So very sorry to hear about the passing of your father. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family
Fred was my boss at Marathon. I had great respect for him and his leadership. He also taught me how to be a machinist. I am sorry for your loss. I pray for the family.
So sorry to hear about Mr. Carmichael. Your parents and my parents, John and Gladys Woodard, were such sweet friends and more like family to us. We just lost Dad on May 24, 2020. Prayers to all of you and your family. Much love.
Freddie, Joan , and Eddie,
We are so sorry to hear about your Daddy. We spent many a weekend your your family and have many fond memories. You all were like family. I know my parents considered them as much. I apologize that we didn’t acknowledge his passing sooner. Brenda found his obituary and contacted me immediately. We loved your Daddy. He always treated us like his own. We lost our Daddy on May 24th. I find comfort that he and Mr. Carmichael are in heaven together sharing stories and a cold beer. God Bless you all.
