I knew Kim for 40 years she was a great and caring lady.she loved her family and her life.she will be missed.

My sweet sweet dearest Kristin. You weee my EVERYTHING!!!! I fell in love with you many months before we actually became a couple. Once we shared our stories and after the first cosmic connection, I knew that we were meant for each other. So many times we finished each. Others thoughts. We can feel each other’s existence no matter the distance between us due to quantum entanglement. Kristin I love you so incredibly much, for so many reasons but the first one I should say is because you believed in me and gave me a chance. I didn’t believe in myself, but you did and you saw something in me that has allowed me to start believing in myself! You are one of the most amazing women I have ever known. You are so loving, so caring, so empathetic, so unselfish, and the list could go on to infinity I know our paths were meant to cross on this plane of existence, and I am convinced that we will meet again in the next realm. Your time is not done, just need it in another dimension. I do hope that in that dimension you’ll be riding a unicorn instead of driving a vehicle because that would be pretty bad ass! And if that’s thee case I hope that there is a pixie flittering along beside you as your side kick. Christian you have magical powers you’re on your own understanding. Do you make magic happens every time you open your heart and mind and mouth. You do things that others only wish they could do. I can only hope that I gave you a happy and peaceful year. You certainly have given me the most amazing time in my life. Nothing, no one, and nowhere will compare to the experiences that I have had with you! My sweetest dearest ANGEL, fly high with eagles, post up in a tree and be a wise, And every now and then just for shits and giggles, become a cigar and shit on a tourist head for feeding them on the beach! Baby I love you so much and I can feel your presence beside me all the time. I wish I could reach out and touch you, but I’ll just have toWait for you to reach out to me. If you try and hurt me please only do it in funny ways, because you know I’m already a scaredy-cat! Kristin JENNINGS I love you with all my heart. In my mind you will always be Kristin Hannah nowYou are an amazing woman on this earth, and you will be an amazing woman on any plane of existence that you exist in. I love you my sweet angel! ItgYou are an amazing woman on this earth, and you will be an amazing woman on any plane of existence that you exist in. I love you my sweet angel! Today tomorrow forever!!! Today tomorrow forever and always❤️❤️❤️

The first day I walked into coastal horizons, you were the first person I gravitated towards and called my friend. I'm shocked at the thought that such a beautiful person could have such an early end to their life and that more people won't have the joy of knowing you.. I could tell that you got something out of helping others rather than it being a job and you will never know how much you really helped me better myself but just know that you are truly missed and you'll always being in my heart and in my thoughts Kristin.

Steve I just learned from Bill about Tricias passing. I am so saddened for you and family about your loss. I was just talking to my wife a few days ago about what a beautiful wedding you two had. Our love and prayers are with.

I miss you Kristin. This world lost a beautiful soul but heaven has gained her. Thank you for everything, thank you for genuinely caring about myself and others. I am so lucky to have met you and I will remember all the advice You gave me as well as your encouraging words. You will be missed, your beautiful smile, sweet voice and your genuinely caring heart. We love you Kristin The world is a duller place without you but you Left your mark on so many hearts you will never be forgotten. Rest in paradise sweetheart.

And for you will do.i thank you and appreciate you and all you've done.love you Kristin Jennings.love u sincerely.may God be with your family .

I just recently met Kristin at her place of employment. She was so helpful and was always so positive. She was such a sweet person , with a beautiful soul . I am so sorry for her family/friends on your loss. I overheard the patients this morning talking of her , and how kind and great she was as a nurse and person . She impacted many people — including myself . Sending prayers

Kristen was like a "breath of fresh air" meeting her at her place of employment. She uplifted me (as well as my brother) each and every time we spoke. She made me feel as if I had known her forever. What a loss for this world; but, she left her mark! She definitely left me with the desire to spread kindness. Love & Peace to her Family and Friends.

RiP Steve. You were like a brother to me.. we will all miss you. I will see you again. Who knows mabey we'll have a spaghetti dinner again. Love you.

Kris and I went to nursing school together and became very good friends; my journey would not have been the same without her. After graduation we worked our 1st four jobs together; unfortunately we lost touch when she moved. She had the most amazing smile and was always a joy to be around. Never had a negative thing to say about anyone and always ready to lend a hand to someone in need. She was just a beautiful person inside and out. My life was truly made better by knowing her, I was blessed to call her my friend. I am so deeply sorry for your loss, I know how much she loved you and was loved so much by you. I loved her too and will miss her

Carol - I enjoyed Ron’s comments in the newspaper. He was very involved, including delivering meals to those in need. Know that your “mermaids” are here for you, Carol.

Mary Louise, Ed, Bill, Patrick, Colin and Kate. I send you warm thoughts and special prayers on the passing of your mom and my “Auntie Lou”. Although I chose to attend Kindergarten instead of their wedding, she soon forgave me as we enjoyed good times at family gatherings in Worcester, summer vacations at Hampton Beach and as I got older, long phone calls at night to “catch up on the rels” or hear about the latest trip to the “Old Sod”. Those phone calls always included stories of each of you as she spoke with such pride of your latest accomplishments and adventures. My wish for you all is that memories of those fun times together with your mom/grandmother will remain in your hearts forever and pop out and bring a smile to your face when you need it most. God Bless! Hugs, Clare Tee

Rest In Peace Patrick. We’ll never forget you

"for he who sheds his blood with me this day, shall be my Brother forever..." Mac, Semper Fi.

The loss of Kristin cannot be put into words....to say the least, it is utterly heart-wrenching. If only you had that one last moment to tell her how much you thought of her and give her that big hug! I saw and spoke to her every day of work for over the last year and she was one of my go to people whenever I needed help getting something just right for a patient! She never said no and was always smiling even at 6am with all the whirlwinds amongst us! Her spirit will live on forever but her loving person will missed terrible!!!!!

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all the Fowler family, we will continue to keep you all in our prayers

A true friend and great colleague to work with .Truly you will be missed and I will recall the good times we had at coastal horizons !

I had the honor of working with Hoogie, really sad to hear of his passing. My condolences to his family you're in my thoughts and prayers.

Best Polka dancer ever!!!! Even if you didn't know how to polka, he would almost lift you off the floor as he lead you around the dance floor. He once bought me a book "How to Watch Sports on TV" because I asked too many questions during a hockey game we were watching in the basement at the old house. Love you Uncle Vinco, the world has lost a great Brach player and a really sweet guy.

So sorry for your loss Faye. I know how much you will miss her. But we will see her again. I sure miss those yellow rose, country music days. They were the best. Prayers for you and your family. Love ya.

Me and my Sister,Miss Queen Butterfly,Hilda Grace would talk 5,6 times a day,and some times more,if nothing else just to say what are you doing,or how do you feel today.We would call and tell each other that our favorite show was on.I would always check on her to find out how her night was or if she had eaten anything .When a storm was coming we would call and tell each other how scared we were.We use to go dancing at the yellow Rose and Country Music all the time.I loved and miss her so,so much.Life is and will never be the same.God got a Special,sweet Angel and the best of the best.Love you,Miss Queen Butterfly,Hilda Grace Harrison.

May the God of all hope, love, and peace surround the Johnson and Lancaster families today as we celebrate the life of one of the most caring and hard-working individuals in our lives. Ginny lived and loved well and we are all better because we knew him. We love you all and know that Kenny will live on in and through you.

She was an absolutely wonderful and loving friend and person. She will be greatly missed and forever remembered!

Sue and Aaron, my heartfelt condolences to you and the family during this time of sorrow. Joel was indeed an outstanding individual who touched the lives of many in his professional and personal life. I am thankful and honored to have known him and to have called him a friend. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Susanna I am so sorry for your loss I can imagine your brother was as nice as you are my condolences to you and your family

Kristen was a very sweet person. Kristen you will be missed!

My deepest condolences to you and your family ❤️

We are thinking of you Sue and Aaron with love and sympathy at this sad time. Ginny and Dargan

Tom and I are so sorry for your loss! Please let us know if you need anything! Your neighbors,Tom and Tammy

We are so very sorry for your loss. Sending lots of love.

I first met Mody (Rosie) at the age of 15. Both of our families had homes in Chadwick beach. It took awhile for us to warm up to each other, but eventually we became good friends. We drifted in & out of each other’s lives as we got older. If you didn’t understand her dry, dark at times humor, she left you wondering for sure. We reconnected over the years. It made me feel so helpless when she lost Bill & then Finn. There were no words to comfort her. She was so distraught over these losses. I miss her sarcasm the most, she was a master. We built so many fond memories in our favorite place, Chadwick Beach. We had free reign of the beach & surrounding beaches & when we were all together, there was nothing we couldn’t do. So many fond memories. We were lucky kids. I have pictures of us on the beach, too young to have a care & yet so many teenage stresses. I hope you are finally at peace & not suffering any longer. I will miss our late night messenger texts. You were salty right to the end. I’m sorry you were suffering. I hope it’s summer all the time wherever you are. I miss you. XOXO

I met Mike when he came back to work Johnnie Mercer’s pier. We would swap fishing stories and just talk almost every Friday and Saturday night. I had texted Mike last week without a response and this morning found out he had passed away. My condolences to his wife and son, he spoke about you both with great pride during every conversation. I will keep his family in prayer and will surely miss my friend.

We will sure miss him, he was loved by all. Our fond memories of him was coming to get our Mom and he and Doris would stay gone for hours and talking about yesteryears. He knew everyone and no one was a stranger to him.

I’ve known Rosemary aka “Rosie” for many years now as a Tider resident. Not many people udersterood Rosie- I mean who the heck does? But me, being from the outskirts of Philly always got it. I didn’t just think she was full of shit, I knew it! And that there is why and how we became friends. I miss you Rosie. I’m sad Rosie - so damn sad. RIP MY FRIEND ☘️

Sue, I am so sorry for your loss. May your memories bring you comfort and peace. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Sorry to hear about Tricia. Been thinking of you guys lately. She will be missed. Keeping you in our thoughts

Sue, many heart felt condolences to you and your family. Memories are eternal. -karen

U were my 1st friend, have known u since we were 4 yrs old. I know we lost touch over the yrs, but I still remember all the times we shared growing up. U will be missed

Sue, Tom and I were very saddened to learn of Joel’s death. We have happy memories of spending time with you two. You, Aaron and the family are in our prayers for comfort during this difficult time. Karen & Tom Shafer

Kenny was a wonderful young man - so loving and caring about his mother, his wife Libby and family and his church. He will be missed.

You were one of the few people I truly missed seeing regularly when I left Wilmington. Glad you were happy for me with the change in job and I’m glad we stayed in touch for most of it. I still can’t process it.

Brian was my neighbor here in Wilmington. I’m so sorry to hear of his passing. Nice guy. He loved the pool and that’s where we’d always catch up. May he Rest In Peace. My condolences to the Coyle Family.

I'll miss you peyton..I still can't believe your gone...

Thinking of your family during this time of loss. Not only was I a colleague but also had Dr. Mintzes as a professor. So sorry for your loss.

REST IN PEACE MY SPECIAL FRIEND I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU AND YOU WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART THANK YOU FOR ALWAYS BEING MY FRIEND

Mack you will be missed for great talks and our time rockin on the porch and visits in charlotte and by your sister may you rest in peace and ty for your service

Rest In Peace My brother. We will meet again. Panzerfaust39

Carol, may you & your family take comfort in knowing that Ron is resting in the arms of Jesus.

Our deepest sympathies to the entire Spolarich family. Love, the Wazyboks

Joel was a wonderful scholar and I was honored to reference his work in my own teaching and scholarship. You will be missed and prayers to your family.

Carol, Jennifer and Jeffrey. My deepest sympathy. I am so saddened by this news. I will always be grateful that Ron and I got to see each other after such a long time apart. Keeping all of you in my prayers.

You will be greatly missed

Aaron and Sue, May your wonderful memories of Joel carry you through his sad passing. Know I am thinking of you both at this difficult time.

Patrick cared more deeply for his students than most. I was lucky to spend time with him, both related to assisting students in financial emergencies, along with setting up a new scholarship for his program. He was an absolute joy to speak with, a kind soul, and truly one-of-a-kind person. I feel lucky to have known him for the short time I did.

Lindsay, we have you guys in our prayers. So sorry for your loss.

We wish you love and comfort during this difficult time. Love the Browne’s. Brian, Pam, Julia, Ciara and Ava

Words cannot express the sorrow I feel for your loss. Patrick is a special person & I was privileged to see him grow & mature into the one we will miss so much. May God comfort you all.

