Mr Harrell was a good friend to my Mom and Dad. Visited Dad while he was in his last days. Helped Mom when she needed it. We bought eggs from him. Good man.
Sorry for y’all’s loss. He was a good man. Your family is in my prayers.
so sorry for your loss my mother is Wayne's ex wife Cathy she sends her love and prayers fly high sir
I have very fond memories of Truitt and Beatrice when we rode horses and went on trail rides with them.
Jenkins lost a good soul on Friday. He will be missed by his family and friends.
Prayers for all.
First thing that comes to our minds of Truitt is the smile he greeted us with and his humor that shortly followed. His presence for worship at Lilley's Chapel Church of Christ was of great encouragement.
