Janice and Wes. My heart goes out to you both at this time and the days ahead. Let me know if there is anything i can do. carolyn
Dear Janice, Wes and your familes,
As a kid growing up I remember how your Dad always had a smile oh his face and how he enjoyed life. When he would share about hill climbing his dirt bike there was always a tinkle in his eyes. Even after I married and we would visit Dad and Mom he would always say hi and ask how things were going. He will truly be missed.
My prayers are with you and I am believing that God will strrenghten you and comfort your hearts in the days ahead.
Love,
Quin Renfrow
To the family of Don Cline:
Mike and I would like to express our sincere sympathy to all of you. We think the world of Don and can’t begin to tell you how much we appreciate all the hours that Don spent with JoAnn Lee (Mike’s mother) prior to her passing. JoAnn as you know had been ill for some time with COPD and Don would sit and do jig saw puzzles with her, watch movies, help with cooking, running errands, and taking her to the doctor or hospital when needed. Don will always have a special place in our hearts. Don fixed up a red bicycle for me a few years back and I still enjoy riding it and will think of him when I do. So sorry for your loss. Take care and God Bless!
My thoughts and prayers are with you. I remember when I first met Don. It was a race at Countryside. He was just one of the guys and enoyed the race. It was an honor knowing him. I have the utmost respect and will miss him. God Bless!
Janice and Wesley was very sorry to hear the loss of your dad. He always had a special place in my heart from when I was growing up. Jan do you remember the day I got my license and knocked your dad down getting out the door to ride the motorcycle? Well what happened after is what had the most impact on me. Besides thinking I was about to be grounded for life for wrecking the bike- the only thing he said to me was “I will pay for your mistakes now and someday you will help others”. “Now lets put this bike back together.” I shall miss him. God Bless to you both.
It’s always lifficudt to know what to say at these times and not sound trite or cliched, yet we have to try as words are the only thing we have when attending funerals aren’t an option. I’m glad you found comfort from friends even though they weren’t there at least we know words count for something.
