My deepest sympathy to the family.

From the first day I met you, I was greeted with a huge smile and open arms. I NEVER seen you frown. If you were tired, just having a bad day it NEVER SHOWED. With that smile, was laughter, the gift of gab and when there was nothing being said, your whistling filled the room. I could always tell where you were in any room because of this. I might have had to run to keep up with you because YOUR walk was MY JOG. Your energy level was LIKE NO OTHER ! If you ever had a bad day,, I bet you didn't show it to very many people or NOT AT ALL !! If I'm sure about anything, I know that you are with Jesus Christ because you loved the Lord and HE ALWAYS SHINED THROUGH YOU . You were ONE OF A KIND ♥

Jr was such an amazing person. I was lucky enough to work with him for years at Krispy Kreme and he always made me laugh. My thoughts and prayers are with your family as you go through this valley. He will be greatly missed.
