My favorite memories of Dawg was listening to him talk about fishing, I went to High School at TIL and grew up at the cutoff, I would see him coming in and he would stop and talk to me about fishing and hunting. He was a good man. He's in a great place fishing now! So sorry for your loss Jan and to the family! RIP Dawg!
Be comforted to know that Ed is once again catching slab crappie. He was the one that taught me the difference between a "thump and a bump" crappie fishing. He was a true pleasure to be around and an irreplaceable part of the Tunica family.
Sorry to hear about Dawg. He was a good man and I loved growing up listening to him talk about fishing. Prayers to the family!
Dear Jan and family: Offering prayers today for God's comfort and peace as you celebrate Ed's life and the promise of eternal life through the Lord Jesus Christ. May His presence be felt through the people around you, the promises of Holy Scripture, and the presence of The Holy Spirit. “Now may the God of peace, who brought up from the dead our Lord Jesus — the great Shepherd of the sheep — with the blood of the everlasting covenant, equip you with all that is good to do His will, working in us what is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ. Glory belongs to Him forever and ever. Amen.” Hebrews 13:20-21
Grace and peace in Christ!

We will remember the way you looked over your reading glasses and your laugh and your goodness to our family. We have missed you and we will miss you always. You were loved.
I loved "Deputy Dawg". I remember talking him into running for Constable and he was the best ever! I'm sorry and send my love to Jan and the family 😘
