Mr mike family so for your loss
We are so very sorry for your loss. Lonnie is my cousin (my dad’s sister’s son) and we thought so highly of him. We have so many good memories of our family reunions at our grandparent’s house in Russellville, Arkansas. My memories of Lonnie are that he was a very kind compassionate person who valued family. He suffered a great deal due to the Agent Orange in Vietnam. I appreciate his sacrifice, but I am very sorry for all of his suffering. We will keep continue to keep your family in our thoughts and prayers.
I am a cousin to Lonnie. Our visits to our grandparents home in Russellville Arkansas hold so dear to my heart. Setting out under the tree listening to stories, playing music, and enjoying family time is unforgettable. Lonnie was so sweet, kind and genuine to everyone. He is now sitting under the tree in Heaven. Love and peace to all the family??
So sorry for your lost. Our prayers for you all. Sue tara carroll
