, what a Baha'i, what a Baha'i! Ron came into my life in 1964, Oh! what a lovely man he was! He talked with me about marriage and then slipped out the back door, gentle as he was .... Oh! My God! Remember this man!

to our dear servants and descendants of Ron Edmonstone; we had family prayers at the time of Ron's funeral service. He was a truly remarkable man. we never heard him complain, he was always trying to make others happy and had so much love to give. Now he is in the warm embrace of Baha'u'llah who we have heard also loved to laugh and make others happy.

To the Edmonstone Family I express my sincere condolences on the passing of your Father, Grandfather, and Great Grandfather. What a wonderful obituary all of you wrote that captures his adventurous life. I have many fond memories of interacting with Ron in Asheville at the WNC Baha'i Center. I am praying for the progress of his soul and healing for the family.

Dear Edmonstone family, please accept our heartfelt condolences on the passing of your beloved father. As I heard his passing I was reminded of this passage of Shoghi Effendi: “He was surely very sorry to hear of the passing away of your father who was such an old and devoted servant of the Cause. Such persons, at their passing, proceed to the presence of Baha’u’llah and partake of His infinite blessings and divine bounties. They enter into a state which, should we only have the eye to see, we would envy and earnestly desire.” I have fond memories of him. He will be greatly missed. Warmest regards, Behrooz and Sima Sabet

Dear Ron was a true lover of Bah u llah. I met Ron many years ago, while he lived in Charlotte,. We became friends and participated in many Baha'i functions in the Carolina's. Ron Mosseller= Rpn and I made an interesting trio on the Baha'i road. Ron would visit my home and enjoy dishes prepared fro him.May his journey onward be guided by the LOVE of Angels from the realms of JOY for his service and love for humanity.

Dear Mary and Sam, Charles T and I just heard about the loss of your precious son Sam. There are no words to express the sadness we feel for you. Praying the Lord has been a comfort to your hearts during this difficult time and will carry you along each and every day, and that you will live in the peace that only He can supply. Melissa Anne and I spent several days in Lauren Hill last month. I wish I had known and could have paid you a visit. Much love to you. Cheryl Haigh

In May 1970, I had just been a Baha'i one week - was 14. Ron took us Baha'i youth for the day out to a park or camp on Lake Wylie. I went off into the woods with a Baha'i prayer book - had my first powerful experience with the Holy Spirit! Was well confirmed. He once told me I should be a leader, but I was too shy then. I step up more now! He was so dedicated to family, faith, and outdoors! What a wonderful family and influence he made! Love and peace to you all! Thanks, Ron!

Many fond memories of this dear, loving, devoted to the Cause of God, friend, Ron. May his beautiful soul rest peacefully along with his other wonderful souls who served the Faith with him.

My condolences to the family and friends, Mike was truly one of the good guys.

Mike will always be remembered as one of the few good guys. He was a leader who always reflected integrity, intelligence, and concern in everything he did. He also expected the same from the people who worked for him. His Irish charm was also a wonderful gift. I consider Mike a dear friend and mentor. He was simply the best as a leader and a man. Rest in peace, dear Michael.

We will miss you.

Mike, Rest In Peace! I served as Mike’s Assistant Director in Laguna Niguel,where Mike taught me how to be a leader. My wife, Mary and I truly loved Mike as a friend, mentor and outstanding IRS Leader. My wife just spoke recently of the sword fish meal she prepared When we once shared his special swordfish. A wonderful man with a special sense of humor, and his sweet Mary Ann. . Mike, you will be truly missed.

Although I did not know her that many years, I enjoyed getting to know her these last few. She was as sweet as they come, so helpful and thoughtful. Everyone that knew her loved her. She has left a great memory on the earth with so many. I am glad she is no longer suffering and am so very sorry for your loss, Larry.

Mike was a great leader and a better person. He made working for the IRS in Laguna Niguel and Los Angeles very enjoyable. I remember the softball league he organized in Laguna Niguel to build bonds between various IRS organizations, train rides commuting to L.A. and back to San Clemente, dinners with he and Mary Anne in Dana Point, his fiery temper, but most of all his mentoring ( he encouraged me to apply to the executive development program ). He was a great boss a great leader and a better friend. Rest In Peace Mike.

Larry, we are very sorry about the passing of Gail. May God give you peace and comfort during this time. Our prayers are with you and the Family.

Sarita, we are so sorry to hear about your mother. Thinking of you and your family during this difficult time. Dee & Sharon

Mike was a very talented and

A great leader, took on challenging assignments, well respected by peers, employees and the IRS organization. Was so supportive of me as a new executive in the IRS Western Region. A role model for so many.

Gail will be missed by so many friends and family she was like a sister to me. We talked and shared everything she was a very compassionate person always there for me anytime we had lots of fun doing things together and traveling together and working . She wss there to fix whatever I messed up or didn't know what to do very loyal too and confidental she is one of gods angels now I love her so much. My family will miss her so much we all loved her like she was family Bill, Craig, Taylor, Kayla, Jaxon and Bentley. She always looked out for us. She was one of our best employees and is such a huge loss.

Sarita, We send our sincere condolences to you and all of your family at this sad time. Your mother was a beautiful lady and will truly be missed.

The Mighty Quinn of the XD Class of 75-76. One of the true good guys liked and respected by all who had a great IRS career. Part of the Mid-Pines golf group where the stubborn Irishman, sorry that’s redundant kept hitting balls in the water on the par 3 15th until he hit one over what is now known and forever will be known as Quinn’s Quagmire. RIP peace but get strokes from the Angels. Not sure the angel Maryann you left here would give you strikes.

So sorry for your loss. Keeping your family in my prayers.

I met Glenn through Maureen at Hendersonville Presbyterian Church. What a kind, sweet man. His eyes were always smiling!

Mike Quinn was my District Director in Laguna Niguel Ca. He was a fine IRS executive and every employee respected him. We had a fun celebration when he turned 50 because he was the first man in his family to reach that age. Socially, he played softball with our employees and we all enjoyed his colorful golf shorts which we teased him about. Sad to learn of his passing because he was one of the good guys.

