To Romie, Glen, Norma Jean and the rest of the family...please accept my deepest sympathy in the passing of (my Uncle) Loyd. Even though many years have passed since I have been able to enjoy his company, I always liked being around him when possible. I thought he had a great sense of humor, and he was truly a fine musician. He brought a lot of happiness to those who were fortunate enough to be present whenever he made music. I wish I could be there now to support the family but, regretfully, I cannot. May the Lord bless and comfort each of you in this time of great personal loss.
