We are so sorry to hear about Phillip's passing.
Aunt Sonya, David and Jill, I am so sorry to lose Uncle Phillip. And I am so sorry I cannot be there. Haley has to be at Pardee Hospital on Monday for some tests. I would love to come tomorrow, but I am afraid to have her in a crowd. Please know I am sending you all love and prayers. I will miss Uncle Phillips kind and gentle ways. He was so much like Papaw Jones.
Sorry for your loss
Dear Sonya & Family, I am so sorry for your loss, I would be there but I don't have anyone to watch Jeff since Tom passed away. May God bless you and your family and cling to the memories. Love, Norma
Very sad to hear about David’s passing. In my eyes he was always the boss at Spartan and a great friend. Prayers for prayers and peace in this time of sorrow. Steve, former spartan driver