So sorry for your loss

So very sorry to hear this. Rest in peace Mike. Sincerest condolences to Maryann as well as family and friends.

I’m so sorry for your loss! Prayers for peace and comfort

I’m so sorry for your loss!

I have known Mike since 1974 when he was a Division Chief at IRS Andover Service Center. Two full-blooded Irishmen hit it off from that first day. After Executive Development we both stayed in close touch along with my Lonnie and his Mary AAnn. Ourspaths crossed in the Midwest, Washington DC, but the real memories were at Wild Dunes, MidPines and Virginia on great golf courses. Many of u gathered at MId Pines NC over a 30 year period for golf and surrounding good times, Back to IRS: Mike was District Directo at Liguna Niquel when the Commissioner and I asked him to take on one of the most challenging of IRS assignments at LA CA. He did an outstanding job. I lost a dear friend. God Bless Mike Quinn. Our deepest condolences to Mary Ann.

Kathy and I lived in neighboring room in the sorority house. She was sweet and genuine and I loved her art. I'm sad to learn of her passing, especially since we have been living near each other and could have reconnected. She was precious..

Very, very sorry for your loss. Herb Young & family

Dear Evelyn, You will be remembered with fondness and respect by the thousands of students who had the privilege of attending your classes. Your colleagues at Valdosta and Gordon State admired and held you in the highest esteem. We all were the better for knowing you; you really made a difference in so many lives including my family. Godspeed my friend.

We too met this beautiful couple in Hawaii. God richly blessed us to know them. Ramona, love and prayers for this great loss. May God comfort you as only He can.

Sarita- I was sorry to hear about your sweet mother passing away. While I never met her, I did enjoy the stories Calvin shared with us and admired her strength and work ethic. What a blessing she has been in your life! I will be lifting you and your family up in prayer. I pray that you are comforted by friends, family and the peace of our LORD.

Aunt Jean was a mentor to me. Growing up in the family business she took me under her wing, taking me on many buyer trips ordering clothing, jewellery, and housewares for the store. She valued my input and showed me the “ropes” on the process involved. I’m so grateful for that opportunity and time with her. Aunt Jean’s built in swimming pool was also a highlight of my youth. In later years I was fortunate to spend a lovely weekend at her home in North Carolina with my cousins. Thank you for those wonderful memories Aunt Jean.

Very, very sorry for your loss! Herb Young & Family

I am so sorry for your loss! My condolences to the entire family.

So many great memories over years of friendship !Breakfasts of Eggs Benedict With Dore’s famous hollandaise sauce ...Weddings ceremonies on the promenade...Gardens of award winning Dahlias!...Living & loving life to the fullest!! Finding comfort knowing she has many loving angels wrapping their arms around her now!

Sarita and Family. I am so sorry to hear of the death of your precious Mom. She was a fighter and devoted to her Family, and beliefs. She will be greatly missed. May she Rest In Peace.

Sarita and Judy, Your mother made such an impression on so many people in her work, her family and her everyday life. I will always remember her smile and greetings and her interest in every thing going on. She has earned her reward in heaven and someday the family will all be able to join her there and celebrate togetherness again. In the meantime, cherish the memories.

Andy is a fun loving grandpa to all of us who went to camp at Pu'ukahea Retreat Center. Thank you for living your life for Jesus.

My thoughts and prayers to the family..

Sarita, Judy and Family,. My heart goes out to each of you in the Homegoing of your precious Mother. We were blessed to have had our Mothers with us for so many years, but we know that they are in Heaven now rejoicing in the presence of the Lord with their perfect and healed bodies and we know we will see them again one day soon never to be separated again. You all are in my heart, my thoughts and my prayers. With my Love and Deepest Sympathy, Alton

Such a fun loving little guy. Keylin really loved having you as a friend. You will be missed buddy!

Austin, we will never see your bright beautiful smile here on earth again. But, we know where you are and Who holds you now in His loving arms, where your smile is shining forevermore. Your time here with your family was short but it was filled with pure love for you. We know you will all be reunited together again one glorious day. Rest in Eternity. Love, Uncle Abe, Aunt Coral and Zach <3

We also met Andy and Ramona in Hawaii and have become good friends over the years. Enjoyed our golfing and his story telling. Will miss you my friend. God bless

I don't remember meeting Papa, he was just always there as a friend of our family growing up. Then, in 1992, I came bounding into the house after a weekend roadtrip and there he was on the couch with my mom as I entered the house. I think he has been part of our lives ever since. He has always made my mom smile and that was the best thing a daughter could ever witness. A year later, on September 4th, we all stood by their sides as they vowed their lives to each other. He has been a fabulous father, a kind husband, and the best grandfather. Papa took my mom on grand adventures, and loved her in a way few will ever experience in their lifetimes. He was a man of God. He loved to smile and lived to laugh. He will always be remembered for his kind heart and his love for all of us. Papa, it is not enough to say we love you, the gift was in being loved by you. May we all share in the Legacy that you have given us so freely.

So sorry for your loss such a kind lady.

Our heart goes out to Ms. Ramona and all the family. We first met Andy and Ramona at Pu'u Kahea Conference Center in Waianae, Hawaii, and immediately fell in love with them. We treasure the memories of our time with them there.

There are no words...we are keeping you all in our thoughts and prayers!

Hi, my big sister, oh the memories, Brother Paul

Larry, very sad about your wife's death.I guess old cancer will get all of us if we live long enough.My Mom and Dad both had it.I will to, if something else don't get me first.

Sweet Gail, I'm thinking of our Family Reunion in October 2019. You and I talked for a little bit. I remember you couldn't take your eyes off of Larry as our conversation focused on him. You talked about the many years that passed before you two got back together. And with a smile on your face you said, "Dreams really do come true". I will always remember that. I love you and will see you soon.

Larry, I am so sorry to hear about Gail. Cherish the memories, she is in a better place. You will meet again. Praying for you and her family.

