I would like to thank each of you for your prayers, visits, calls and cards during the past month. Thank each of you who were able Friday and Saturday to visit and show you love. Many of you came great distance. It is because of the great care each of you have shown that causes the loss to be easier to cope with. I as you will miss him very much and will be a great empty space for a long time. I can him say, "you must go on and live life". We must go on and strive to be the example he was for over 87 years. I am so thankful to have had the privilege to not only know him but have him as friend. Again thank each of you for your prayers and ask to continue them to help me during this empty time. -Roy Gambrell
