Words cannot express the love and care you have shown us during the last several weeks of Daddy's life and his death. Everything has meant so much. All of the phone calls, texts, food and visits helped us to rejoice in the life of daddy. Pastor James was wonderful in the care of my family. These gestures will never be forgotten. Much love to you all.
Love and Thanks
Virgil, Kathy and Thad Buchanan
