I am so sorry to hear this! I worked with JR at Terra and Agro. Caught up with him again when his grandson was playing football for Palestine! He was always the same no matter where you seen him! He was truly a one of a kind and always knew what to say to make you laugh even on the worst days. He will truly be missed! Prayers for all the family! RIP JR

One of the finest men I ever knew in my life. I’m thankful the Lord allowed me to be a small part of his life. I surely can say that I’m better for it. Growing up in a small town has its advantages and this man was definitely one of them. A great example of a father, husband, step-father, grandfather, and second dad to a bunch of us that, while growing up, went everywhere together. Prayers for the whole family in the difficult days ahead. May God give you comfort and peace in your time of sorrow.
