I just wanted to tell everyone that my grandfather was the only man that always made me feel safe. He always taught me to always do the christian thing, and forgive all the people that have wronged you because in heaven there ae wonderful things awaiting us. The man I knew you were, there is no doubt your home. I miss you papaw, but you needed to be out of pain, and with Jesus. Now that you at peace, I can tell you this, I will never forget you, and I will always know how lucky I was to be you granddaughter, and to be raised by you, and mamaw. You are with the father now, with mamaw, and I can even imagine you smiling down on us, and being proud of your three granddaughters. I love and miss you papaw, see you again one day.
Love always,
Chasity

Your father was an outstanding man of the community. We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Mom was gone out of town and did not return until 09-04-06 afternoon. She has tried to call, but does not know if she has the correct phone numbers. If you can, she requests that you call her at home 304-855-8637. This has sparked many good and long lasting memories for us, and of course, concluding that we miss all of you; Lynn, Jackie, Keith, Sue and all the kids. Please remember that you are close in our hearts and will remain there for years to come. Our thoughts and prayers. Love,
Terenia, Loretta and Brad Combs