Joel was one of my first friends when I arrived to teach medical sociology at UNCW in 1985. He remained a friend to me and my family through the university and the B'Nai Israel communities. May his memory continue to be a blessing to Sue and Aaron and to all who cherished his keen sense of humor.

Patrick was the embodiment of dedication as a father, husband, educator, and colleague. He was truly committed to supporting the success and advancement of everyone around him, and he gave his all to every endeavor he undertook. Patrick’s work ethic, commitment to excellence, and personal integrity made him an exceptional program director, and he modeled these attributes for his students and colleagues with a quiet strength. Those of us fortunate enough to have known and worked with Patrick will remember him always with the deepest respect and sincerest admiration. May time bring to Kate and the boys the peace and light that Patrick would wish for them.

I only knew Peyton through a fellow friend, Josh Tyler. He spoke highly of him, and always had good things to say. A tragic loss.

Peyton will be remembered as the best grocery manager HT has ever seen (a competition we had between me and him) but more importantly I will remember him as a great friend. My life will not be the same without him in it.

I have some fond teenage memories which include Mebane, Suzanna, and Peyton. You guys were quite entertaining when you all got together. Our family is praying for all of you and keeping you in our thoughts. You have a bond very few families are blessed with having. Fly high Peyton!

Praying for you all and keeping you and your family our thoughts.

I will miss my Brother Robert with all that is in me. We will meet again and I will get as many hugs as I can. My heart breaks knowing that I can’t see you right now but I will one day I’ll be crying glory at the feet of Jesus with you in one accord. Just don’t give all my hugs away... You made it home to that mansion up on a hill! Glory Hallelujah! I love you Brother Robert! ❤️

Suzanna, Thoughts and prayers for you and your family. God bless you all. Just know that Peyton is in a good place.

I have worked with Patrick for the past 19ish years. He has always been a great friend and coworker. I have never met anyone as passionate about his work and even more about his family. Kate, you and the boys are in our thoughts and prayers. He is already deeply missed.

My sincerest condolences to Sarah and Stephen, as well as all those that were blessed to know Jerry.

John was a good friend to me and my daughter. We loved him very much. We had a running joke about my cat. I had a note on my back door, “don’t let the cat out!”- and every time he came to spray, he never saw the cat!! He’d always leave a note saying as much, even questioning if there was one! He will be dearly missed in our lives.

A man who loved people. He will surely be missed by all who knew him.

Thinking of Ken today.

Words cannot express how much I cared and he will be greatly missed. He was faithful in everything he did. He always wanted to help others and do things around the church. He loved the Lord and God gave him a beautiful voice to sing. I feel lost without him but I know I will see him again. My prayers are with his family, they feel like my family too. Sorry I couldn't be there but due to medical reasons is the only reason why. He would do anything for you and you know it came from his heart ❤. Love you always my brother Robert.

Words can not express how

Cynthia Justice is

Mack - I wish I would have had more of a chance to get to know you. The few times we did get together you were very open and welcoming. We did get a few hands of poker in, but it should have been more. Thank you for your service to the country. I will do my best to care for your daughter and be a supporting family member. RIP.

We are sending our deepest sympathy and prayers to all of the Freeland family. Patrick is and will always be missed by his co-workers at CFCC. He was a dedicated, passionate, and an excellent instructor. I know he loved his family very much as he always mentioned you during our conversations. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers, Wes, Lori, and Noah

Keeping all the family in our thoughts and prayers.

I remember Peyton from when we were all much younger - and he was full of life even then. I’m so incredibly sorry for this loss for the Berg family. Sending tons of love, lots of light, and the biggest virtual hugs I can to you all. May you all be blessed and surrounded by God’s love.

God bless him. Thoughts and prayer’s to Charles and family. One empty chair at the dinner table is one too many. Love you all

What a wonderful service for a well deserved husband, Father, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather, my surrogate Daddy, Friend and Patriot. I love you Daddy Perry and only sickness kept me from being there, tears poured down my cheeks and into my lap as I watched. To my surrogate brothers and sisters I love you all. I know they’re dancing in the sky finally together again. God speed Perry into the arms of Jesus and Joyce . I love you with my whole heart always. Susan ♥️

I love that his grandchildren called him dziadzio! Rest in paradise Ron.

Patrick Freeland will be greatly missed at CFCC. He was a great instructor and advocate for his students and program. I hope the Freeland family can find peace and solace during this tough time!

Sue and Aaron, I am so sorry to learn of Joel's passing. Joel was my first mentor at UNCW - I taught a section of BIO 105, with him as lead. And I recall Aaron being in our wedding.

He will be missed by all who knew him. He always made me laugh and was such a fun person to hang around. His smile could light up a room.

Shannon and family, We are saddened to hear of your loss. I hope you find some comfort in knowing what a great man Mack was. I have so many fond memories of his time in Mass. All the bike rides we took, lunches, cookouts and my two favorites, how we drank milkshakes on the front porch and me trying to convince him it wouldn't snow in July. Thank you for your service Mack, we will miss you and since the day you left to go back home, you are always in our thoughts. Charlie and Anne Taft A&C Motorcycles

How do you say goodbye to a lifetime best friend ? someone who has been in your life for 62 years?

So many good times. Wednesday night card games, taking you shopping and we always had to go to lunch afterwards. I will truly miss you my friend and your sence of humor. RIP Old Buddy you will be missed by me and so many others.

Dear “Sweet “ Eddie & family, I just found out about your mama’s passing, my Aunt, during the weekend via a phone call from Deleon’s wife, Beth. At that time, she didn’t have any facts but she called me again about an hour ago & told me her memorial service was to be held this coming Friday. I had tried to look up her obituary the other day but it wasn’t posted on line; but I just found it under Wilmington Funeral & Cremation. You & your wife (I feel she may have helped) did a wonderful write-up honoring Aunt Barbara Jane. I surely wish that I could have talked (I did try to call her many times but never an answer) with her just 1 more time or had seen her!! We were very close when we were younger. Allen (my husband) & I would go down & visit them when she & your dad (& you) lived at Seagate….we always had a good time together! Your daddy was a very kind, sweet & gentle man; my dear brother, Deleon & I (along with our spouses) always enjoyed your parents company!! I’ve been told that I resemble your mama some & had some actions alike….that’s a compliment! Yes I deed, you were your mama’s “little man”…Eddie, you were loved so very much by your parents; you have always been such a wonderful young man growing up. I know you will miss her greatly but she is now in the presence of her Heavenly Father & Jesus Christ, her Savior & Lord; she’s also with your daddy & some other family members…she is celebrating now & is no longer having any pain or suffering! I certainly hope & pray that I’ll be able (if my MS allows my body to do so) to attend her service. Please take care & remember that you are lived, even though we may not get to see each other! -Wanda

Sue and Steven- I am so sorry for your loss. Jerry was a kind and true gentleman. He will be deeply missed. All my beat, William

Sis , you are loved and missed very dearly. We still cannot fathom life without you in this world. You have always been there for us, give Jack and my Dad a hug for me and Mom. We love you!!!

My condolences to the Frye family .. Rest Easy My Friend ❤❤

You were an amazing friend. I'll never forget our card games and all the other great memories we shared.I love you Mack fly high my buddy

We are saddened to learn of Dr. Lewis' passing. We met him as he was a dear friend/masonic brother of my late father, Wilber D. Ward. Kelly and I took his Parks & Recreation class as an elective our Senior year at UNCW. Dr. Lewis was so entertaining and made the class a lot of fun! In speaking about his many travel adventures, he always mentioned a pub that he visited on his trip which made us laugh to this day. When Kelly made a 100% on a mid-term exam, Dr. Lewis made a big deal about it, stating it was the first 100% ever achieved in his Parks and Rec class. That was 1984 so I am sure, there have been more! Kelly later connected with him thru Cape Fear Council Boy Scouts before he moved away. He will always hold a special place in our hearts! Sincerely, Helen & Kelly Stevens

So Sorry for your loss, Tommy was a great Fatjer and Husband and a great friend You will be missed and Loved.

So, so sorry to hear about Mac. It must be really hard for everyone. Just want you to know that you all are in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.

Things are never the same here after you leave and now the world will experience this as well. You are missed and loved. Until next time Lady

You made such an impact on all who met you. In your short time in Massachusetts you made many friends. We enjoyed your company , your kindness and always looked forward to seeing you again. You became like family to us. We have missed you so much these last years when you went back to NC but always had you in our hearts. You have made a lasting impact on me my friend. I will never forget you Mac. RIP

You were my first and only man I was in love with and I love you still, threw all our time we were married. Time to rest now and be with your family in Heaven!

Remembering Jerry as a loyal family man who loved to share his talents with others, especially blue bird houses that he made! May he Rest In Peace! My love to Sarah and Stephen Chisenhall❤️

What a great national treasure. So honored to know that Mr. M. Pat Hingle served our nation during WWII. He was one of the greatest generation. 2021 is a year in which we focus on our struggles. He was a devoted actor and I am sure the family survivors think of him daily. My father also died of cancer in 2009 and people are not aware of how indebted we are to these men who fought in WWII for our liberty. UNCW is a very wonderful school for the youth of America to study acting. Sorry that I had not heard of his passing for such a long time. Rest in peace, Pat Hingle

RIP Bubba we love you and will miss you.

Patrick was a very good friend and just a great person to be around. I have thought of him often since I moved back home to the foothills. He will be missed by many. RIP, Patrick.

Was a great nurse of my whenind when I was in the hospital twice and she was my Mother's several times. She will be missed.

She e

Daddy I just wanted to tell you I love you. With all my heart. And I will miss you foreve. You We're The 1st man I ever loved my Hero and best friend. And all of the hugs and kisses you would give me. I don't know how to do life without you. Our early morning chats and laugher and our late afternoon Facetimes. You're pretty blue eyes and your big smiles Smiling at me. And our funny face's We made at each other everyday. It is going to be so very hard to live without you. I know with God I will. I still pick my phone up in the morning time to call you and to face time you in the afternoon. I keep getting Sweet little surprises on my phone with you singing and talking to me everyday. You were loved by so many. Its going to be hard walking through The days and not seeing you. But I will look up to the heavens and I know where you are Daddy. I love you to the moon and back and beyond infinity and more. I will see you again till we meet in heaven. I love you, your daughter Rene'

I only knew Jerry at work, DuPont, but he was always very pleasant, courteous and helpful. He was one to never say no, even when asked for help outside his area of responsibility, he would just say "let me see what I can do ". His passing will also be considered a great loss by his DuPont family. Mat the mercies of GOD be with all the family at this time.

Cindy, Murl and Family, my condolences on the passing of Mr. Gary.

Patrick Freelant family Is my prayers my condolences

So very sorry for your loss. May God comfort Ms Edith, Marsha, Cindy, Mary Jane and all of Gary's family,

Mr. Billy (Othelia, his son will get this) has been on my heart lately and i just found out that he had passed. He was one of my all time favorites and I'm going to miss him so much! We had some comical conversations and good laughs together, to say the least! My mind is saddened by his passing but I know he's enjoying his eternal home now. <3

Alvin you will be greatly missed by me & Eddie! We love you like our own family! Until we meet again my friend!

Kate, words cannot describe how very sad and how my heart hurts for you and the boys. I know you and Patrick were a wonderful couple and he loved his family so much. I pray that God gives you comfort through this very difficult time.

Many many good memories of work and friendly relationships. Jerry was one of my favorite people !

Patrick was a great instructor who cared for the best interest of his students. I knew Patrick for a short few years but in that time I can attest to his desire to help students understand and grow in the Diesel profession. He will be missed greatly by those who knew him and those who did not get enough time with him. Gone to soon but made such an impact on so many!

Kate, I know there is nothing I can write here that will ease the pain for you, your sweet boys, and Patrick's family/friends. But I know you are a Believer and God has you all in His hands. I didn't know Patrick that well, (but I knew him before I knew you thru CFCC) and the one thing I did know about him is that he loved his family. You all are in my prayers and in my heart. Sending Love, Hugs, and Paryers to you all from Pam, Hezekiah, and Isiah

I'm so sorry for your loss. Prayers and love for the Bass family.

Patrick was a very instrumental part in helping the Volt Center. When ever he would come down he would always share stories about his family and Cape Fear CC. He was a very nice person. He will be missed. Your family are in our thoughts and Prayers

To Michele and the entire LeBlanc Family - love and prayers, Rest In Peace Doris. All your good deeds through your faith and church have prepared you for this … wishing you love and laughter ever after..

