  1. No words can express how much My Rhyne meant to his down the street neighbors. Even if it was just a wave from the yard he was always a part of the street we've lived on for so long.
    He never could stop talking about Sammy & later little Brynn who he always had a smile about. He will be deeply missed by all.
