Ms. Humphreys, we are sad for your loss. Your family has always been so good to us "girls". I recall many wonderful weekends in that RV with daddy delivering to us so generously. He was such a great soul, can't believe you are going through this. We also cherish your daughter and hope as an honorary member of the "all girls weekend" you will join us in the future.

Shirley I will never forget Carson and you when I was little and you guys came to our home in Childress. I thought he was the most handsome man I ever saw. The two of you were made for each other. I am so sorry he has gone on, I can't imagine how much you will miss him. I am praying for God's grace to see you thru this difficult time.