THE MEMORIES AND LAUGHTER ARE SOMETHING I WILL ALWAYS CHERISH. ON OUR DAY TRIPS WHICH WERE MANY WE SAID 'WE CAN'T BE LOST' AS WE DON'T KNOW WHERE WE ARE GOING.

So sorry for your loss Larry. Prayers for God to give you peace and comfort in this difficult time. Love and prayers Donna Smith

Oh my sweet friend Gail I can only imagine what you are seeing and what you are doing. I can just imagine when you you left you looked up and saw Jesus and you went running to Him! Wow just Wow. Loved you then love you now and miss you. See you later.

Cousin Larry, Jill and I are sad to hear about Ms Gail. We only saw her a few times but could tell quickly you guys loved each other. Our plans in life don't always go as we would draw them but remember Psalm 18:30 "As for God his way is perfect"... The Lord didn't make a mistake. His perfect plan for her life played out just like He ordered. His name will be glorified through this some how. I'm sure the choir is sounding a bit sweeter with the addition of your angel. We will see her soon. I'm here for you my brother. Wayne and Jill

So sorry for your loss. My love and prayers to you all.

We are so sorry for your loss. We have such good memories of our times together. Please take care and know that you all are in our thoughts.

Linda was a high school classmate. She was a very sweet person and always had a smile. My deepest sympathy for your loss.

John I'm sorry to hear about Jane. She was a sweet soul. Thoughts and prayers go out to you today.

I am so sorry to hear about Linda's passing. She was a very sweet caring person and I'm sorry we didn't keep in touch more. My thoughts and prayers are with y'all.

Pam and Sherry,our thoughts and prayers are with you and all the family! I know it makes it easier to know he is with our Lord!

I remember meeting Joey for the first time on the Sierra Nevada job site. At the time, he was working for Wayne Brothers as part of their concrete crew, which was tough work. He approached me and asked, "So, what's it like working for these guys?" I told him it was a great company to work for, they seemed to really care about their employees and that he should keep his out for open positions. He said, "That's sounds good. I'd like to work for a company like that, ya know? Do you guys get free beer?!" I told him about the benefits and he got a big grin on his face. I remember thinking Joey would be a good asset to the team. Some time had passed and Joey approached me again to ask for advice about interviewing for a job opening. After some Joey banter, which was always lighthearted and fun, I gave him some solid advice. He ended up getting the job and was so thankful for my advice. He said, "Now I can go get some new work boots!" I really enjoyed working with and getting to know Joey through the years. He was a good dude and will be missed. Rest in peace friend.

I was so sad to hear the news of Linda. She and I worked together for many years and I was so fond of her. She was a very special person and she will be missed. My condolences to her husband and family.

I met Doris in 2018 when I was working as a server at Garlik Vegan in Horse Shoe. She was full of love and light; beautiful spirit. Doris always made my day when she came in to eat lunch at the restaurant. I remember telling her about my struggle to find a church in the Hendersonville area. And she had told me about Upward Christian Fellowship. I went about a month after she had told me and knew it was the right church for me. If it wasn't for Doris, I would have never went to UCF. I am deeply saddened about the passing of Doris, but I know she is in heaven with the Lord. Doris made a difference in my life, and I will forever be grateful. I send my condolences and sympathy to Doris' family and loved ones.

Fay sorry for your loss. John was a nice person.

Sitting on the porch, watching the birds, swapping stories, and sharing laughter became a much anticipated annual event at Linda and JZ’s beautiful Maxwell family farm. So many memories have been made over the years as Linda loved and encouraged the gatherings of extended family and friends. From fish fries to hot dog roasts, we’ve enjoyed it all! I see Linda casting a line into the pond, hoping to catch that big one, and wheeling around the farm with Wyatt as her navigator! Linda’s love of her husband, J, and their son, Ryan, became even more complete as Ryan married Adrienne and brought a much anticipated, precious grandson, Conrad into their lives. Linda faced her illness with dignity and grace, never losing her sense of humor or positive spirit. Her faith in God sustained her and that faith will lead her home. Cherishing the memories, with love always, Kimon

Faye so sorry for your loss. I know John will be truly missed. Sending Prayers for you and your family.

You were a very sweet & kind man.

So loving and kind great Preacher of the Truth we are so so sorry for your loss this we know he is now in the site of our Loving Father we will all be called up very soon

Dear Evelyn, Your friendship was such a wonderful surprise. It is difficult to connect to someone so completely as we reach a certain age. I'll cherish the memory when you and your amazing husband, Tom, shared a St. Patty's Day lunch and listened to those bagpipes. I will miss our chats and your fabulous laugh. Until we meet again, safe journey, my sweet friend. Love Always, Pam

My Daddy attended his church and his name was KW Wright. I have always adored him and he always made me feel loved and welcomed. God Bless you all!

Pastor Paul was always filled with the spirit of God.He loved standing in the pulpit and preaching the word which he knew well. When I was in town from the Navy I would attend church and he would call me up so we could sing At Calvary. My Paul rest in Gods peace.Amen

Pam and family - my thoughts are with you and I know that you have special memories of happy times - I hope they comfort you always. Love and Friendship Wanda Caldwell

What a wonderful man of God! Maisie and I have such fond memories of the times we talked with him after church services.

Alvin was an amazing person and has a wonderful family who will continue on and follow in his footsteps. Thoughts and prayers are with Betty, Rob, Stewart, Tucker and all of the family. ❤️

I will miss you and our talks. I knew I could tell you anything. You are very dear to me. Love you, Evelyn.

Stewart & Robert, you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

I never met him but always prayed for him with his daughter so sorry for the loss God bless you all

Although I've never met Pastor Paul, I feel as if I know both daughters, Pam and Janice who are the Best! If this is indicative of his ability as a Father, it speaks highly of him. May he rest in peace.

Our condolences to all the family. I still remember Annie Sue in French's which was next door to Downing Street. A great lady.

