Hi, I was "just looking" at obits for the past year on line in
Franklin/Bryant-Grant, and saw your Dad's. You and I went to Nantahala and
Franklin Schools together. I think you went to Franklin before I left
Nantahala for my junior year at St. Camillus in KY, then we graduated
together at FHS in 1963. Just wanted to express my sympathy for loss. Hope
everything is going well for you. I would love to hear from you.

Hi my name is Jeanna, I am so sorry for your loss.

I just wanted to let you know that Gene was a very sweet man.

I used to work at Big D and he would come by in the afternoons and he would have a soda and a little Debbie and would hang out with me for about an hour. He reminded me so much of my grandpa. I loved when he would come in and sit with me. He would tell me what he had done that day and was so full of joy. Again I am very sorry for your loss…I KNOW he will be greatly missed. God Bless your family through this loss. Your Family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you,

Jeanna Woolbright

Dear Pat,Mitchell,Jessie and all the family,

It was with great sorrow ,I learnded of your father's passing this morning.
He was a wonderful person and a great neighbor.
I remember the time when we lived on Mason Branch and Ray had just got out of the hospital and it was very cold and snow on the ground.We were about out of wood and here comes Gene with wood and stacked it on the porch.
These are things I can never forget.
I knoe you are going to miss him,but now he is in a better place .
My love and smpathy goes to all of you.
God BLESS YOU

Dixie Mason
