I am so sorry for your loss Tim. I am sending love and prayers to you and your family. I do remember my grandmother and I going to the locker plant to pick up her orders and if your dad saw me he would always tell me hello and ask me if I was still in school with you. I would just laugh and say yes. Your grandfather Dewey was my bus driver for years when we lived out off the Stoneburg Hwy. I used to sit right behind him with Beverly Penn,Randell Johnson and Teresa Burk and we would talk to him the whole ride. He was a really great man too. I know your loss is great right now but I hope you feel Gods comfort through this time cause it's there. My love to you and your. Cynthia Sims(Curnutte)
