You will be missed tremendously not only by me but all your loving friends and family! I love you and miss you and you are always in my heart! Your loving brother Jeff
Lonnie Sr, thank you for the gentle joy I experienced in knowing you, if only during my short visits to see my sister, Whom you were an amazing father in law to. You are valued and cherished and will never be forgotten. You’ve left such a legacy with your amazing family, who will no doubt continue to improve the lives of those around them. See you up there some day, can’t wait to tell you about the chainsaw I just got and talk power tools or something fun. Xoxoxox