Jason and Ben, your Dad is in heaven now with Mr Cal...just think of all the the things they have to talk about ! Love you, Dear Ones. May God comfort you and your precious Mom and keep you in His loving arms.

It is with great sorrow that I am writing this for Patrick will be greatly missed. I met Patrick shortly after he moved to the Wilmington area many years ago. He became a great friend and I remember his excitement when he came to work at CFCC.

Patrick and Family are in our prayers

I worked for Jerry in the Powerhouse in the seventies. I will never forget our long talks about life and overcoming obstacles. Also, the positive comments Sarah always made about my son. My prayers and condolences to Sarah and the family.

I worked with Jerry at DuPont and he frequently would come to our area. He was always smiling and his happiness rubbed off on everyone. Prayers and Peace be with you and family.

We just read of the death of Charles Lewis in the Star News. Charles and I were colleagues at UNCW albeit in different departments. My wife Mary played bridge with Helga and I occasionally saw Charles on campus always with a wide smile on his face. Our condolences to Helga and her family. God bless and comfort them.

I’ve interacted with Rebecca once during the soft opening of Burlington. She was such a sweet and kind woman and a great addition to her team as I remember telling her how amazing she was and the future success of the business is because of employees like her. Her passing away struck me with great sadness. My heart goes out to her family and May her memory be eternal

Her knowledge her gift, her profession Our Unit Teacher who shares her lesson A Best Friend through thick and thin How do describe Trish? How do you begin? It's the times in West Roxbury sitting on her deck the time on our floor hearing "Oh Sh- -"!

Dear Steven. We are so saddened to hear about Tricia’s passing. Tricia was the quintessential nurse. She was a mentor, a teacher, a role model to many of us as new nurses on Five Feldberg at Beth Israel Hospital. We looked up to Tricia for her support, guidance, knowledge, calmness in chaos, humor, professionalism, and friendship. We cherished all she was and who she was. Even as an older nurse, I still consider Tricia my mentor. She influenced good on all who knew her. May God always hold Tricia in the Palm of His Hands. We will always remember and honor our beloved Tricia Petell Brodhead RN. Steven you are in our thoughts and prayers. Love Kathy Cooney Mazzio and the Sunday Club of Five Feldberg Beth Israel Hospital.

I LOVE YOU. We lived together. You even helped in taking care of my mom. You were a Wonderful person.

I feel blessed to have known him. Always a smiling face and pleasure to be around. He will be missed.

Tommy Fowler was one of the finest men I've ever known. There was no click at Green Hill Hunt Club, he made sure everyone had a fair chance. Does it matter what financial wealth one achieves here on this earth; I think not , the only lasting thing we can hope to do is touch someone else's life in a positive way and show them love. Tommy did a lot of that. Like so many others; I'm going to miss my friend; I've had many buddies , but very few friends.Trent ,Hunter you guys, my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Sending all of my love and prayers for peace and comfort to Byron’s family. I am so very sorry for your tremendous loss. It is my hope that through the wonderful memories you will find solace and comfort.

Tina and I met in high school, and she once called me her best friend. I am so honored and blessed to have called you my best friend too. May you find blessings in the next life, my friend, as I was in this one by knowing you. I pray that God wraps His loving arms around Tina’s family and friends.

May uncle Milty be welcomed at that grand table in the hereafter where dinner is never, ever late. He was loved for who he was, cause he sure wasn’t gonna be anyone else! May he live long in our hearts.

I just heard of your loss. I am so sad to hear of Johns passing. He was one of the most genuine person that I had the honor of calling a friend. I will miss John!!

To the memory of John

Doris was a gift from God! We would visit her often after mass on Sundays. Life was crazy with my four kids and her house full but she was to me a rock. Keep Calm and carry on was how I saw her. When we left after each visit I would think”I can do this”! My deepest sympathy to all her children and grands.

Cory, Although I never did meet your mom, she gave you life and raised you to be the gentleman and awesome person I know. She will be with you always in many, many ways that you will see more and more each day. Hold her in your heart always and continue to make her proud as you always have. May she rest in peace.

Sarah and Steven, We are so sorry in your loss of Jerry and your Dad. Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.

George will forever be my hero. Every single time I visited Helen and him, he was always there, smiling. He has done so much and I will never forget him. I will miss him so much.

Dear Dad, despite the spatial distance between us, I always felt close to you. I wish we'd had more time together. I love you, Dad, and I miss you so much. Rest in peace.

Miss Alma was a very special women. The world has lost one of a kind. May she rest in peace . Praying for family. Love you Miss Alma and will miss you.

Our deepest sympathies go out to all of Tommy’s family during this time. He will be missed by many, so glad TaTa had the time he did with his grandchildren. Those will be special memories for them. Wanda, may you and the children be comforted knowing he is at peace, painless and flying with the angels. Love you all, continued prayers always.

Cory so sorry for your loss my condolences. Praying for the entire family as you go through this most difficult time.

I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Chisenhall's passing. You and your family are in my prayers at this most difficult time.

Lots of Hugs, Love, and Prayers.

It’s an honor to have known and worked with RC Henderson. He was my sergeant, my mentor and my friend. He was a fun-loving but competitive guy, whether on the golf course, fishing, playing cards or catching burglars. I remember him trapping a burglar single-handed on my beat (unassisted by an alarm call) where RC blocked the rear exit door with his patrol car while he covered the front until I arrived. I was, and still am, impressed! What great memories of a superb policeman, who always treated people fairly. My sincerest condolences to the family.

RC was my Lieutenant. He was always a gentleman. RIP.

I worked with Tina at Lutheran Hospital for many years and then she convinced me to work at Anthem with her. I always admired her as she was so smart and everyone loved her. She rose to lead positions easily. She was a hoot to work with. Tina absolutely loved her family and talked about you all frequently. I met Casey at Lutheran - my heart goes out to you and all the family. She was very proud of you all. She will be incredibly missed. Memories of Tina are close to my heart.

Ms. Alma was very dear to my mom at college acres church . Praying for the family and remembering her kindness to all .

John was good to my grandma and always could count on him for a smile everytime I seen him , Rest In Peace until we meet again ❤️

Sending my condolences to Joey and the family. Rest easy Byron ❤️

Jack and family, so sorry to hear about Jim. Those were the good ole days at the Fun Place! So long ago but so dear to my heart. Wishing you peace and praying for your family.

“The boy would argue with a sign post!”, as Uncle Rush used to say about Milton. I love and miss you Uncle Milty. May you rest in eternal loving peace from your brother and friend Charles

The boy would argue with a sign post as Uncle Rush used to say about Uncle Milty ! Uncle Milty was such a part of our family! Rest in eternal peace my brother, my friend!

Rest In Peace Aunt Alma.... you were a very sweet and wonderful person! ❤️

Miss you

I remember when I ran that store in War beside the apartments where we lived. He was always happy kind an had a smile on his face. Prayers going up for his sweet beautiful wife Freida an her family!! Ive know Freida all my life

I mowed RC's yard as a teenager and later worked with him for many years as a police officer. He was always professional and expected the same of those who worked for him. I had the opportunity to fish with him on several occasions and will say that was when he was most competitive. May he rest in peace.

I mowed RC's grass as a teenager, and then later worked for him during my time at WPD. We also enjoyed fishing together on several occasions. I will say he didn't like to be out fished and seldom was. He was a great law-enforcement officer and served the community well. Best wishes to the family.

Words just can't express the enormity of losing your Mom. Your family and friends are here to give you love and support to help you grieve and share all the wonderful memories that we hold dear in our hearts of your Mom. Those of us who were lucky to have shared our lifetime with her will forever be changed and heartbroken for losing her. Rest in peace my dearly beloved Cuz.

Zach: Our deepest condolances to you and your family on the loss of your Grandmother. Amy and I will be praying for you and your family.

RC was a fine man, good supervisor and awesome police officer. He was my lieutenant for a few of years at the Wilmington Police Department. We would always exchange jokes. Most of his were ‘appropriate’ and most were usually funny or at least silly. He had a great personality and sense of humor. After his retirement, I rarely saw him. Until one day…I saw someone I thought I recognized at the ReStore in Ogden. It had been several years since I last saw the Lt. I wasn’t sure it was him, so I stalked him around the store until I got close enough to hear his voice, then I knew it was him. What a great reunion! From then on, every time, no matter what time or day I went to the ReStore, he was there. When my husband met him (in the ReStore, of course) they were like kindred spirits. My husband also collects old tools and they would show each other what they had found and talk tools. It was always good to see him. I miss him. Rest in Peace, Lt.

Each year at the end of the month of June, we had to scour the whole parish for some workers for .the parish festival. I was so happy to see Doris as the adult volunteer willing to guide a teen for several hours in one of the game booths. She was our "hawk-eye" steady helper for years. There was no cheating while she supervised

We are so sorry to hear of Tricia’s passing. Lots of fond memories of our times at Norfie. Steve, please accept our condolences.

We want to say we are so sorry for your loss. Mckenlee Loved her Tata! I am so grateful for that little girl to have known you, and got to grow with you.. You and Mimi have been by her side since day one. Mr. Tommy you had such a bright spirit and loving heart. You would do anything for us. It will never be goodbye. We will forever miss and love you

Milton was always joking around with all the "kids" and never failed to greet me with a hug and his gentle kindness. He will be missed dearly.

My deepest condolences for my (KRO) shipmate Cory and the whole family.

OMG! I'm so sorry for your loss! Tina was my great and loving friend all through all through nursing school and beyond. Even though we lived far apart, we talked together on facebook. She consoled me when I lost my husband a few months ago. God Bless her sole and my thoughts and prayers to your entire family!

John made my mother smile and laugh every day! You will be greatly missed but thankful that you are not in pain now!

I haven't seen any of the Carters in many years. All my memories of Jim are of his sweet smile. Thinking about his family.

Lee & family, Our prayer is that God’s peace will surround you & guide you during this time! We will see our loved ones again one day with Jesus!

Cory, my heartfelt condolences to you and your family. May your mom Rest In Peace and smile upon you from heaven.

We are so lucky to be raised in a GOD loving family my thoughts and prayers are for all of Tommys family love you all s family

He was such a good man and always a caring gentleman. ❤ to his family please know I feel your pain. My husband died 3 years ago at age 64 from ALS.

A sweet lady, we served many years alongside her in church and will miss her greatly.

Alma, was a sweet lady! Always smiling. She will be missed here on earth, but her reward is heaven!!! Alma, has two sweet sisters, I was fortunate to live by Elizabeth (Lib) for over 50years.

Condolences to family. So many good memories from 1st grade until our last conversation a few months ago.

I’m going to miss you my brother. We haven’t seen or spoke to one another in ages but, I still remember all the great times we had here in Jersey. I’m still in shock that you left us. God had a better purpose for you my brother. I will always have you in my heart. Allah yir hamak and inshallah you enter the highest level of paradise. I’m sorry I couldn’t attend your funeral. Ever since that sad moment came to my attention. I automatically heard your laugh in my mind and seen your smile in a daze. Rest easy Habibi love you broski !!

Bryon began working with Thomson Corder in early March of this year. He always had a smile face on face and something positive to say "good morning" or "have a good evening" well wish whenever he you saw him. He loved his job and driving trucks. He will be missed and sending prayers to Joseph, Donna and the rest of the family as they walk thru this valley together.

Although I never served on RC's platoon at the Wilmington Police Department, I often worked overtime for him during the early 1980's. Unlike other Sergeant's, RC always thanked me at the end of the shift. I never heard anyone say a bad thing about him. RIP, Lt. Henderson.

I only knew you, Byron for a short time but the times we spent together will never be forgotten, only cherished. We spent the weekend with you and Donna only two days before The Lord called you to your final home. We reminisced about the family gathering and how much you enjoyed yourself and eating the delicious food especially the chicken wings we cooked. We talked about getting together again soon but you're now eating big at The Masters table. Rest in peace brother in law!! I'll take care of your brother Chris and your mom to the best of my ability. We love and miss you so much!!

A beautiful person inside and out. I was so lucky to have met her and her family.

Hey Peyton I came by here to show that you're still being carried in my mind and thoughts fly high

Wanda I am so sorry for your loss. Praying for you and your family.

My husband and my best friend, you will always be in my heart forever. I love you and miss you so much! I will see you one day in heaven!

A wonderful woman to have known. You will be missed. Rest Well Brenda !

My Great Grandmother was a one of a kind. She was always caring and loving others and she loved everyone equally! She is my idol and someone I look up to. I will continue her legacy as nurse and make her proud. Her smile and compassion will never go extinct. Her heart will always be with us.

