    Our deepest sympathy to all the family. We had a great visit when he came out after Thanksgiving. We were at Mom's (Lynette) morning and then that evening at my house (Linda's) watching the OSU game and then supper. A great time of fellowship. He was a very SPECIAL MAN. Thought a lot of him and loved him very much. Loved the stories of Service and the pictures he always shared with us. Again our deepest condolences to all LOVE LINDA SAPP (MERCER FAMILY)

I have great memories of Him & Great Aunt Elaine when my Parents (Jerald & Donna) took my Grandparents (Thelma & Otis) to visit & go to the Wright Family Reunion. I will cherish these memories of them forever. Love Kris (Mercer) Pritchard
