Memories Timeline

Guestbook

  1. I am so sorry to hear that you have passed away. I remember the good times we had when you would drive us to town in your daddys car. You, Barbara and I would go to the Hamburger shop and hang out. You and Barbara introduced me to the teenage years and we had a lot of good times. Dancing to old records and drinking Pepsi. Those days seem like just yesterday. I pray Gods comfort now for your children, grandchildren and your brothers. I will never forget you Pete. Louise Narron Jacobs.

  2. I remember always going through your clothes when I was young, probably 4 or 5. I would come out looking ridiculous with your clothes on, long necklaces, your high heels ( I tried so hard to walk in) & lets not forget I did my own make-up. I probably ruined it, but I was so proud of myself, trying to be my grandma and you always smiled and made me believe I did great…. these days Im still trying to be you. Im trying to be a grandma myself and if Im half as great at it as you were, Id be satisfied. I can hear you saying…stop fussing over me but its hard. Im happy for you, that youre not in pain, that you get to reunite with granddad, the sadness is for myself, knowing Ill never pull a surprise visit and see you sitting in the living room or taking care of everyone and I dont get to call you so I can hear..I love you shug…but I hope you know….love you too Grandma heart.

  3. My condolences go to the family of Ms.Wood. It is never easy to cope with the loss of a loved one, but God does give us hope! At Revelations 213,4 God promises that death will be no more. Imagine what a wonderful time this will be! I hope this message leaves you with comfort in the times to come.
