I didn’t get to see you and Doris much over the last few years, other than passing in some stores. I do have so many fond childhood memories of staying alot with y’all in the house on Goshen Rd in Montpelier. Those memories will always hold a special place in my heart. Rest in Peace. I love you always.
The Halls came into my life at a young age. You all have such huge hearts and cared for everyone. I remember Earl bringing Kristin over to our house and he always had a little dog with him. No matter how time went on whenever I saw them it was always a sweet moment. Sorry to hear about Earl. He was a great man. Thinking of you all.
Such a sweet man❤️ I didn’t know him very long but him and his wife hold a special place in my heart. I will keep Doris in my prayers.
Such a wonderful gentle soul who has blessed all who knew him. His legacy will live on through those who knew him. His crown in Glory is definitely filled with the jewels from His display of Christ’s love. Our condolences and prayers of comfort during this season of loss, but I know he has been welcomed into his eternal home were no pain or sorrow will be part of his days! Love you all!
I am sorry for your family’s loss. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