Absent from the body. Present with his Lord. Peace and grace to his family.

Cory, my most sincere condolences to you and your family. The thoughts of many are with you.

Cory, My condolences to you and your family for your loss. May God grant you all the strength and courage to overcome your grief while still being able to enjoy the cherished memories you will all have forever.

Wanda I am very sorry for your loss. No words can describe this feeling. I pray for you and your family.

Dear Steve, so sorry to hear of Tricia's passing. Although we did not know both of you very well, we were touched when we were welcomed to join you at the Christmas party when we first arrived and knew no one. Tricia and I shared stories of long nursing careers in the Boston area. She was a fun and sweet person. So sorry for your loss. Take care of yourself.

Such a sweet lady.loved her smile.

Such a sweet lady loved her smile.

Sleep in peace my friend and work mom. You are already missed.

Dear Debbie and family, Your Mom and Pastor Gus were a big part of our lives when we first moved here in 2004. Vince helped Pastor Gus with the Hispanic Ministry at Leland FB Church and the four of us spent a lot of time together. I will miss your Mom. She was a good friend and a sweet, Christian lady. You all have my deepest sympathy.

So sorry for your loss. He will be greatly missed. Rest in Peace Uncle Irvin

Such a lovely lady and such a strong Christian. She used to greet all of the people at College Acres Baptist Church as we came in on Sundays, always with a hug. She used to look for me when I worked at Walmart and give me hugs there too. Miss Alma will be greatly missed.

Marybeth, my heartfelt condolences to you and your family, your mom was such a special friend to me and my family for more years than I can count! Her laugh was infectious, her wit, style, and kind heart are irreplaceable. I’ve posted a picture that I took in 2015, showing you, your mom and Carol. It was always a delight to be around your mom, and I’m sure we has a fabulous evening that night!! She will be missed by the many people whose lives she touched! I’m honored to have been one of them!

Tina, I’m so glad we got to talk to you when we did, you had us in stitches! We love you so much just like we told you when we talked but now we’re going to miss you forever.

I wanted to share my deep condolences with the family during this difficult time. I know it’s hard to accept that someone we all loved has passed away. I will truly miss my dear friend. She was a jewel and will always be in my heart along with your Dad. I will cherish all of the sweet memories we had..sitting on the porch talking, long conversations on the phone, visiting her in the hospital and our favorite…eating lunch at the Olive Garden which we thoroughly enjoyed. Rest In Peace my friend. I will close with this quote by Mitch Albom, “Life has to end. Love doesn’t.” Please let me know if there’s anything I can do. May God bless you and I’m sorry for your loss.

Prayers for your family. We lost a brother far too soon.

Condolences to family and friends of Byron.

Always a very gracious man with lots of wisdom

RC was my Sergeant for 5 years and it was a pleasure working with him. He was always a professional policeman and an ever present friend. We also enjoyed many hours off duty around a card table. Rest In Peace my friend.

Nelli, we are so saddened to hear of your loss! We always loved our encounters with you and Charlie when the 4 of us were out shopping! We love you! Larry and Beth White

When I first met your dad, and then your mother, I knew almost instantly that they were God's children. Captain Branch was my training officer at Winter Park Volunteer Fire Dept, and your mother always helped with our fund raising projects back in the 1970's and 80's. Both were giving, expecting nothing in return. They were the salt of the earth.

i worked with RC and he was a good friend....after retirement he and i drove for dealerships transporting cars...we had many good memories while driving together..he was proud of his family and he often spoke of them.RC, Roger and i went to see the tarheels play a few times , thanks to his daughter,she was a student at unc at the time....to all of his family i wish the best...i know it is a sad time for all...RC was a good man and i will miss him we had many phone conversations in the past...GOD BLESS HIS FAMILY AND MAY HE REST IN PEACE...

Very sorry to hear of Tricia's passing. She was a wonderful person. Steve, please accept my sincere condolences.

Rest in peace My Cousin you will Be truly missed

Thank you so much for the notes and cards, we've shared over the years. Thank you for watching over Susan and Lynda. Condolences to your family and many thanks for their love and support.

Seems like the Lord is calling the best and loyal children home on a regular basis these days. Brother John, ran his race, fought his fight, and sang his song. I'll miss John and his encouragement. Prayers are with the family, and church. Praise God, we'll see him again...

Brenda and family you are in our thoughts and prayers. May God be with each of you in the days to come and provide you comfort during this time.

Mr. Ragan, was a very good fellow, I always enjoyed talking to him about our Navy days. He was a skimmer sailor and I was a submarine sailor. I sure am going to miss him, I was thinking about him just a day or two ago.

Bro. Midgett was so much more than a friend. He was like a father to me. He took me into his life and loved me as his own. I have special memories of going fishing to his “secret spot”. After a period of fishing he would let me jump in the water and splash around. He always made sure I had a way to church and I spent many hours in his home with his precious family. I will miss his contagious smile and bear hugs added with his kiss on my forehead. He loved everyone and he was not ashamed to show it. Bro. Midgett made this crazy world just a little better because of him. I will miss him sorely.

Greg was such a great friend and guidance.. he will be missed so much

I will miss my dear and ever sweet cousin, Gladys, so much. We kept in touch on the phone being I live in Jersey. I always looked forward to seeing her even though it was very seldom in the past years. She brought me much joy. I treasure all the beautiful memories, especially our childhood.

Steve, we are so heartbroken for your loss. “ There are some who bring a light so great to the world that even after they have gone the light remains.” That was Tricia, friendly, fun and she always had a smile.

Jerry and I will always miss seeing Irvin at church. Such a faithful soldier. Prayers for his sweet family.

Sending my deepest condolence.

Praying for all the family.

Go rest high!

Ron was a great co-worker and friend. He will be sorely missed by everyone. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

I have very fond memories of RC when I was a young Officer. Fair winds and Following seas my Brother.

Rebecca was one of my best customers at my Painting With A Twist studio in Orlando. She loved art and was always trying to better her skills. She became friends to many of us at the studio and would always stay well after a class was over to help us clean up and talk. She was so funny, entertaining and a joy to have in our studio. She has been taken from all of us too soon and will be sadly missed. My heart goes out to her daughters and family at this most difficult time.

Steve, We are heartbroken to hear of Tricia’s passing. She is at peace now.

You were a beautiful soul. Very loving and caring. May you rest in eternal peace.

A week later I'm still having a hard time wrapping my brain around the fact that my friend who was so full of life is gone! Michigan Football kicks off their season today and though Rebecca would not have been at the watch party here in FL... I just know that we would have been texting each other today about the game. She was a DIE HARD Michigan Football fan and I'm so glad that she found our club's watch party 6 years ago and that I introduced myself and welcomed her into the group. Who knew that day that we would become such good friends!! I'll think of her everytime I hear Bohemian Rhapsody, at every Michigan football watch party, whenever I'm playing trivia, while watching BBT, the list goes on. RIP Rebecca. Enjoy watching UM football with Bo!! My sincere condolences to Lily, Aine, your parents and all who loved you!!

So sorry to hear of the passing of Bedford. He was such a wonderful person. You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers.

My heart hurts so much tonight. I lived Nancy like my mom. She was always there if you needed her with her asthma open in love for you...not just me but everyone. Nancy and Leroy married Mark and I 30 years ago on September 7th....My dear Nancy I know you are rejoicing tonight with Laura and Leroy...Eric is there too he loved you so much like we do give him a hug for us. I strive to be just half the women you were. I'll never forget what you instilled in my life being the example of God before us. See you soon precious angel.

You will always be in my heart Uncle Ron love you forever,

Pastor Nancy will be truly missed by children and adults that knew her She was a true servant of the Lord who she served from her heart I know she’s dancing at the feet of Jesus along with her beautiful daughter

I am very sorry to hear about RC's passing. While I have not seen him but a few times since his retirement, it was always a pleasure to see and talk to to him whenever our paths crossed. I know Brenda and the rest of his family will miss him immensely.

Steve, our hearts are broken over the loss of Tricia. After knowing you and Tricia for over 40 years and going on over 30 trips together, we will miss her terribly. We had so much fun looking together for the perfect place to retire, and once we found it, we only wish we had more time to enjoy it with Tricia and you. Tricia was such a warm and funny person and she will be greatly missed by everyone who knew her. Love, Mike and Sue

Rest Easy Bobby ❤

Words always seem in adequate at a time like this. Mr Midgett was a dear friend to me and my family. I truly love this man. We met while I was having coffee at a restaurant in Wilmington many many years ago and have stayed in touch every sense. I never saw him that he did not have a smile on his face and something cheerful to say. I will miss you so much. I am sure the reuniting of you and your wife was a wonderful day in heaven. Sending much love and hugs.

My condolences to her family. I had the greatest gift when I met Rev. Nancy and her beautiful family and friends she was as they say the life of the party she loved and taught so many people the amazing love for God and his son Jesus. She knew how just to be a light in a dark world we are living in but her beams will shine down on her family and be there guiding light in there time of grieving

I thank God for you Daddy Perry, you were the 2nd daddy to me and my siblings because our parents were Best friends since before I was born .I seemed like our families were joined at the hip, everytime my daddy upped and moved us for another job we would always end up together. To my sweet Siblings Vada, Robbie, Rene, Bruce and Jeanette , words cannot express how I love you all and my heart is broken for the of your natural father and my second daddy . Fred (my daddy Bobby Foster Sr)and Barney are reunited with Betty ( momma Joyce) and they are awaiting Wilma( my mom Maynell.) She sends her love and condolences to all of you. Daddy Perry was a gentle ,kind , loving and a Godly man that I loved very much and will miss very much. Till we meet again Daddy Perry , I love you.

We will miss you pastor Nancy..

My deepest condolences to the dear family. I had the pleasure of meeting her through her grand-daughter Hannah, and it was such a blessing and she made such an impact on soo many. My son was able to attend the merging in christ youth camp free of charge for two years and it was one of the best experiences for him and our family as well.. Nancy touched soo many families and so many more will be touched through these amazing kids at this awesome camp. She was a wonderful lady who brightened everyone's day daily. Her passion was her grand kids and family and her light will forever shine through them. Much love and prayer

I’m so very sorry for your loss. Tricia is an angel now watching over the family. Love, Susan Witz

Melody, I am so, so sorry to learn you have lost your dad. I remember him as such a beautiful person. May God surround you with His arms of love.

Today Bug in. Rug treated the home where I work. I learned that Mr. John is in the arms of Jesus. I want to extend my condolences to his coworkers and his family. Also his extended Church family and friends. I want to let you all know that Mr. John did not just spray for bugs, he took a job that would put him in peoples homes where he would have the opportunity to witness. (GREAT marketing for Jesus there John!) and I am here to tell you that is what he did. He shared his love of GOD and invited me to his Church. Already a Christian I thanked him for sharing his testimony. I was so sad to hear of his passing. But so glad to know he is in Heaven ! See ya there Mr. John.

Pastor John we’re going to miss you more than you can imagine.We loved you very much.I know you’re dancing at Jesus feet and rejoicing in the love of The Father the Son and The Holy Spirit Rest In Peace

Steve We are so sad and heartbroken for you. Trish was such a warm and wonderful person who always had aa hug, smile and something nice to say to everyone. Our Wine Club has missed Trish and it will never be quite the same without her. I am sure all our golfers will say the same thing. We have lost a gem. It is heavens gain and our earthly loss that she now rest peacefully and painlessly with our Father in heaven. Constance and Jon

Trishy was the absolute best. Kind, compassionate, a great friend and a lot of fun. She enjoyed life and shared that with others. It was my privilege to be her friend. She will be missed beyond words.

You are in our thoughts and prayers and may faith, family and friends help you through this difficult time.

I miss you grandpa…♥️ I'm so happy that I wrote this letter to you, three years ago.. and even tho I’ve never had the chance to meet you in person and to hug you, will I keep all your loving words in my heart. I love you and will miss you forever.

We extend our deepest sympathies to you and your family. May the soul of your father be at peace with our GOD in heaven.

So very sorry to hear of John's passing. He was a wonderful Christian and Pastor. We will be praying for ALL the family, church family and friends during this difficult time!

To Mike… Thanks for making her so happy. To the children… she loved you all so very much. To her grandchildren …. You all were her shinning stars. Keep her love with you. Love you all

Mrs. Sidds was my first teacher when I moved to the Nordonia school district. Her passion for teaching reflected throughout her classroom, during indoor recess she taught us how to knit and we all had the opportunity to make scarves for the winter. Sidds believed that lifesavers was the remedy for a sore throat, it's something I still believe today. She will truly be missed, I am grateful for the opportunity to have been her student.

