Dear Aunt Mollie, Barbara, Beverly and Leon:

I am so very sorry I could not be there today and tomorrow to pay final respects to my beloved Uncle John.  He was an inspiration to me in so many ways, as I'm sure he was to all of you.  He will be sorely missed.  My sincere sympathy to all of you.  May he rest in peace.

Love,


Emmett

My thoughts and prayers are with the Yancey family. Uncle John E. was very special to me and I loved him very much. He will certainly be missed.

May God continue to hold the Yancey family in the palm of His hand.  I offer my condolences in the transition of your husband, father, grandfather.  I have many fond memories of Mr. Yancey as I knew him through his beautiful daughter Barbara.  He and I had many conversations and correspondence over the years and each one was a blessing of sharing of his love and wisdom.
