Wanda Faye Gold lit a candle

“My deepest sympathies to Janice, Kathy, Kelvin, and your families. I have a lot of good memories with all of your family over the years. I know Eagleton LL fields have been missing him there for awhile already as he was practically a permanent fixture there for a long time. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. We'll meet again one day in a much better place.”