I am sorry to hear about your Grandfather Chris. Janice and I are thinking of you and your family.

Trish was by far the most peaceful and gracious people I had the opportunity to know. She was kind and a good sport, I was so glad to know her and Steve, they were partners in every way. Tricia will be missed and a legend in her own right.

I like Trish a lot. And, she knows that too. I invited Steve & Trish to play golf with Marilou(wife) & I. To make a long story short, I missed a four-footer putt whereas, Marilou made a shorter putt. Trish blurted it out, “Marilou, aren’t you glad someone in your family can make a putt?”. I knew then I like Trish. I will miss you Trish, your smile! Stevie, we are here for you!!

My heart is absolutely broken. We shared so very many wonderful times on vacation, golfing, going to dinner or just hanging around. I will miss my friend dearly and will always remember her with great fondness and much love in my heart. Rest In Peace my friend.

I am so sorry for you loss. I wish I could have known her more. I live in Ms. I didnt know that my sister Sue was named after her.

We (Mary & Dennis) met the Sweetest Craziness person namely Rebecca at a job interview for the New Store Opening (Burlington in Wilmington) This girl was so much fun I Wanted to Work for her hands down!! I went thru training and when I was done that afternoon I stayed to talk with her and all she could do was talk about her daughters and how special they were. she loved them so. We talked about my children and grandchildren and made plans to get together. I loved this woman so much I wanted to make her proud for giving me and Dennis an opportunity to work with her..Rebecca was full of energy, had a crazy sense about her which we Loved, and a laugh that was contagious!! also her singing and dancing was outstanding !! We will truly miss her!!

Tricia will always be in my heart with fond memories of many great times. I can't begin to drscribe how sad I am for Steven and all the Petell family. Much love, prayers and sympathy to all.

We were blessed to have you in our lives Uncle Ron...you will never be forgotten.

My husband and I met Rebecca when we started attending the U of M alumni game watches in Orlando. She was an absolute blast, so much energy and spirit! She was the life of the the party and the game, always including everyone and loved to meet people and make new friends. We loved having her with us for all of the games! She always had stories and had a keen sense of humor and a way of making us all laugh. She has an amazing heart and soul and will be missed.

I'm so glad we moved to NC in 2017. It gave us the opportunity to spend 3 years together. Good times, sad times, regardless.. We built a strong bond and Im so very thankful for those memories. I love you and I'll miss you so much. Till we're together again.. ❤

Working with her in receiving……she would sing. She rapped along to Hamilton. She was funny, caring, and I loved her! Enjoyed spending the day with y’all and going to Bonefish Grill in Wilmington. She will truly be missed!

I met Rebecca many years back when she moved to Orlando and joined our U of M alumni club for our football game watches. She quickly became one of our favorite regulars and despite not being an alumni, also became one of our most active members. Rebecca came with me on a club leader workshop trip to Ann Arbor and it was such an awesome time with her. I managed to get us upgraded to first class on the flight and I vividly remember her being so excited because she has never sat up there before. She also became part of a regular group of club members that played trivia in Orlando which eventually led to her becoming a host. I don’t know that I’ll ever be able to watch a U of M game or go to a trivia night without her at least crossing my mind for a brief moment. I hope they serve Irish Nachos in heaven. Save me a plate.

Condolences to Bedford's family and friends.

So many great memories of growing up in Walden and the VanOrden's were as much a part of our family as you could be without actually being born into it. We celebrated my Mother's birthday today and i was just informed, needless to say this was not the news i would have expected. Rest in Peace Georgianna, you will be missed y all of us...

My family and I met Rebecca at East Coast Wings in Orlando. She was the host for Trivia. We went there every Tuesday because we truly enjoyed trivia with her. She was amazing. I have a painting that she did for my second daughter of an elephant. She brought it to the hospital when I had her and she also made sure to bring my favorite chocolate muffin. She was the sweetest and will be missed dearly. Forever in our hearts. Lily we are always here if you need anything. I remember seeing you at trivia with her too. I’m pretty sure you also played Pokémon while you were there, maybe. It’s been awhile.

Our Deepest Sympathy, hope you all heal your hearts and find peace.

Georgianna was the best sister-in-law anyone could ever have. She had a heart of gold she was very giving very helpful Andvery passionate about her family. She loved my brother Mike very very much and took very good care of him. I will miss her deeply rest in peace my sweet sister-in-law❤️❤️

I remember when I first met Rebecca at Firehouse subs in Pensacola when I was 19. We were even roommates when Lily was about 2. We had wild and crazy adventures. She was my go to for so much.

Ed was a remarkable fisherman, electrician, and person. It was a pleasure working with him since he moved to Wilmington several years ago. He was an integral part of our team at New Hanover County and I'm proud to have supervised him during his year here. I will miss his positive attitude, jokes, and massive fish pictures greatly.

The world has lost a good man. He will truly be missed by all who knew him. He was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, coworker and friend. Always a gentleman. He was an avid Steelers fan snd passed that on to his children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. The family is in our thoughts and prayers.

Aunt Mary Jeremy and I and the kids send our love in these times of need we love you noth. I know ots hard right now but he is in heaven partying with mom and listening to Kenny play his guitar he is not suffering no more. We love you very much.

Mary, Dan was more than a brother-in-law to me. He was my big brother. I remember all the crazy things you & I did when you two were dating; the walk from Wrightsville Sound to Princess Place Dr & getting into the North 17 drive-in movie theater where Dan was working. The time after little Danny was born and you were so sick & I had to take care of him, at age maybe 15, I sure did not know what to do with a baby. The many times you both helped me, over the years, during some of the bad times of my marriage. I will never be able to repay you two. I love you both with all my heart. Your sis Doris

JW was a people person and was always welcoming and caring. He was such a loving and caring father and family man. He will be greatly missed! He endured so much in the last few years physically and emotionally-yet he continued to show strength and fought so hard! Rest In Peace!

I didn't know that it already been so long sense he past away

Jean, I'm so sorry to hear of Alan's passing. Prayers for you and the family.

Wonderful man. Could not asked for a better boss's.

Jay will be missed but the memories he left behind will remain. Jay was fun to be with and had many friends and family in Greene. I had the pleasure of graduating with Jay in 1966. Jay, Tom Breck, Hal Mondore were buds in school. Jay was a gifted musician and so talented. His heart always remained in Greene even when he settled in Wilmington where he raised his two girls! Being a grandfather was a gift and one that he cherished.

I value all the years we worked together helping people with their taxes. Alan was a steady, valuable volunteer and a great person. I will miss our time together each year.

Jerry You were definitely one of a kind. Please don’t talk our Lords ear off as He has other things to do. Till we meet again my Brother from another Mother. Also I haven’t forgot that You still owe me a Christmas present.

He was always smiling ,even when we were not having a good time at work. He just made things better and the world has lost one of the good ones.

Im still in disbelief. We sure had ourselves a good run! Ill never forget all the things we did over the years. I will always have the stories that start; "Remember that time me and Randy......" Thank You for looking after me all those years. If you could keep that up from heaven I would appreciate it!! I told you I was gonna keep you till the end. I just thought it would be much much longer. Rest easy my friend. Your job is complete. I love you Brother!

Randy no matter the years since Joey and I have seen you our memories will last forever from skiing to bond fires to squeeze cheese fights to convincing you to wear a “monkey suit” in our wedding. You meant so much to us. We pray for peace and strength for your family and friends. You were a “you get what you see” kinda guy and everyone loved you for it. One of a kind. Rest In Peace our friend

Although I never meet u personally I knew u was a great man and u will be missed by so many people,especially ur babygirl harley

We in the grill at Clear Run will miss you!! Much Love to all the family!! One of a kind!!!

Gary, Blessings Be With You And Each of the Children and Family.

I was very sorry to hear that Mrs. Tanksley passed away. I knew the Tanksley family from Our Lady of Assumption School as I was in the same class as Sheila and Mrs. Tanksley worked there. They were always so friendly and nice - a lovely family. In later years Mrs. Tanksley and I kept in touch as we had a mutual friend and a love of animals - especially cats. Deepest sympathy to her family from me and my family. May she Rest In Peace.

Meagan and Jonathan, We are thinking of you and praying for your family during this very difficult time. Sending our condolences. With love Gary and Wendy

I’m sorry to hear about Chuck - he seemed like a great guy and I’m glad he was a friend to the animals. I hope one of his family members can take in Honey. It would be a lovely memorial to Chuck and help you and Honey with the grieving process.

Mr. Schnur was a great biology at Canastota High School. Matt officiated our wedding and baptized our two oldest children before moving to North Carolina. We have many happy memories sharing a meal with you.

Mary, I am so sorry for your loss. Dan was an inspiration for all who were fortunate to know him professionally as well as personally. May God embrace you and give you comfort in the days ahead.

I worked with Ed for the county. Very smart electrician, awesome fisherman, stood on his on two feet. He was pursuing efforts to get his unlimited electrical license to further his career. I will miss him greatly. GOD BLESS you and your family.

Randy I will truly miss you. You won this race. Keep your eye on those young ladies of yours. Rest in Heavenly peace. Forever in my heart Veronica Fennell

Liz was a very special person. I met her 20 years ago. through those years she has taught me in ladies' bible study groups, assisted me with health appointments, guided me through difficult times in my family and helped me to find a doctor I could trust. I will miss her positive attitude, her helpfulness and friendship. She was a beautiful person inside and out. I know she is with the Lord and rejoicing.

Liz was such a sweet loving person who always helped me with my appointments at The Center. I appreciated always being greeted by Liz’s beautiful smile and gentle spirit. We always compared notes on our most recent Bible Studies. She was an excellent example of Christian love for everyone whom she met. I miss seeing her and I will pray for you all to be comforted by The Lord, Especially her children granddaughter and Gary.

I had the pleasure of knowing chuck and honey (his dog ) . He will be missed . Our prayers go out to Barbara and Eddie and the rest of the family.

Liz was a light to the staff and clients of The Center Blessing to her family and friends. Heaven is a lovelier place now.

Our friend Liz will be missed, but we know she is on a beautiful journey to a beautiful place. We will always hold special memories of her in our hearts. We send our deepest sympathies to Gary and the family. May you always remember the wonderful smile, humor, times and great homemade jellies. We were all blessed to have Liz in our lives, especially the family. Know that she is in a better place and waiting for you with a smile on her face. Lots of love, Dennis and Mary Lou

I will always love you Mama.

Ray was a dear, sweet friend. I have not seen him in years and was was sorry to hear of his passing.

Connie we are so sorry for the loss of Shuney and he will be greatly missed, Prayers for you and your family

So loved, by so many. A wonderful lady. Blessed to have her in my life so many years . Sending my love to you, always, Toni and Marty Estep

Met Ray going to breakfast at Saltworks II about 13 years ago. Always a kindly gentle man without a mean bone in his body. He treated my husband to a dozen flounder rigs he had tied himself. Our breakfast paths crossed frequently at Jimbo’s in recent years. Always a joy to chat with. A friendly breakfast diner where a person can get their day started surrounded by kindness… I swear that’s a little bit of heaven on earth. Thank you, Ray, for getting so many of our mornings started, right. You are a Ray of light. -Bonnie and Jason

Jerry, Joy and family. I am truly sorry to hear of your son Jerry’s passing. Please accept my condolences to you all.May God comfort you all as only he can as you try to make sense out of his passing. Stay safe and well.

Our prayers are with Rebekah and the rest of the family, words cannot heal your grief but your memories will remain in your hearts forever.

Sherry, I can still remember the day I got saved and became a member of Eula Church. I remember my eyes locking in on your beautiful smile. Ever time I came to church you had a way of making me seem at ease. I don't think you met a stranger. May your family feel blessed knowing another Angel received her wings. God Bless

Sherry was an amazing person. She was a good friend. I will miss her beyond belief. She was the most loving grandmother to our granddaughter Kalysta. I will always love her. Rest In Peace sweet lady and friend in mine.

Prayers for peace and healing for the family and for his brothers and sisters in the fire service.

Our condolences thoughts and prayers go with all

sympathy to all the family

We loved getting to know Doris through Chris and Marie. We could often hear her laughter from our backyard, and we enjoyed watching her walk the streets in the neighborhood. She had a beautiful smile.