Dad and Mike, My sincere condolences at this time. Loosing a loved one yields all of the worlds pain. Linda was a kind hearted, fun loving lady and I will cherish the memories I have. May you all find peace during this time and know I am here if needed. Rest In Peace mom

Dad and Mike, My deepest condolences during this time. Linda was an very sweet and loving lady to which I have many fond memories of her and that smile. May you all find comfort in knowing so many people were touched by Linda and her loving demeanor. Rest is peace mom

I will always remember Jim both for his thoroughness and accuracy when he served as the treasurer on the board of the Friends of Carl Sandburg. I also appreciated his sense of humor, especially when I asked questions. He always answered politely with a smile on his face that made me glad that I had him to ask.

So sorry for your loss Larry

So sorry for your loss Larry.

Stewart & Robert sending prayers & hugs. So sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. Many memories to cherish.

I grew up with Dave in Grand Haven and attended the Christian School and graduated 9th grade together. My condolences to his family.

So sorry for you loss

Larry, Michael & Family, words cannot express how sad we were to hear of Linda's passing. Our deepest condolences to all of you. You are in our thoughts & prayers. RIP Linda.

I am glad to have known Marnie. I ran the Snack Bar at Carolina Village for several years and Marnie visited almost everyday. She became one of my favorites. When she turned 100, I told her she was my "oldest friend"! After I retired, we exchanged Christmas Cards and Birthday Cards each year. My sincere condolences go out to the family. May God bless you all. Thank you for sharing Marnie,and all the memories I have of my friend.

I was blessed to have Annie Sue as my second mother...SO many memories...beginning with hanging out at the jewelry store after school with Marjie when we were in elementary school... so MANY sleepovers...the dang poodles...the pool days...the love she gave me as if I were one of her own. She was a great lady and will be missed. RIP Annie Sue♥️

Worked with Alvin and considered him to be a great and understanding person that I could have ever met, will miss him in my thoughts. God bless

What a great lady and what great times we had at the pool. You were a treasure. My condolences to all the family

I only knew Glory at the bridge table. Always a warm smile and kind word. A quiet, studious competence. Now, realizing her background from reading about her, I appreciate why she always took time to review her performances with partner Fiona. Always learning. A mistake happened once and was never repeated. Glory was a gift to our Tryon bridge club. She will be missed. Our thoughts rest with her family and friends. Life deals cruel blows to the innocent. Rest well dearest Glory and save a warm seat for your many bridge friends.

I will always remember our fun days, sitting at the Hendersonville Country Club pool; such a sweet person. Condolences to the family.

I have alot of memories of my great aunt , Emma growing up.she babysat me after school for a long time. Dalton's never really die .

Annie Sue, You were so special and a beautiful lady. You were a special friend to many but especially to my Mom, Joanna Pack. I know you two are together again with all the love ones. I will always remember going to French’s and buying jewelry and how you made us feel special. You will be missed but we all have wonderful memories of you and your family.

French, Marjie and Family, My thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathy to each of you in the passing of your Mother. I am so sorry for your loss. Alton

We’ll remember that beautiful laugh and smile. Thoughts and prayers for all of you.

Oh Annie Sue! You sweet, funny, lovely lady! You were an icon in Hendersonville.

Loved this special lady for years. Many lunches with her and John when Marjie and I would hurry to their house when we worked together in the Dental Field . Those times spent with their family was very special. You will all be in our prayers and I love you girls.

Praying for you, Janice and family, during this difficult time.

The Light of Love will guide you home...

I just learned of Doc Betty's passing and feel that an Angel has gone home. I didn't have a chance to say Thank you for all of the work and love given by her to my son and through his growth as a person, our family. None of us would be who we are today without Doc Betty's help, wisdom and guidance. There just isn't enough words or emotions to express our gratitude to this remarkable woman. Wherever she is now I know there is someone else benefiting from knowing her.

So sorry to hear of Greg's passing.He & his wife Joan were our friends for 60yrs. He was a good & kind man & very special to all. God Bless Him & always remembered.

Such an interesting guy, we've only known Jim through Appalachian Minis Club for a short time, but knew immediately that Jim was someone that you could count on. He will be missed, and I wish we had been able to do more with him and his lovely wife Dianne. We were just getting to know them when this awful thing happened. Jim readily volunteered to help wherever he could. We will miss him, and wish Dianne all the best as she moves back to family in Florida. Take care, Dianne.

LARRY AND FAMILY, I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR OF LINDA'S PASSING! SHE WAS A KIND AND CARING PERSON, AND I'M SURE YOU AND THE FAMILY WILL SURELY MISS HER. ANYTHING WE CAN DO TO HELP, PLEASE LET US KNOW!! LOVE AND PRAYERS FOR PEACE AND COMFORT THROUGH THESE NEXT FEW DAYS AND MONTHS TO COME. 828-685-0044 LOVE YOU ALL!!

I met Judy at church about 35 years ago and we became great friends Her House was on my way home from work and I stopped several times a week to visit. Eddie and James were buddies and both kept us entertained. Didn’t see her much after she move away but we could always pick up where we left off. I will miss her — always knew I had a friend to talk to. Mary - Tripp- Eddy. — she always caught me up with what was going on in your lives and bragged on all of you. You and your kids were a great joy to her. I know it is very painful to lose her. I am shocked. Love you.

Aunt Judy and Mama used to have the best time together, every time I came home, I would always go see Aunt Judy. I'm so sorry for your lost Mary, Tripp, and Eddie. She was one fantastic lady and will be sorely missed.

You have been gone for nearly three years, times filled with tears, yet your light shines bright, turning my thoughts to peace and love from early morning to night’s last light. I love you ❤️

I have so many happy memories of coming to visit my grandparents, Tom and Mabel France, and getting to see Wayne and Doris! They were always so kind to me and I often tell my daughter of the memories I have of them. I'm so sorry for your loss but I know Doris is rejoicing with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Blessings to the family.

