Dana King wrote a sympathy message

“I am so sorry to hear of Coach White’s passing. I have such wonderful memories of him, as well as the entire family. Karen and I had so much fun together. I was always treated as one of their own. Coach White was an encourager, mentor, and a positive influence on me as a teenager. I truly appreciated and treasured his advice. Please know that you are all in my prayers for strength, peace, and comfort as only our good Lord can bring. Love, Dana Dudley King”

Gayla Langley wrote a sympathy message

“Ben and Joan Kay are very special friends. Wallace and I have such wonderful memories of sweet times with our two families. Ben and I had a special working relationship on our “vocational hall.” Ben was a joy to work with, but Wallace says he was even more fun to fish with! Ben was a unique person. I’m not sure he ever met a stranger. And I know he never met a student that he did not love. He has touched many lives. With love to Joan Kay, Karen, Carla, and David Gayla and Wallace”
