    Phyllis and family- I'm so sorry for your loss. Mr. Ira was a dear friend who will be greatly missed. Heaven surely has gained another angel. May God bless each of you during this very difficult time. Momma Phyllis you know I love you dearly. Love Tammy and Joey

    Sir, Mr. Meadows, Sir. I only knew you vicariously through Marla, my co-worker and friend. I laughed at her stories and cried with her through your last couple of rough weeks. One thing that I am confident about is that Marla loved and respected you dearly and know she and all of your loved ones will feel an immense void in their lives. I am also certain it gives them great comfort knowing that you are at peace with our Heavenly Father.

    Dad, You have always been one of the biggest influences of my life. You taught me that if a job is worth doing it is worth doing right. You taught me to be fair, be honest. That all you have is your word, your word is your bond. You taught me respect of myself and of others. For all the lessons taught and learned I truly thank you. Most of all I thank you for this last year of your life you and Mom, Mike and I learned to share a home together. It has given me memories that I will add to so many others and cherish forever. I love you,

    Granddad,
    Our family suffered a great loss, when we lost you. You will be missed greatly and I will always remember these words you have always told me, "You be sweet"
    Miss you and I love you!
    Miss Anna

    Dad - you were strict, tough and caring. You loved me enough to discipline me and train me. You also chose me - even though the state may say you adopted me, there was never any doubt that you were my dad and I was your son. Because of you, I learned to love, I learned commitment, I learned to value. I will miss you and miss not being able to call you; but I know you are in no more pain and waiting for all of us to join you one day. Thank you dad for teaching me to be a man.

    I love you

    Larry
