To Nancy, all the kids and grandkids and Hugh. When I saw Chips name in the obituary my heart just broke. I think of all the times I spent with the family as they came in and out of the office on Main Street where Mrs Barbara and Rebecca worked. We had many great times for several years sharing our hearts and our faith. I remember Nancy bringing the kids and stopping in at the office and I might be there making a delivery or spending time with my best friends and Christian family. I remember delivering even to the house where y’all lived. Nancy when I think of you I always think of an encourager to everyone always wearing that smile and I know that you were also to chip and your kids and family. I remember Chip, Hugh and others coming in the office many times as I was there. I was crushed when Rebecca and Barbara both past and I truly regret not staying in touch with all the family. Even though you were on my mind and heart many times. Your family blessed my family in so many ways that I have never forgotten. I sorry I dropped the ball on my part. I always highly respected Chip. He was a blessed man to have been born in a great family and to have such a beautiful family. He will truly be missed by the countless lives he touched. From all I can gather he had been sick for a while. I know that he is healed and he is with Jesus and his family and friends that has went before him. Heaven has just gotten sweeter and I can’t wait to see everyone again as well as all of you. I will be praying for all of you today as y’all celebrate Chips life. Praying for Hugh, and all the family. I pray that God will fill Keith,Tony, and all the other ministers that God’s will speak comfort and hope that we have as believers. I pray God will strengthen each and every one that will be grieving the home going of Chip. He will be greatly missed here on earth. But we as sojourners here and this is not our home. Please tell Keith and his family I said hello and I miss seeing all of you. When one is sad in the body of Christ we all are, when one is happy we all rejoice together. These past few days I have been shelfusly sad but also have a great peace of knowing where he is. Just know that I am praying for the family today and will continue to pray as the Holy Spirit puts y’all on my heart. Again I live in Mississippi now and have for the past ten years. May the comforter the Holy Spirit move greatly in all of your hearts today and in the days to come with the peace that passes all understanding. Your long lost friend and brother in Christ, Ricky Gunter
