Our deepest condolences to Jeannie. Bill lived close to us and used to go to Liberty Friends Church. He as a farmer just like Daddy. He will be missed just like another who passed away recently,. Tommy Fogleman who was a former member of Liberty Friends Meeting. Not sure I had see him or Betty since I last saw at Loflins St Mother's viewing in 1997.

Jenna,
We are so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I wondered why I had not seen him but I do not take the paper or look at Ramseur very much. We were neighbors when we first married and lived beside him and you were born while we were there. He had a tobacco behind our house if I remember right. It has been 58 years so I am not sure. He grew watermelons and berries and etc for the market and sold them. We are so sorrow for your loss and hope you will heal by now, but you will always remember him. He and your mother used to come to WalMart where I worked with your child when it was young and I remember them being there a lot. I will remember both of them and say a prayer for you and Marty and children.
Love to both of you and the family.
Nancy & Bill Staley, Liberty, NC 27298

Jenna, your dad was always so helpful and loved in the neighbor hood. I moved there when Bart and I married in 1961. The end of 1961 we had a set twins that only lived 8 hours. Your dad and Ned Palmer dug a grave for them to be buried. Rack O'B riant gave us a plot to bury them. Now all 3 of these people have passed on and I don't know if there any other people as thoughtful and helpful as they were for us.
I am sure Bill went to heaven with angels surrounding him. I am so sorry for your loss.

My thoughts and prayers are with all the family. I will miss seeing Bill. I remember him and my father, Charlie, being such good friends when I was growing up. Bill never looked his age and was such a very special person,. Always doing something outside and gardening and farming. God broke the mold when he made Bill. He will always be with you in your heart. He is now wit Betty,again. God be with you at this time of sorrow and always. Love to all of you. Ellen Carter Luck

We can look forward to the day when there will be no more sickness and death. Revelation 21:4 says: "And he (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away". Please accept my sincere condolences. Always remember God loves you and he cares for you! (Isaiah 33:24; 1 Corinthians 15:26) jw.org
