Cheyanne, my deepest condolences to you and your entire family. You have shared many wonderful things about your papaw and the bond you have with him. The relationships grandparents have with their grandchildren are a blessing from God and I am so happy you have those memories to carry with you. I pray your family will find comfort in knowing he has been reunited with your grandmother and most importantly he has seen the face of God.
Jesus Blessings!

Sorry to hear about a long time pal leaving us. Some of the stories I could tell growing up with Gary. Playing ball, camping and just being boys in Limestone. Great times and memories. He would drive by the hardware and grin real big and give me a wave in the Summers truck. Gary will be missed by all who knew him. May God bless the whole family during this time and always, Wassan and Vickie Broyles and family.
I remember Gary coaching my baseball team at Limestone many years ago. Those were some good times. My condolences to the Jennings family during this difficult time.

Misty you know your mom and are together again maybe you can let that ease a little of the pain you are going through. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Gary was a wonderful, kind man and will be missed
