Our condolences to Sonya and the family in your loss of your father. God is in control and he doesn't make mistakes. Love Tom and Elata Truesdale.

Hello Family,

It’s with a heavy heart that I’m sending condolences to you. As a child, my Uncle George always welcomed “Deanie’s” children, not only as his nieces, but like his very own. I loved him deeply, and I love my family too. He will be greatly missed, but acknowledged by love. Your niece and cousin, Marian Woodfark Ramsey

Condolences to The Family. RIP Dear Soilder.
