Alice, Donald,and John, I’m so sorry for your loss. Ray and Christine Riddle
So sorry to hear of your loss Alice, John & Donald. My deepest prayers are with you. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you Alice & John but the ‘ good years at Reynolds still are remembered.
My deepest sympathy to Alice and John in the loss of their Dad. He and my Dad, the late Francis Huntley, were Greatest Generation veterans and just six months apart in age. We owe them so much for what they did to keep us free. I have many fond memories of the Stroupe reunions in years gone by. Those were good times. Once again, my deepest sympathy.
Alice, really sorry for the loss of your Dad. Billie and Mike Burr
