Dwayne, Finally read the paper today, only to find your Dad had passed. It is never easy to face something like this. Your Dad was always nice to me and my brother & sisters as we grew up behind the fire station. He will be greatly missed.

What a wonderful man and dear friend. Hadn't seen him in years but thought of him and Mrs Miriam often. Lots of good memories. Glad our paths crossed, all the way from New Iberia, La. Prayers are with the family, we grieve with you.
