Dear Jeff, Mindy and the rest of the family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have very fond memories of your father/grandfather. Growing up, we (Turner’s) spent our summers camping, boating and fishing with your parents, and then with you, Jeff and DeLynn. Our parents/families spent so much time together. Your dad/grandfather was a wonderful human being. I loved him. He was always so kind to everyone. I realize the latter part of his life was challenging for all of you. May you find peace in knowing how much you are thought of during your time of sorrow. Many warm regards to all of you, Jennifer Young and family
