Dub was an original. Always full of life and happy. I have known him all my life and have enjoyed every time I saw him. Made me laugh and I made him laugh. Saw him almost every day at Dari Delite. Always had a story to tell me. I will always remember him.

So sorry to hear of Dud passing. Lyn and I got to know him when he came into Dari to eat. He was always so nice and friendly. Never had a bad word to say about anything.

Mr. Sidwell-
We wanted to let you know that your family is in our prayers. Your daddy was always so kind and sweet to us! He was true blue! So sorry for your loss!
Your daddies nickname for Berryt was "drugstore cowboy". He always got a kick out of his shorts and cowboy boots wardrobe! And Berryt always had to inform him that he was a "real" cowboy! And your dad would laugh and laugh!
We love you,
Jordanne and Berryt Garlin
Dub was a fine man and Christian. God bless you and comfort you.

Gayle, Jim, & all the family: I am so sorry for the loss of your dear dad. Leon and I both thought the world of him. He was such a good person and what I loved about him was he was so down to earth. May the Lord wrap His arms of love around you and carry you through this difficult time. I know he is home with the Lord and Betty. And altho you will miss him, I know he would not want to come back to this old earth. Thinking of you and praying for you. Leon and Reba Rollans
