Message from Ryan Deffes

I have so much to say and don't even know where to begin. I would give anything to be able to have this conversation in person. Thank You so much Dad for never giving up on me. I know at times it wasn't easy because I wasn't the greatest son. Now matter how far I had fallen you always were there to encourage and to help me pick up the pieces. It's eating me up that I took that for granted. I hope you knew how much I loved you Dad. I'm going to miss you more then I could explain with words. May your beautiful forever Rest In Peace. Love, Ryan

Message from Rhonda Armstrong

I met Mr. Ralph through my dad, Bobby Buuck. He always had a smile on his face and seemed to love life. Mr. Ralph always made it a point to come and see my dad when he was in town. My dad cherished his friendship with Mr. Ralph and we were very upset to hear about his passing. Our deepest condolences to his family.

May the family have peace at this difficult time. Please take comfort from the scriptures that soon all sickness and death will one day be a thing of the past. Please read Isaiah 25:8 Revelation 21:3,4
