wrote a sympathy message

“"Bub" was such an awesome man. I have known him for many years. He loved the Lord, his family and friends. He was always good for a joke or something to make you laugh. His wife Linda is so special and she has stood by and cared for him for many years. He will be missed so much. I am sure he will be looking for some cars in Heaven to tinker with. Bub, you fought the good fight, now it is your time to rest with God.”
