Personal note from Charlotte & Family

To honor daddy’s wishes and beliefs, and to protect those who are immunocompromised, the memorial service on September 24th is a private-immediate family only service. Many have asked and I wanted to clarify. He will be interred on-site at S.V. and once everything has settled down I’ll post info for anyone wishing to visit the site in the future. Please know that he loved each and everyone of you and I know he’d be so happy and thankful for the outpouring of support you’ve given me and our family in this difficult time .

Update 9-23-22: If anyone has any stories to share of daddy please reach out to me personally or post them here. Since the memorial is private we would like to include stories & memories from those not attending as well. Thank you

Hi all, daddy’s memorial was so special, poignant, and simsple just as he wanted. I will share footage of it in the future. I also just wanted to thank everyone for all the love and support we continue to receive. Special thanks to Greg Povert, Annie McDowell, Aileen Thune, employees of Walmart Reidsville, Jacob and Meg Blankenship, Gildan of Eden, Carl and Sarah Gauldin, and May Hensley for sending the prettiest flowers. You all have been tremendous during our grieving. Love you all - Charlotte