Gone but not forgotten, you were like a Grandfather to me, you treated me with kindness.. and always made me laugh. Watching our crime shows together. Lol. Love you pops, you'll always be in my heart. Love Keelie

I worked with Alan directly and he was one of the nicest, kindest and humble people I've ever known. I'm so sorry he was taken away so soon. Jean, my thoughts and prayers are with you and the family. May God comfort you in this sad time.

I'll never forget our dance we had a Roger's wedding you mean the world to me and I miss you rest in peace

Doris and I were members of the Laetare Bible Study group from Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. For years, we discussed living Jesus. She did it! Even in the years after she moved from her home, we met with the "Bible Girls". Breakfast at the Sawmill was a Sunday after church ritual, coming to Dean and my oyster roasts was an every December event, which Rose and Doris loved. She was a good friend for 20+ years and I'll miss her; she's watching me try to live Jesus, and smiling her magnificent smile with her dancing blue eyes. Blessed.

Keeping you in prayers. She was a beautiful person. Always had a beautiful smile.

Sherry was a beautiful soul she loved everyone she willbe missed by everyone

Great guy, always positive. Proud to have been his friend.

Anytime Harper was around, I knew I could count on smiling. He offered such great wisdom and kindness, sprinkled with humor. I will never forget his commitment to a good joke. It was impossible to dislike him, and I am grateful to have met him. He made the world a greater place, and for that, he is incredibly missed.

Our prays and thoughts are with you. Alan was a great guy and he will be missed by his friends and family.

Sue Walker, sister to Charles, is my neighbor in Sevierville. I've been praying for Charles and his wife for some time now. Was so sorry when Sue called to let me know that he had passed away. your family will continue to be in my prayers.

Bob I’m sorry I will not be able to attend services for Sherry. I still have open wounds and the doctor doesn’t want me in crowds. I loved Sherry like a sister. She was always kind and supportive. She was always working for the Lord. those in WMU group know the laughter she brought and .fun we had working for the Lord. I will never forget her.

I will not forget your love and generosity to Jamin and Lloyd when they were establishing a home together, and when their son Zachariah came along. Thank you so much, Sherry. May God comfort and strengthen your loved ones, and may you find great joy in His loving presence!

“Aunt Sherry” was such a sweet, humble, kind, and selfless woman. I spent many days at her house with her niece and my best friend at the time, Elizabeth. We drove her crazy with our obnoxious teenage shenanigans, but there was nothing she wouldn’t do for us. I am thankful to have known Sherry and will always remember her. My deepest condolences go to Elizabeth, Camden, Mrs. Angie, Bob, Kalysta and the rest of Sherry’s family and friends whose lives she touched. You all will be in my prayers.

Charles and his family were my next door neighbors in Sevierville. I remember his humor and intellect. He was my birthday brother because we shared a birthday. Many in Sevierville have fond memories of Charles.

OUR SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO THE LEBLANC FAMILY LOVE THE FAIELLA'S

I remember the date very clearly. In was April 8th 1986. After returning home from work around 4AM I saw Mrs. LeBlanc walking in front of my home on Eastern Avenue. We talked a bit about her family and watched Haley's Comet cross the dark sky. I will always remember this.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Please take care and know you are not alone. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Alan was a great guy! Always had a smile! My thoughts and prayers for comfort are with you Jean and family.

Meeting Harper at App State and being privy to his energy, kindness, and sweet nature was a gift. Harper had a way of making people, myself included, feel seen, heard, and profoundly understood. His humor was unlike any other and his ability to say the right thing every single time was incredible. I feel this loss so heavily and my condolences are with the family and each person who had the joy of having Harper in their life.

Jane and family, My heart and prayers goes out to you guys. I remember all great hunting trips we had together and I am very proud of my cousin Jay as a hero, Patriot and person. God Bless..

Jay was an exceptional individual. I was VP and then President of CWA Local 3615 in Wilmington back in the early 70's. As President I was building a strong Job Steward base to represent each department in Southern Bell at the time. Jay was a smart, aggressive and strong in our Union beliefs. He stood out above others and I appointed him as a Job Steward. He was ferrous and relentless in his representation of a wronged employee.Management knew there was a tiger in Jay when he would walk into the room. He is surely missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Billy was a true friend - God be with you Peggy

One super individual plus great friend

lots of great memories that will always be there - God be with you Connie

JANE, I WILL MISS JAY. HE LOOKED AFTER NE WHEN I WAS INJURED, AND I WAS LOOKING FOWARD TO TAKING CARE OF HIM. LORD BLESS YOU.

RIP in Peace Nephew in Law

Thoughts and prayers for you and your families

Jane, Lyndsey, Alison and family, my heart goes out to you all. I have the most wonderful memories with this family that I will always cherish. From beach house trips every summer, DEMON WARP and just practically living at their house. Losing Jay is like losing a dad for the second time.

One of the things I always looked forward to when we went to Kure was getting together with the North Carolina Excells. It always led to good times and laughter. It's hard to accept that he's gone. Our condolences to Jane, Allison, Lyndsey, and the rest of the family. Jay will be missed.

I had the pleasure of being one of Ms.Doris’s caretakers during her stay at Trinity Grove. She was a sweet soul and was so strong especially during her final days. My prayers are with her family during this difficult time.

I had the pleasure of being one of Ms Leblanc’s caretakers during her stay at Trinity Grove. she was such a sweet soul and she was so strong even in her final days, my prayers are with her family during this difficult time.

I just learned the news and am so sorry to hear. I had the pleasure of working with Bob back in the late 90s. I remember he didn't talk much at first but, then 6 months in he came out of his office and told a funny joke, we all laughed and he officially became "one of us at acoustics". He was a funny coworker and a great boss. My deepest condolences to the family.

Matt, I just wanted to send my sincerest thoughts and prayers to you and your family during this difficult time of the loss of your brother. May he rest in peace.

The Family would like you to consider making a donation to the following charity https://www.copdfoundation.org/

So so sorry to hear this I will miss her ❤❤

top of the top always took the high road great friend

With deepest sympathy to the family in your loss. Rebecca and Kenny Gurganus

Harper is one of the funniest people I’ve ever had the pleasure to know. I wish he knew how often he had me cracking up looking at my phone or computer. He was a sweet person and a talented writer. I’m very sorry for your loss. Harper was a light.

Jane, rest assured Jay and Bill are playing music in heaven.

Alex was one of the inspirations for my career and adult life. As a young boy he became a mentor and educator to me that was unsurpassed. His love of life and desire to learn were what exemplified people of the greatest generation. My memories include a family that included me and nurtured my youth. Semper Fi Marine. May Fare Winds and Following Seas always be with you in this next journey. Respectfully, Jeff

May this candle flicker with love and gentleness for the soul who has his wings in Heaven!

Loved Billy like a brother. He was kind, generous, humble and always smiling. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. May Father God bring comfort and strength to Billy's family.

What a loss!! When he spoke, people listened. Condolences to family. He will really be missed .I'm glad our paths crossed in this life.

I have nothing but fond memories of Harper, a wonderful cousin and even better person. The world is a worse place without him here, but I know he is making others smile in the next world.

Sorry to hear about my cousins passing. Will always remember the time we spent at our grandparent. The memories will last a life time. Rest In Peace Rick

So very sorry for your lose, just read the obit. She was a great lady and a good friend.

It was a shock to hear about my cousin Rick’s death. Remembering good times we had at my Grandparents house on Seneca river with Rick. We were born the same year but his birthday was 4 days before mine.

I know the pain you feel. My Jay passed away in Feb of 2020. These guys worked together back when the Bell system was a real telephone company. I will be praying for you and your family. Life will be different, but it will be ok because you have your memories. The love you shared will live on.

Ricky, Trisha & Maria, thinking of you guys and sending hugs! When I think of uncle Rick, I think of great music and big speakers! He always enjoyed music. Xxxooo your cousin Kathy

I would admire his thriving vegetable garden and all the different kinds of birds he would attract to his yard. My hope for you all is that you will find peace and comfort in the memories you hold. Bless you.

my dad was man who wanted to be left along as he had hard time and good time as he was good guy who done a lot for other as he was good guy

So sorry for the loss of Mr Potter. Prayers for the family during this time.

I met Harper at Appalachian State - he was part of the Rotten Appal founding team as we started an online satire magazine. Mostly, the club was just an excuse for all of us to goof off and make each other laugh. Harper was always the best at the latter. A lot of people in my life, including myself, are loud. People who want to get the last word, or who will use as many words as it takes to get their point across. Harper didn't mince words. He was quiet, thoughtful, and didn't open his mouth unless he knew what he was about to say was perfect - and it always was. Harper kept us all in stitches, and as he and I fell out of regular communication, his online presence brought a smile to my face more often than not. It had been a while since I spoke with Harper, but I was still gutted to learn that he had passed. That's the kind of impact that Harper had on people. To know him was to love him. He was unfailingly kind, curious, thoughtful, loyal, and funny, and he is gone too soon. My thoughts are with all of you and all who knew and loved him.

So sorry for your loss. I know heaven is a brighter place now with Harper there

So sorry to hear of Chunky's passing. He once lived across the street from us in Halifax, VT. He was a great neighbor. My kids loved him. So filled with stories. He will be missed

Jane, My heart break for you. My prayers are with you and your family

Harper was one of the most positive people I have ever met in my life. He had a huge heart and was very kind to everyone. He will be deeply missed, my prayers and thoughts go out to his family.

Kelly, Dan, and Nathan, I was so sorry to hear about Harper. You are all in my prayers.

He was a blessing to Riegelwood Federal Credit Union and precious friendship along the way. He will truly be missed. We pray for comfort and peace for Mrs. Connie and her family during the this time of loss.

I will miss Charles. As a neighbor and fellow veteran I hope he is in a wonderful place. Nelli, Please let me know if I can do anything for you

Remembering you will be easy. So many great memories were made. The Bugs Bunny one liners that would crack us both up when I was little and nights fishing at the beach... so many more come to mind. All those thoughts will always keep you close to me. Being my father's daughter is the very best compliment. You were anamazing Dad to me, Pops... love you, Mel

Ms. Libby always had a smile on her face when I saw her and seemed happy to be at work never complaining . She will be missed. Prayers for the family for the support they need.

May her family rest in peace knowing that she is with God and watching over her family.

Charles was avery special man.He was very interesting in so many different things. He loved to read, an the Bible was his favorite book of all. Yes Charlie will be missed by many, but will never be forgotten. God bless his wife Nelli,keep her in your prayers

Joan was a great friend to me when I moved to NH. She also taught me to be a Labor and Delivery nurse in the most caring ways. Living next door to her was a priviledge

Please accept our deepest sympathy. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.

I will miss you Dad. You were the strongest man I’ve ever known. Love you.

Our sweet Aunt Libby will be missed so much. She had such a great, sassy, fiery personality! I will always remember her stories and laugh. My love and sympathies are with Angie and Sherry, their husband's and children.

Gene, your Mom sounds like she was one awesome person! I didn’t know her but it is evident how she shaped you as person you are, who in turn touched my life as my very first flight instructor, and now as someone I am proud to call a friend. So thank you, Joan, for that! My parents have lived in Fort Myers since the mid-90’s, and I am wondering if they spent time in Lee Memorial when your Mom was working there.

Gene, so sorry to hear this news. Wishing you and your family strength during this difficult time.

Connie, I'm sending loads of love to you and the family. I was so sorry to read of Shuney's passing. Love you sweet lady

Aunt Joan was so full of life And love..She was a giving devoted nurse not just at her job but continuingly throughout her life ... She had sparkle and zest and love to laugh she devoted her life to family and others... I don’t ever remember too many times when she wasn’t laughing or having a smile on her face oh welcoming people into her home... I remember a story when she was living in Florida and there was a hurricane approaching and there was an older tenant and one of the other units it was all alone...Before the storm approached she invited him in to her unit which was in a safer location so that he would be OK..I’m sure she invited half the complex I don’t think they all came but that’s how she was..Growing up we all spent time at Great East lake with competitive board games boat rides skiing swimming cookouts and many celebrations..It’s quite sad that she has passed but she joins her mom and dad and her sisters Annette Leona Barbara And Marilyn and I’m sure they have welcomed her with open loving arms... We all love and miss you auntie rest in the peace that you deserve ❤️❤️

I’m so sad to hear about sweet Ms. Libby. Sending big hugs and love to Angie, Chris, and the whole family.

The employees of Walker Taylor at The Davis Community would like to offer our condolences and our thanks to the family. Mrs.Joan was a sweet, caring, and loving person that made sure we knew she was thankful for all who cared for her. Sometimes on the days that seems the hardest, her kind words were enough to help you get through the day. We thank the family for allowing and trusting us to care for Mrs. Joan, and we cherish the time we had with her.