I met Glory on our trip to Japan just three years ago and then we travelled again to Croatia last year. We bonded and felt we had known each other forever. She was warm, smart and funny. Loved her community, and her Friends, adored her dog and her beloved husband. We shared so many laughs on our trip and were planning our next one. She was an amazing person and I feel lucky to have known her. I miss her but Will cherish the memories. Our deepest condolences to you Fred. It is hard to lose a partner but think of all the joyful and special moments you shared with Glory. She will watch over you from heaven.

What a wonderful fellow. Bil retired from banking in Florida and started a business in Greenville SC that produced printed apparel and promotional material. He loved the little airport in Hendersonville where he was building his own airplane and the Western North Carolina Air Museum. We flew together in 2009 during the annual Air Fair. He was a delight to be around, a real enthusiast for everything he did, and filled a merry seat at our Saturday morning breakfast table at the Mustang Cafe. We all miss him.

Dearest Glory - Thank you for all the wonderful times together. When we saw the Milwaukee Arboretum, eagles along the Mississippi, or camping in West Virginia. You were always good company. We enjoyed your sense of humor and enthusiasm. Thank you for helping my mom and dad move to California. Peace be with you.

We will miss Uncle Jim so much! He and my Aunt Dianne were so happy together! So fun, active and both loving life to the fullest. He was always kind and easy going. One of my happiest days was when Aunt Dianne told me she was getting married! We will miss him and send all our love to Aunt Dianne and all the family. We love you!

Hello friends, I am so happy you could come today in honor of Glory. I want to leave you with some thoughts to help you remember who Glory was. Her personality. Her love of life. Her strong commitment to everything she did. Her obituary does a nice job of describing some of her life experiences. Things that helped define her. There are a few things I left out. Glory had a beautiful singing voice. She was too modest to share it much in public, but if you got to hear it it was amazing. I also failed to mention her laugh. It was infectious. It was real and from her soul. It made you laugh with her even if you did not know why she was laughing. I wish I had a recording of these things to share with you. It would make you so happy. The obituary also does not do justice in helping you understand the importance she put on three things — Family, Friends and Faith. Family was always first. Nothing was more important. From her dedication to her dad to her desire to support nieces and nephews. If you go to her obituary on shulerfuneralhome.com , you will see several condolences posted by family members. You will see in their comments, her commitment to family. Glory was my best friend for over 42 years. We did everything together. But she was also a great friend to so many others. She wanted every friend to be a friend for life. I can’t tell you the number of people we met on our world travels with whom Glory still communicated. Not just other passengers on the trips, but staff as well. Casino card player, singer, even a room steward. She loved to share experiences and live through theirs as well. She touched so many people. Many of you here today showed your return affection for Glory when over 80 of you lined the street and cheered for her when she returned home this past April. Thank-you. Glory had a strong faith, but her only concern in life was how people seem to be loosing the understanding of the importance of God in their lives. The importance of prayer and the experience of how prayer can uplift you. She would challenge all you grand parents out there to encourage your kids and grand kids to maintain their connection to God. Don’t lose it in this secular world that seems to ridicule or mock anything religious. Return to making their religion a core pillar of their lives. A friend sent me this message this morning. “When you speak of her, speak not with tears, for thoughts of her should not be sad. Let memories of the times you shared give you comfort, for her life was rich because of all of you.”   

The world lost a good soul and a kind man. You will be missed. A former neighbor, Eileen Whelehan

Bil's presence at our airport gatherings always brightened the day and lifted our mood. Our group trips to the annual Sun-n-Fun meet always included Bil's required stops at Dairy Queen . Each day he would stay for the airshow until the last airplane had landed .

The first words that come to mind when thinking of Aunt Glory are joyful, compassionate, and kind hearted. I can’t remember a time when I was around my Aunt where she did not brighten up a room with either her laugh or stories of her adventures. I admired her compassion for traveling and thirst for knowledge. I will always cherish the memories with her.

We have known Jim since their wedding in 2005. He made my sister Dianne so happy A wonderful man and a beautiful family. Rob and I enjoyed the many fun times with Dianne and Jim and the many memorable trips in Florida, California, North Carolina, and even a cruise. We will truly miss him.

I always loved being around Glory. She was always so cheerful and easy to talk to. We had many long conversations. Like others have mentioned her laugh was contagious and she had a beautiful singing voice. I imagine right now she is in Heaven dancing and singing with her loved ones there. She will always have a place in my heart and I will never forget her. I am so grateful to have known her. Rest In Peace Glory, you have earned it.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss Eddie. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. If you need anything or want to talk I am right across the hallway!!! :)

My Aunt Glory, my God mother, and also the aunt with the same birthday as mine. Nothing could describe her better than that she was the life of the party. She had a beautiful distinct laugh that you could find through a crowd and that I will never forget. I remember spends many holidays at her house and Glory staying up late reading in her den. Every time we came to visit she always had new animals for us to view. I remember she loved nature and she would show passion for all of God’s creatures. I will never forget that in the middle of the night she woke us during a visit to show us raccoons she had been feeding dog food. I always knew she had an amazing heart but you could definitely see it by the way she treated every like equals. God just got another angel. I love you Aunt Glory and may you Rest In Peace. P.s. have some wine ready for me when we meet again.

I can remember Fred bringing Glory to Houston,Texas after he left to begin his career with GE back east. Which of course is where he and Glory met, in Schenectagrad as she had named it. I think we hit it off pretty well! Her personality would light up the room, so I can see what Fred saw in her! One thing that always makes me chuckle occurred at this time! We had Amy by then so trips were fun! I remember one hot Texas afternoon, Glory asked me the following: Keith, would you like a soder? I said a soder? She said yeah a sober! Oh! a soder! By this time my Texas twang and her East coast accent met and we would chuckle about that soder for most of the next 40 years! We call soda by label in Texas! Dr.Pepper or Coke or Pepsi! We became good friends from that moment on. I always snicker when I hear that! She was a sweetie and I miss her alot! Classy all the way!

