"Everyone dies, but not everyone lives...."
Dad, you sure did live!!! The places you went. The people you met! The adventures you encountered! Many things people can only dream of fulfilling in a lifetime. You were my rock! My savior! I knew I could always depend on you, as you knew you could always depend on me. I will always cherish our memories, keep them deep in my heart, and fulfill every promise I ever made to you! I struggle daily, but I stay strong with your guidance during this trying time. I laughed every time I ran into a barrier this week, as I knew it was your way to keep me stronger and proceed. What I would give to hear you "yell" at me one more time! Today is YOUR day, and I give you my promise to respect, honor, and celebrate you in every way! I love you!!!! I'll always be daddy's little girl! RIP Dad!!!!

Jimmy K was such a funny, sweet and fun loving man. He made us out-of-towners feel at home at the Elks Lodge. We will miss his presence dearly! We will be praying for the family's comfort.

We will miss our many spirited discussions at the Elks, watching football, running into you on Eglin and your big hugs. Always enjoyed spending time with you, until we meet again! Rest in peace, prayers for you and yours ~Al & Melissa Wemyss~

As loved ones mourn over your absence , the heavens rejoice with your presence .
You have touched so many lives , each in your unique way .
The pain that we endure and the tears that we shed ,
are ways that will keep your memory alive within each one of us .
Dad , you will be missed but never forgotten .
Love always .