Our family grieves for yours. May the love and light that was Harper’s carry your sweet family through these dark days. Heartfelt condolences from the Davidson-Pattishall family.

I was thinking about Mr Lackey this morning for some reason. I was in band with him. I graduated from Enka High in 1980. We moved to Candler from Michigan in July 1977. I remember hearing that my new band director was a drill sergeant in the Corps and he takes no crap . Though it is true, Mr Lackey had limits to his patience like anyone does, he was always a kind, decent human being to me. He always got my respect. I was living back in Michigan, working in R&D for Dow Chemical when I heard he passed away. Truth be told, I don't know of any of his students having less than good thoughts of John Lackey. He expected the best from people. What higher praise for your fellow human being could you have than to want to see the best from them. One day we will get to see him again. May Christ keep us so that may happen.

I'm holding you all close to my heart and lifting you before the Lord. I know that the Lord is very near to all of you, and pray that this service will be deeply honoring to Harper, to the Lord, and to all of you, and a deep comfort. I wish I was there to be with you and embrace each of you, but know that it is so in spirit. Much love to a very dear and special family. Martha Mullins

Ms.Clements had such a wonderful laugh! Whenever I think of her I hear her laugh. Praying for Angie, Sherry and the family!

Alex was one of the nicest people I have ever known. Right now, I can’t think of anyone nicer. For Alex, Everyone else came first. Alex and I have a special connection. He told me many times how much I looked like his roommate in college.

Deepest sympathies and prayers of peace and comfort to the family, especially Sherri, Duane, Audrey & Olivia ~ May the angels lead Mrs. Libby home ❤️❤️

Heartfelt condolences to Lisa's family. We're so sorry for the loss of your sister, Tammy. This has been such a difficult couple of years for you and the family. We're thinking of you and lifting prayers on your behalf for comfort and healing.

An absolutely wonderful person! Mrs. Clements always had time for her Patrol Deputies. She would always have time to listen and offer some advice when someone was having a rough day. She will be greatly missed. I also remember that, like clockwork, you could always find a birthday card in your mailbox at work on the appropriate day...she remembered them all, and it meant alot.

My deepest sympathy. May warm memories bring comfort.

My heart goes out to Bedford, Michael, and Robert and all their extended families. Rest in Peace Cousin

Connie, I was so sorry to hear of Shuney's death. He was a great work companion and he was a perfect partner in the duck blind in Arkansas.

Harper wuz there 4 mi wren no 1 elsa wuz.

Harper was such a genuinely kind soul. During a recent chat with him, he spoke about how he cared for his community and peers. That, along with his sense of humor, was my favorite thing about Harper; his ability to make those around him feel seen and cared for. His presence will be deeply missed.

Our prayers and thoughts are with the entire Turek family. We are so saddened to hear of Harper's death. Our deepest sympathies and love to all of you.

After reading several of the condolences, I am very sorry that I did not know Harper or ever had the privilege of meeting him. He seemed to be such a kind and individual. I am so sorry for your loss and cannot imagine your grief at this time. Kelly and family, I will pray for your comfort and peace...from the ONE who gives it best.

The Echo family joins with me in sending our condolences. Take strength in having him with you for 27 years.

I was deeply saddened to hear about Harper. Harper was a wonderful person. He had the hugest heart and always made others happy with his presence. He truly cared for his peers and was always there to help us out. I always loved when he showed me his funny tweets and hearing him talk about stuff that excited him. He will be greatly missed.

What a kind and gentle soul. Full of laughter and wit. He will be missed around here. Prayers are being sent for the family.

Harper will be dearly missed! I have nothing but wonderful memories of him. The way he cared for his peers was like no other I have seen. The energy he had was uplifting, supportive, and comforting. Harper was hilarious with that dry sense of humor and he was impossible to not like. Losing such a wonderful kid has been devastating and my heart hurts so much for his family. I know there is nothing that will take the pain away but I pray for the universe to provide the comfort and strength needed to get through such a tragic loss.

Even though I didn’t see Harper as much as Nathan, I could never forget his radiant laugh and smile. My deepest condolences and you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Harper was the sweetest and most genuine person I've met. He cared so much for others and always checked in with friends. He opened up and brought laughter and joy to every person he encountered. He was and always will be someone who impacted my life greatly.

What a lovely man❤️❤️❤️

My deepest sympathy to Annie and the rest of the Gaynor family!

Connie, I am so sorry, he was a good fiend and always cheered me up. I will miss him. I am praying for you and your family. Love you. C

Our family is devastated to hear this news. We first met Harper and the amazing Turek clan at Parents’ Community Preschool, where Harper stole our hearts. Many years later, our daughter Jo, caught back up with him and we learned what a wonderful, smart, funny young man he had become. Rest at peace sweet man!

Harper was such as joy when he stopped by to the office at MGCS. He always brought a smile to my face and had some interesting tidbit of information to share with me. He was a kind and gentle soul an will be missed. Praying for your comfort as you go through this time.

Kelly, I am very sorry for your loss. May the Lord comfort you. Gary Smith

The most genuine and kind hearted person I knew always brightened everyone’s day and was hilarious!!!! Praying for the family

Harper brought such joy to us at CCHS. As a freshman he seemed quiet and a little lost…trying to find himself. Spring of his sophomore year he wandered into my classroom, at the end of the day, at the beginning of musical practice, GodSpell. I asked him to stay and join us. Tentatively, he did. He wasn’t in the chorus, but, he sang the best he could. (He had the potential to have a great voice.) Although he had a minor role, he helped out anyway he could with a humble, giving spirit. The first night of the musical, he awkwardly took the stage following the lead of the experienced performers and blending well with the cast. The afternoon before the second night of the musical, we received word that one of our principal players would be out due to illness. No one could fill, Paul Hatch’s shoes. Desperately, I went to Harper and asked him to fill in. I told him we would make cue cards and get him excused from all afternoon classes so that he could prepare. He sweetly agreed. But, he told me, “I’m terrified, not sure I can do this, and you may not get what you’re expecting.” Moments before curtain call, with trepidation we turned to God. We all laid hands on Harper during our production “circle time”. (After the prayer, he kind of glowed. He had found his school family.) But! He was right. His first few lines were spoken shakily, it looked like he might not be able to handle the pressure. Then, the students on stage…his new family grinned at him and he took a deep breath and Harper SHONE! He took the lines given to them and put comedic expression to them. The crowd laughed, and laughed, and laughed. (I’m pretty certain those lines were not supposed to be comedic.) But, that was Harper! From that point on, Harper was a hit at CCHS. We all wanted to be around him and have his sweet spirit with us. The grief I now feel…can’t be expressed. But, I thank God for giving all of us those special times with him. Turek family, you are in my prayers, I grieve your loss, yet, rejoice in the memories. May God keep you all under the shadow of His wing. May the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, bring you into the fruit of God’s Spirit. May you know the fullness of God’s peace and love. Amen.

While I only met Harper a handful of times he left a last impression on me. His contagious smile will be permanently engraved in my brain. My love and support and continious prayers go to his amazing family.

My heart aches for your family! Harper was truly a gently and lovely soul. He will be missed!

Oh dear Kelly, my heart hurts for you. I am so sorry for your loss. Know that you are held in prayer and so much love.

Benjie and I are sending love and prayers to your family! We celebrate Harper’s beautiful life and welcome listening to and enjoying stories about his time on this earth! Much love

So sorry to hear of Alex’s passing. Alex and Patsy were our next door neighbors at the Marine Corps base at Quantico, VA, in 1961. My wife, Judith, and I shared many experiences with Alex and Patsy while we attended Basic School and Artillery School there, and subsequently when we were posted to Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. As young lieutenants, we shared cookie jar change to get milk money for Patty and our son, Kelly, when money got tight before the next paycheck. Sadly, we went our separate ways when Alex finished his Marine Corps career, but we managed to stay in touch. We had the wonderful experience to visit them in Yarmouth in 1990 when we traveled through the area. His passing leaves a hole in our hearts, but the memories ease the sorrow.

What a pleasure & joyful addition to life and to Wilmington and to our family- Harper was one of a kind in his kindness, gentleness and hilariousness. His loss is immeasurable indeed So heartbreaking and prayers/ love for Kelly, Dan, Nathan and all…

Harper was a kind and funny person and a student who was a delight to be around. I still have one of the music videos that Coach Scheffel produced with his film class with Frank the Pirate entitles “Student Life.” Harper took some foil and put it on his front teeth as his “grill” and did a rap–I think he was one scene he was on one of the modulars. This would have been at the original CCHS campus on George Anderson Dr. My prayers are with the Turek family with a grateful heart that I was allowed to be a part of Harper’s life while at Coastal. Peace!

I knew Harper during high school and he was the kindest person. He took the time to get to know everyone around him. I was fortunate to have been a part of some theatrical plays with him and shared many good times. You will be missed my friend

Harper probably did not know how much he was loved by all of his classmates during middle and high school, but he surely was. He made everyone laugh and feel good about themselves. Harper accepted everyone for who they were and was always there for them. He was a great friend to my daughter and they loved running cross country together. His mom and dad were always present at school supporting him in all he did. Such a wonderful family and young man who will be missed dearly.

I remember first meeting Harper as a wee baby boy at JDC, where I worked. So fragile, but bubbly. As he grew up, he (barely) tolerated Dan and I casting him to act in our small screen epics, reluctantly stealing the scene. His face always made me smile, every time I saw him. Very few people have done the same. His wit was intelligent, razor sharp, funny, but always kind. Such a gentle soul, he just felt good to be around. I will miss him dearly, but his far-reaching ripple effects will continue to ebb out.

I’m so sorry for your loss Dan. I miss you buddy hope to see you soon. Prayers for you and your family

Harper’s kindness and wit were a joy to experience. Sending our sincerest condolences and love to your beautiful family.

My sincerest condolences to the Turek family. I remember when he came to visit on the set of The Conjuring and he was such a beautiful soul. The world is a little less bright without him here.

I remember Harper as a tiny little guy in the nursery at Bible study and then as a student at MGCS. He was a delightful child- I am so very sorry for this huge loss. Will be praying for you Kelly and your entire family and Harper’s many friends.

One of the wittiest humans I’ve ever known! He brought such laughter to Coastal with his morning weather reports. It was hard not to smile around Harper! He will be greatly missed.

Anyone who loves cats and dogs so much is a friend to all mankind. He took the joy they gave him and spread it to the rest of the world.

Colleen and I send our love to your entire family. The grief is immeasurable but the loving memories will last a lifetime. He is embraced by his creator and is joined by many greats of this world. He and Robin Williams are having a time. Hugs to you.

Rest easy Harper. I didn’t know you personally, but you’re apart of a big family. I hope the Turek family can find peace.

I’m devastated writing this… yet I want to contribute towards commemorate him. What a gift to have Harper on this earth…even for the too-short time we did. The lad was hilarious – coming from such a stellar parental team. I remember his sweet little boy voice and kind friendships…and humour. Discovering his sharp wit and legacy… My heart to my friends who mourn an unimaginable loss… he lives in US. Peace be with you.

We send Kelly, Dan and Nathan, as well as their extended families our deepest sympathies and prayers for peace. Your loss is immeasurable. Harper’s wit made all he touched laugh and appreciate him. He will be missed by his all in his Y soccer family.

Harper made people laugh wherever he went. He was such a gift to this world. Much love to all of you. You are in our hearts. With love, Adam, Heather, Yumi, Thomas, and Zachary Alphin

I remember the first time I was leaving town for a convention trip and had Harper with us, he was the most clever, witty and funniest gentleman I have ever had the pleasure to be friends with. I will always cherish our times together and keep him in my heart and prayers.

You will be missed

Not a funnier, wittier, kinder fella have I ever known! His friendship to everyone will be a lasting treasure for all of us. Prayers for the Turek Family being sent by everyone!

Harper was one of my best friends from college. He always made me laugh, and I miss him terribly already.

Harper is deeply missed by his friends. We carry him with us now and always.

Harper was a bright light. Happy, funny and caring. We will miss you but you will be forever remembered in our hearts and minds. Love, Joe – (aka Mister Joe) Barb and Giancarlo D’Alessandro

Harper’s dry, witty, wonderful sense of humor will stay with us forever.

What a wonderful, sweet young man he must have been! Mike and I are praying for all of you fervently during this horrific time. May God hover over each family member and cradle them in His merciful arms. We love you all.

