Mark and family, I am sorry about your Dad. Keep all your memories stored in your heart. Take them out from time to time to share them with the people you care about and he will never be forgotten. God bless and comfort you and your family.

Dear loved ones of Ebb - this is such a shock to me - it is hard to understand. I do realize he had a very rough time breathing and it had gotten much worse. And we know that he is no longer in pain or having a hard time breathing. I had grown to love him over the years and loved stopping by his house and visiting with him - and always he gave me something to take home with me. Loved his knowledge of the Watts family, and how he was always willing to help me out with information about the different ones he knew. And how he was always ready to go with me - where ever it was - oh how I will miss him. He was a great man and one I know that when he got to Heaven last night - everyone was there waiting for him. God Bless each of you and may you have a peace that is beyond understanding. Love - Barbara
