Everytime we return to Covington a must stop is the Hardware store. We will miss seeing Mr. Red back in the corner holding court with old friends. He is now in a different court room. A far superior one.
Wanda and Smoke we miss the neighborhood but miss the neighbors more.
Your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. May you find peace knowing he is now in the arms of our Heavenly Father. May the memories held deep within your heart comfort you.
To The Family I Would Like To Pay My Deepest Sympathy. I Will Miss His smiling Face And Witty Humor.
We are truly sorry for your great loss. We will cherish his memory and stories in our hearts forever.
To the Smith family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you at the loss of your father. Mr. Smith represented what is great and good about Covington: hospitality, friendliness, a sense of history, a sense of humor, and a love of his home and family. Best to all of you during this difficult time.