I’m so sorry for your loss! He sounds as if he was a joy to know. Praying God’s mighty strength and comfort from His Holy Spirit for you today and in the days to come.

Beautiful smile and laugh

We met on the trail about 200 miles in and hiked the rest of it together. He was an awesome hiking companion because he could talk for hours about Whitey Bulger or any of the New England sports teams. He was always quick with a favor and his signature contagious laugh. I will miss him greatly.

I was lucky enough to meet Tom in college at SCU. We instantly hit it off as I spend my early years in Boston. He was such a fun and funny friend – we always had a good time together. I send my deepest heartfelt condolences to all of you, especially Mr and Mrs Casey.

Very very nice lady♥️

I had the pleasure of meeting John in February of 2020. Even though I didn’t know him for a very long time he treated me as if we had know each other for years. He always had a smile on and made you feel special. He was a wonderful man and he will be greatly missed.

John was always a happy soul! I’m sure he is in heaven sitting on a beach enjoying the warm sand on his feet and the ocean spray on his body!

"Boy, did we have some adventures growing up. Some I remember. some I don’t! John had a heart and would do anything to help someone. was a great friend. So sorry he is gone but he is in a much better place. Love ya buddy!"

He lived in my neighborhood when we were growing up. Always a great guy.

I am so very sorry for your loss. John was a true gentleman and the kindest soul I’ve ever known. We are heartbroken at his loss, and we will love him and miss him forever.

Thanks, Sherrill Calloway. I will never forget the time John Efird, helped me free my three left middle fingers from the passenger door of a pickup as we were building an ASHS bonfire He drove me home very quickly in his Corvette? I passed out once during the ride and again when I got home from the pain. He was always a Good Samaritan in my book❤️

In loving memory of Jody Lopez, You will be missed more than you could have ever imagined. If the measure of a person’s life is how they impacted others and raised the spirits of those around them then you lived a exemplary life. I’ve never met someone who cared and loved so hard as you did and it inspires me every single day. You taught me the true meaning of love and loyalty even through all our hardships. I love you so deeply and I’ll be with you save a seat for me next to you beautiful!

I met Buddy in Camp LeJeune when he was a junior in HS and I was in first grade. I would hang out at the high school football practices at the Junior high. Buddy played catch with me everyday, let me carry and wear his helmet and taught me a ton about sportsmanship etc. The team took me on the bus to away games for two years. I never forgot how I was treated and often thought of Buddy as I played and coached sports throughout my life. So sorry to hear of Buddy’s passing. RIP Buddy, you were a wonderful role model and mentor to me. I will always cherish those memories!

Wish we had more time to catch up in our lives. Dad, you were wiser than you were given credit for. I’m proud to have been your son. Watch over me from heaven.

What a wonderful man! Geno, I will miss that smile and your stories. May peace be with the hearts of the family. He was so loved

"“There are no coincidences” Maybe I start there – I learned that phrase from Miss Anne and since her passing I have repeated this phrase many times. Her words give me comfort. I met Anne almost 27 years ago when we were both pregnant in Branford. She moved away when Eugene and Brad were 4 years old and Ali was a baby. We spoke almost weekly for 23 years never skipping a beat supporting each other from a far. It is true good friends do survive long distance and time. So maybe that is what I will say here – even though Anne seems so far away from us when we see her again “time” and distance between will just melt away because love and friendship does endure. As for coincidences Anne brought me and Ali and all of Anne’s support system together especially Barbara and for that I am grateful. They all love Anne and now I love them. It is true there are no coincidences – Anne l love you and I miss you.❤️"

My cousin Darlene, so beautiful.

I have so many memories with Scott over the 40 year. From my childhood friend to the father of my beautiful daughter Danielle . I love you Scott .

Oh the many memories of you .I will never forget all the inspirational things you would tell me when I wanted to give up. Thank you so much for all the times you let me consider you as my brother..Rest in peace and tell Ellen I miss her …

"Catherine was literally one of my first friends. Period. Whether it was kickball at the end of the street, chasing lightning bugs in the summer…chasing down the slushy man (which happened a lot) or sleepovers watching the late 80s/early 90s pre-teen classics… Catherine was a part of it. Walking home from the bus stop together for years taught me a lot about the kind of friend you wanted at that age and Catherine was it! Naturally, we grew apart as we got older. We made new friends, went on with life, etc. Yet, through it all, Catherine was still that person—clearly, to many. I will always remember her this way. Rest well, Catherine. Be troubled no more. I know Mr. Bob is welcoming you with the pipes as we speak…"

Buddy was a great football teammate who made me feel better just seeing him in the huddle and he was one of the only juniors to be out there starting with us seniors! I always felt like I could trust him on and off the field. I had not seen Buddy in years but he was always very kind and respectful to me and everyone else. He will not be forgotten anytime soon! RIP Buddy.

He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Love and prayers to Amanda, his girls, and his family.

My husband loved coaching Ball with you in Edinboro. Rest in peace Buddy.

Our prayers are with Buddy’s Family. He will be missed. His bowling buddies at Ten Pin Alley.

Too many memories to even begin naming them and even with all of the reminiscence I could share, they’re still aren’t nearly enough of them. I am grateful for the to me we did get but we all wanted more, Bud. I know you did too. We are here to watch over your girls. I will always be here for them… Just like you were for me. Rest easy, my dear friend. All my Love, Toni

Thinking of you with loving hearts and deepest sympathy. If you need anything ., please know we are here ..Tim and Lisa DeLuca

Without you is hard. I wake up every morning with your beautiful face in my mind and can’t believe you’re gone. You were my first son oh how I loved you. You were my joy, you gave me such happiness when you were growing up. You were my earth angel and no one could ever know the emptiness I have without you son. You were my reason to keep going. I miss you so much it hurts so much. I love you son and I hope you knew that, I hope you felt my love. I have flashbacks of all the good times, smiles and laughter we had. Thank you for being with me, your Mom, that last week you were here with me. It was a wonderful, fun week that will never be forgotten. You will never be forgotten for you have a special place in my heart. Until we see each other again baby. I love you, MOM

Rest in peace

I was truly sad to hear that Alex has died. My memories of him start back about 60 years ago to when he and Patsy were our neighbors in Freeport. He has always been good about staying in touch. I will very much miss his Christmas letters. I have so many memories… He and Patsy were so supportive during a difficult time in my life. Alex was an unusually gifted photographer. My first acquaintance with his work was when he did a black and white series featuring my CKC spaniels, but my favorite one of these was the one he took of them with one of our cats shoving to the front to take prime position (Alex had quite a sense of humor)! The last ones he showed me before he left Maine were some beautiful colored ones of flowers. Alex made so many lives richer.

Oh my goodness, no. I have just spent the last 45 minutes trying to find his phone number knowing he had moved to NC. I have wanted to have a long, overdue chat and have been thinking about him this last week. I am his second cousin and grew up with his family in Philadelphia. His mother and my mother were very close first cousins all their lives – I adored Cousin Patty and Guido. My daughter and I visited Alex and Patsy in Maine perhaps 5 years ago and had a very fun time reminiscing about Philadelphia life. I also visited Rita in Rome and have been eager to have news of her as well. My heart goes out to you all. He was a lovely, kind, delightful man and I will always miss him.

Alex was Denny’s college roommate at Trinity College and we have stayed in touch all these years. We have shared many special times over the years, especially when we would go to Maine for visits. Most recently, we were in Wilmington in November of 2019 and were so happy to be with Alex and Pats one more time.

To the Family of Alex Fava. So sorry for your loss , Wife Pat’s , Son Ted and Daughter Patty and their families.. He was so nice and will be missed. Love you all.

RIP ALEX

I’m so sorry to hear about your passing. You will be missed.

RIP ALEX, ALWAYS AND FOREVER

My heart goes out to you and your family.

Rosemary will forever have a place in my heart . She was a kind and caring person who never had a cross word for anyone. She was for many years my other mother and treated me like one of her own. We will all miss her terribly.

Dear Franklin and family, We sorrow but not without hope. Our hearts are heavy for you, but we rejoice that Kristi is with her Savior, Jesus, and that she has been made completely whole. We are praying for you often! Love in Christ, Living Word Bible Church

Dear precious family, so very sorry for the loss of Kristin, she was always very kind to us. Our love and prayers to each every one of you.

Anne was a special person and will be fondly remembered by the Food Bank family. We loved to see Anne come shop at the Food Bank on behalf of YWCA Parent Support Network. She will be dearly missed!

Thoughts and prayers are with you all at this very sad time may Mike's gentle soul rest in peace.

My heart is heavy with the loss of such a sweet soul. I lawns my love and prayers for the entire Faircloth family, may the Lord put his healing hand upon you all to give you strength through this journey. She is a bright light that will truly be missed on this earth.

My deepest sympathy to Terry’s family! What an amazing life he led. My you memories bring you comfort during this difficult time.

So sorry to hear of the passing of Terry. He was a great guy. Condolences to all his family and friends.

I enjoyed conversations with Jean at Thalian Hall, where she was a long time volunteer. She was always interesting and fun and I will miss her

I’m at loss for words. I’m really gonna miss your sweet voice. You were one AMAZING LADY who I loved and will miss dearly. I just said I was gonna go see you last week and I never got the chance to. I hope to see you again! Tell Michelle I really miss her and love her .. love you SueBug and I will miss you!!

Terry grew up on McCready Ave., in Cadiz, Ohio where there were so many families with children in similar ages as Terry. I was one of them, a little older, but still remember him so well. He was so cute. I treasure all those memories with the families and all the things we did together and sharing our lives. Terry's entire family were friends and I have many memories of all of us together growing up. Blessings to each of those who are grieving the loss of Terry. May God give you strength as you endure this painful time in your lives. Terry will be waiting in Heaven for each of you to join him when you are called. Treasure your memories.

Our deepest sympathy to dear Annie and all the Gaynor family on the loss of Mike, beloved brother and son.

Best day ever… he beat Dennis at golf! “ Finally “ ( he said). Going to miss you Terry…

Rest in Peace my friend. It was a pleasure knowing you and going to school with you.

Dave 'placed' me in 1983 at Serv-A-Portion, and it was the beginning of a long and wonderful friendship. In later years we only spoke a few times per year, but it was like 1983 all over again. Rest Well my good friend, you have earned a 'special place' in heaven.

Jo and I taught Spanish together in Wilmington for several years. She was an amazing woman, a talented teacher and a beautiful, sweet friend.

Went to school with Buddy at Lejeune and really enjoyed knowing him, and watching him play football. He had a wonderful attitude about life and I knew he would leave his mark on this world. RIP dear Buddy and Thank You for your service.

Lockey, I've known you since middle school. I have so many great memories about us, all the good times, not so good times, crazy things we would get into. Hands down one of the funniest people I've ever met. Your heart was always so big, I can't think of a time where a friend was in need and you didn't come to their aide. You got dealt a crappy hand with your injuries, and it just opened a door you could never seem to shut. All of my love goes to your family, your daughter, those that loved you and those that have lost you. I loved you girl. I'm just glad I didn't love you to death. ~tell Joshy i said what up~

Cat. What a joy to know .. In the short time I knew you , You were the joy, not only to me , but the smile of any room .The few things we did together was such a special time .Such a special person ...You will alway be in my heart .. Rip. I love you ....

Mama Sue, You will surely be missed! You were always a blessing to me when I was younger and you always made me feel like your daughter when I was around… I will remember the best times you gave me. And the time you came to my rescue when I was in juvenile center. I love you always and I know your up in Heaven with my mother and y’all are laughing. Rest In Peace beautiful lady!!!!

Benito was a talented man who had many skill sets with maintenance of homes. Benito, his wife Bertha and thier team members completed excellent painting; repair work at our home for years. He was always smiling every time I spoke to him. You could see the love and light in his eyes. He has a beautiful family to continue his light to all that meet them.

Cat was our family. She wanted that more than anything, togetherness and family, love and respect, although she was barely given a fighting chance until it was far too late and she feeling far too separated. Bobby would have known how to give her the help she needed. We had a few heart to hearts these last couple years that made me look at everything through rose-colored glasses. I am grateful for Catherine's presence in my life. Through it all I mostly wish i could have been there for her more.

May you Rest In Peace, Buddy.

Catherine was a sweet person I had some delivery times with her she was all smiles and nice she was a people person she always will be remembered Rest In Paradise Catherine

Remembering all the conversations we had while camping and the few times we all shared a meal together. You were delightful and fun to be around. I'll miss your upbeat personality. Rest in peace Babygirl.
