My deepest sympathy go out to all the family, It's never pleasant when you lose someone you love in death it's as though your whole world is turned up side down. But there is hope, please read John 5:28,29.
Sincerely,
Artina

Our Uncle was truly a blessing. He touched our lives like no other and we will miss him and his uplifting spirit as well as his comic relief. May our Auntie, his mom, our cousins and the rest of the family and friends find comfort in knowing that he touched so many lives and made a difference. Rest easy Uncle on your journey. We will see you in the future with that big hearty smile. Love you!

Oh how my heart is Broken. I loved my brother so much. God is faithful. I know Lonnie loved the Lord and his family. He will truly be missed. He was a gentle teddy bear. Very pleasant to be around and I never heard him say an unkind word toward any one. Rest on in the arms of Jesus. Love you your oldest sis

Lonnell was a great man, and a great friend. It was always a joy coming to church and seeing him standing guard at those two middle doors greeting the members. He truly loved First Baptist and went out of way to shake hands or hug, or say something warm and friendly to everybody every Sunday. RIParadise my brother. Peace Be Still to your family.