These are my fond memories of a dear friend and next-door neighbor, Glory. Glory was the “Pearl Mesta” of our neighborhood, hosting many get-togethers, from dinners, cook-outs, cocktail parties, dog birthdays, or just hang-outs in the driveway. Her “Gloriful” decorating enlivened the street, whether a swath of yellow daisies in the summer or the blaze of seasonal lights during the Christmas season. On our dog walks, Glory shared her beliefs and adventures, telling me about her vacationing experiences, making them come alive with detail and expression. With her words, I took a world tour; I felt like I was “there.” Glory helped me plan the food for a very successful “Chicken Roast,” even picking up the food and managing the dessert menu, down to the exact size of the tidbits. (It must have been the engineer in her.) We even shared a favorite color—purple. On one of her trips abroad, she remembered and gifted me with wind chimes—purple, of course. I hung them on my ceiling fan. When it whirls, I hear the faint “ding, ding.” It’s Glory; she got her wings. I’m not the only one next door who longs for her voice. My dog, Tasha, misses her mightily. Every time he goes for a walk, Tash strains at the leash, searching hopefully for her. He expects his best friend to call out the familiar, “Hey, Tashie, want a cookie? Wait, I’ll get you a cookie.” Glory also taught me an important lesson. Before this last New Year’s Eve party, when we walked Challis and Tash, we discussed what we would wear for a 1920’s speakeasy theme—elegant or flapper? She told me that she had gone to Jo-Ann Fabric to find fringe for a short skirt, but decided against it as it was so expensive—and really, just for one night. No. Instead she would wear a lovely blue cocktail dress and looked beautiful—the last time I saw her as her healthy self. But no fringe. The lesson? If, in the future, I see something that makes brings me joy, damn the price, I’ll buy it. Her advice to her brother was to “live life.” All of her years, she did so-- and I will too. We all deserve to metaphorically “wear fringe on our dress.” I will think of her every day. May Fred and her family know what a powerful influence she had on those she touched. Love is stronger than death. Even though our love couldn’t stop it from happening, it can’t separate us from the memories we embrace. Lovingly and gratefully, Elaine Royer

My Aunt Glory was an adventurer. Every family meeting and holiday celebration was an opportunity to hear about the latest exploration of country, food, and culture. With a mind and personality to match the beauty she found on her travels, Glory was a role model every day of my life. In pictures we cherish, the memories we share, and the love we feel - you are remembered.

One of my favorite memories with Glory was in the spring of 2015. I was on my spring break visiting NC for the week. Her and Fred took me on an incredible hike through the mountainous woods nearby their house. I remember thinking how cool it was that my aunt Glory was so eager and capable of enjoying nature’s beauty on a day to day basis. Later that same night we had watched the movie “wild” further exemplifying her appreciation for this earth and interest in adventure. That made a lasting impression on me. It gives me comfort knowing that she is able to appreciate all of Earths beauty from above. You will be missed greatly, Aunt Glory.

John, sorry for your loss. I know the feeling.

My deepest condolences, Fred. Working with Glory at GE Houston in the early '80's when she was their first female turbine specialist was special. She didn't care what the "good old boy" customers thought of her, and never took no for an answer. She just kept coming at them again and again. Her hundreds of millions in orders demonstrated that her remarkable intelligence, persistence, and sense of humor could win over even the most die-hard sexists. The business world was a tough place for women in 1980 (especially in Houston), and her efforts helped pave the way for other women to win respect as well. She was a true trailblazer and should be remembered as such. My heart is heavy tonight.

I had the honor to get to know both Jim and Diane through our MINI Cooper community. Jim was a great addition to our local club. He was always quick to volunteer his time, whether it was leading a drive at MOTD or helping us get club magnets. His smiling face and enthusiasm will be missed at our local meets and at the Dragon

Jim was an extra special man with an upbeat nature but first and foremost was the “ultimate giver” to others. He would find a need and fix it. I was fortunate to gain his friendship through his marriage to my good friend Dianne. It was a lucky day for all who knew them. Through the years I became recipient of his kindness and thoughtfulness through his and Dianne’s many visits. Jim possessed many talents that he freely gave without thinking. He was more than a friend. He was like a brother. He loved life and grabbed as much as it offered with Dianne. His loss has left a void with me but I can take solace knowing we will all celebrate again. Thank you Jim!

Rest In Peace Greg.❤️.

When I returned from Europe back in 1984 after a trip abroad, Glory and Fred picked me up and I stayed with them for a few days. The first morning I was with them I woke up to the most beautiful angelic voice. I couldn’t figure out where it was coming from. I started searching rooms and got closer to the voice. It was Glory. She immediately stopped and I said NO KEEP GOING! She didn’t But I’ll never forget it. Glory lit up a room and she always made you feel welcome and special. I will miss her dearly. I believe a life Is a continuous thread. It weaves itself through love and memory and remains a part of everyone it has touched. Glory touched my life and I will never forget her.

Loved your sweet Mama and have such fond memories of her at basketball games! Praying for you all at this difficult time.- Linda Hill Glasgow Charleston, SC

I remember visiting Aunt Glory and uncle Fred in their Dublin house. Aunt Glory would always take Sam and I to go feed the ducks and catfish in the pond by their house. She would let us feed them a whole bag of bread and then after we got to go explore the little island in the middle of the pond together. It’s a simple memory, but a meaningful one. I will miss her greatly. -Kelli

We are so sorry for your loss.Your mama was a wonderful lady. Beth and Jerry

One of my fondness memories of Glory was during the Easter holiday or for that matter any holiday is when Glory would just start singing. Now this usually meant dinner was over and the festivities have officially began. Somehow Kelli would win the Easter egg decorating contest again. Rest in eternal peace and may God continue to watch over our family.

Aunt Glory was a very special person. Every time time we would meet whether it was a family get together, visiting, thanksgiving or Christmas we would always talk about sports and places we’ve been to. I will miss our discussions about March madness and the Green Bay Packers and traveling. Glory was was very insightful about sports. My favorite story she would tell me was when I was little I had a terrible speech impediment where I would pronounce my “R’s” as “W’s” and reminded her of a New Jersey accent, which she thought was hilarious. I will very much miss my Aunt Glory, and I am happy that she has found peace with God and heaven.

