From family and friends

El was a great friend of my dads-Hoppy (Gene Hopkins). I never got to meet him, but felt I knew him from dads stories. He was so kind. My husband worked @ one of the plants EL went to. He would ask my husband about us every time he came to town (dad passed away 4 yrs ago, but he still cared about dad's family). Prayer and God gets you through the difficult times. So sorry for your loss.

I know that E.L. will not only be missed by his family, but he will be missed by those of us who had worked with him over the years. I always knew I could count on him to show up, & do a good job, the few times he worked on projects for me. I'm sorry for your loss, & your family will remain in my thoughts & prayers.

Life is eternal, and love is immortal, and death is only a horizon; and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight. E.L. will be patiently waiting on the other side.

BoBo was the BEST brother in law ever. Always the life of the party. I never knew a time when he wasn't smiling and trying to make those around him smile. He will be missed by us all. God Bless those left behind. We know Heaven is happy because our brother is there.