Aunt Glory was one of the kindest people I knew. When thinking back to my memories with her I always remember her playing games with us at Christmas or Thanksgiving, and she was quick to burst into song when one of us would play the piano. One of my younger memories with her was when my family visited them in Ohio. She brought me to their neighborhood pond, and we would feed the catfish for hours together. She made the little things feel big. This goodbye came too soon, but know that you will be missed terribly, and loved always. I love you Aunt Glory, rest peacefully.

My mother has lost one of her great rivals. The ladies are legendary in Edneyville- Polk Central competitions

There was never anyone more cheery in the room than Aunt Glory. Every shared moment was filled with laughs and smiles and lucky for me, most of my holiday memories involved Aunt Glory and Uncle Fred. From late Christmas Eve's playing Uno in Columbus to extended Thanksgiving weekends in NJ. To this day I think the vacations I remember the most were the ones spent out in Columbus - walking the dogs in the snow, playing games in the basement, and speaking to penguins at the zoo. I will forever regret not spending more time with you but will cherish each and every moment we shared and promise to never let your spirit fade. And as if your personality wasn't enough, you brought Uncle Fred into our lives. I am so fortunate to have you as an Uncle and aspire to be the husband you were for Aunt Glory. You are forever family. Aunt Glory, you will be forever loved and missed. You were an inspiration, a role model, and above all, family. I love you Aunt Glory. May you rest in eternal peace.

When I was at school in Pittsburgh, Aunt Glory and Uncle Fred were living in Dublin, OH and were kind to invite me to join them for Thanksgiving since I was unable to go to Texas. They drove all the way to and from Pittsburgh to get me. We had a wonderful time, even visiting their favorite Mexican restaurant for margaritas! Both Aunt Glory and Uncle Fred were so kind and welcoming, making sure to include my Thanksgiving favorites like stuffing, and Glory teaching me about Yankee dumplings! I have fond memories of growing up and spending Thanksgiving holidays with Glory and Fred in St. Louis hosting the entire family. I distinctly remember her laugh ringing through the house. I also loved having heartfelt talks were Aunt Glory. You always knew that she was listening to every word whenever you were in deep conversation. She was never one to hold back in any discussion, but she especially loved talking politics and history! As these were often my favorite subjects, I was more than excited to sit down and have friendly debates, so long as we didn't take it personally! I am so heartbroken that we've had to say goodbye to Aunt Glory so soon, and so suddenly. She was a bright light and a warm presence with the biggest smile you could imagine. She loved all those fluffy dogs, but she loved Fred more than anything on Earth. I'm so grateful I was lucky enough to be in her family, and I will miss her so very much.

She was the sweetest so glad got to know her and more about our family I miss her already she truly was a blessing

I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR OF GREG.'S PASSING. HE WAS A WONDERFUL BROTHER-IN-LAW AND WILL BE MISSED.

GREGORY SAVOLD

I am so sorry for your loss! It's never easy to say goodbye! She lived a long life and was so proud of her kids. Cherish her memory

Janice, Joe and Frank, I loved this lady and her yell at the ball games was a highlight. She was a bright spot on this earth. She and Mama are laughing it up now. My prayers are with all of you!

My best friend, my hero, my dad I'll miss every day !

Dearest Glory, daughter-in-law! How I will miss the joy, humor, zest for knowledge and loyalty you showered us with. Happy memories sustain us and your bright smile lingers. Rest well, dear one, in the arms of Jesus and Blessed Mother. Until we meet again

EMMA WAS A SWEET AND KIND FRIEND AND FAMILY TO US!! SHE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED BY ALL HER KNEW HER!! SHE IS IN HEAVEN WITH ALL THE OTHERS GONE BEFORE HER. SHE IS HAVING A WONDERFUL HOMECOMING!! LOVE TO ALL THE FAMILY!

I am so very sorry to learn of Greg's passing. Greg started volunteering at The Free Clinics over 15 years ago, giving us more than 1,200 hours of service in that span. He volunteered in different areas around the clinics, for a long time as a patient eligibility screener, and in more recent years (when I knew him), coordinated teams of volunteers from Immaculate Conception to come assist us with large mailings. He was almost always the first to arrive and the last to leave, and wanted to help as much as he could. You only had to spend a few minutes with Greg to know he was a man of incredible faith and devotion, who freely gave of himself to serve his community through his church and other organizations. I will miss him very much.

Glory was a special lady to all of us. She was the perfect hostess and she and Fred made each of us so welcome in their home. She was an incredible cook, but she always welcomed help in the kitchen. She made mealtime preparations a fun, funtime for all. One of my favorite memories was a trip we made to St. Loius, Missouri for Thanksgiving. Fred and Glory had all 23 members of the family at their home--beds and people everywhere! We cooked and ate, played games, made crafts, sang songs, and went on walks. It was a glorious time that was repeated. Everybody loved playing games with Glory. She was very competitive so were all challenged to do our best! She loved us and we loved her. I will miss her smile her laughter, her sweet notes throughout the year, her infectious laughter, and her beautiful singing voice. I was blessed to know her and have her a part of our family.

I had the pleasure to meet Jim And Dianne when our daughter married his son, Paul. I knew right away that he was a great man. And the more I was around both Jim and Dianne I knew they were some of the good ones. He was a gentle man with impeccable morals and wisdom and loved his family deeply. He was a great father-in-law to Heather and she loved him so much and so did my grandson, Hunter. Paul reminds me so much of Jim in many ways. You left good footprints for him to follow. The world sure could use more great men like him about now. Thank you Jim for being such a good role model for your sons and grandchildren.

Aunt Glory. Every time I saw her, her confidence, her smile, her laughter, and her love always filled the room. It was always contagious. Our trip to Missouri, my most recent memory of her, sticks out for a couple reasons. One, it ended up being the last time I got to see her, talk with her, laugh with her, and experience the last hugs I would ever get from her. And two, we all had such a blast that whole time we were there. I still think about that trip. Everything was gorgeous... Well, ok, maybe not the condition of the house, or the creepy caretakers, or those huge, filthy, tick-ridden dogs, or the dead goat, but the kayaking, hot tub and swimming pool were good and the land was beautiful! Hahaha! I think everything was pretty wonderful about that trip. I hope she knew that I loved her very much. I'm grateful for every moment I was able to spend with Glory.

Aunt Glory lit up a room every time she walked in. She had an infectious smile one that will be remembered always. I loved how she would just be in the moment and share with you what was going on. She had a special love for all. I have so many wonderful memories of her but the one that stands out to me the most was when I was 8 1/2 months pregnant with Aiden (her oldest grand nephew). She came to Texas to stay with me while Soor-el was finishing up grad school out of town. It was the best time with her. We cooked together, went on walks and just had a wonderful time chatting about life. I was truly grateful that she could be there with me. Truly special! She was a beautiful lady and one that I was happy to call my aunt. I will miss her more than words can say. She truly made the world a better place. Now heaven has gained an angel that will watch over us always. In love you dearly Aunt Glory!

Aunt Glory was the best! She always made us laugh. We remember the fun time we had in Missouri on the farm. She took us down to then lake and watched us fish and swim. We also loved playing games with her especially Mexican Train! She gave the best hugs! We will miss her so much but know that she is always watching over us just like our guardian angel. We love you Aunt Glory!

Marnie was a very special person, especially loved by neighbors on the hall where she lived. Funny jokes were read by her from her iPad bringing always needed laughter among us. We send our sincerest condolences and sympathies to her family and friends.

Oh Nancy how I miss you

Jim has been a dear friend since the 1990’s when we met him at Saint John’s Episcopal Church in Jacksonville Florida. There are so many wonderful times and experiences we shared with Jim, and we thought we had more to come. He was a great man and a dear friend and will be sorely missed the rest of our lives. We send our love to his loving wife Dianne and pray that we can be of help to her in someway. Rest in peace, dear Jim.

Dearest Judy, So sorry to learn of the passing of your dad. He was quiet a character, reminiscing and telling stories of the things he and Bert (my husband) use to do while going to school at Mills River. My thoughts and prayers are with your entire family.

Glory...Your name says it all, Magnificence, Great Beauty, Distinction, Honor, Quality and the Manifestations of God's Strength and Presence in and through Life. You will remain in my Heart Forever. What a truly Great and Amazing Sister...I was So Fortunate. Although You have left us, especially your True Soulmate, Fred, you are Home again and with Dad. You both shared an exclusive bond and I always enjoyed viewing your interactions together. Hopefully one day I will join You. Until such time, I will remember your voice, especially when singing. I always listened carefully to your thoughts. Thank you for your kindness and compassion...just being You! I will also miss the L-G with all of your messages. Enjoy your journey Glory. I Love You!

Jennifer was a beautiful person inside and out, and I'm honored to have called her my friend. We met through hydrocephalus support groups on Facebook, and cheered each other on through college courses. She was an encourager to her hydrocephalus family, and helped to spread awareness however possible. We never met in person, but always planned to... she was a kindred spirit, and I'm so heartbroken she's gone. My love goes out to her family.

Jessica was always a joy to be around! She will be missed and we are lifting the family up in prayer.

Chris was much more than a brother in law, he was more like a flesh and blood brother to me. We shared so many interests and I looked forward to every chance I had to have a conversation with him. I cried when I heard he had passed. He was way too young, but apparently God needed him for a project in heaven.

I remember the first time we met Lil Sam. You had just recently moved here. A Laurel Park worker was digging for a broken pipe under our mail-box. Sam was just a little guy who wanted to play in the dirt. How time goes so quickly. We have watched him grow into a handsome young man. The sadness is beyond expression. Our family is praying for you.

So sad to hear this. Sam was such a sweet boy when he was at HES. You and your family are in my continued prayers.

Our hearts go out to you all during this difficult time. The loss of Charlie is felt by many. His warm personality and many contributions to our community will be remembered by all that knew him.

We found a friend in Charlie the day our family walked into that gas station...as new residents to Livingston Farms it was such a comfort having such a welcome place for us to share a laugh and gossip. My daughter recently told Charlie and me that that GMC he drove stood for “good morning Charlie”. We sure will miss telling him good morning. Thank you for sharing him with the rest of us. You’re in our prayers. And Charlie.... we will see you in the morning

Charlie was a wonderful man. Will miss our visits at the store. Praying for all.

We were privileged to have Charlie and Shelia Messer as neighbors. Charlie had a great love for Hoopers Creek community and it’s people. Charlie’s on the Creek serves the community not only as a convenience store but also for the center of community news. Charlie enjoyed telling customers about his family and as any loving grandparent does proudly told about his grandchildren’s accomplishments. As a County Commissioner Charlie had a genuine love for Henderson County and its citizens and proudly served as a County Commissioner for 20 years. Charlie advocated for Henderson County employees in various issues and wanted to make sure all of them had equal opportunities and rights. God chose to take Charlie from us at an early age but we will see him again someday in Heaven. To Shelia, Shalon and Shawna and your families, may you find comfort in God’s peace and grace during this time of sorrow and grief. Thinking of you and praying.

Sheila and family, So sorry for your great loss. We will be praying for the comfort and peace of God to envelop your family through the coming months. Blessings.

I will always remember Charlie as one who cared passionately for our community and was willing to be a friend to anyone. There was never a time when I needed his counsel when he was unavailable. He will definitely be missed and leaves a hole in our community.

I will always remember Charlie as someone who cared passionately for our community and in particular those who needed a friend.There was never a time when I needed his counsel and he was unavailable.

Our family was richly blessed by having Charlie as a member for 46 years. He loved my sister and his family well. He served our community well. He served our Lord well. Now, Charlie, it is time to rest and be rewarded. I love you, Sheila, the girls, the grands, and T & Mark. ❤️
