Special and ongoing prayers for you and your family, Catherine. I don't remember ever meeting your father, and I regret that, but you can't help but notice a constant opinion from the comments of those who did. And that is that your sweet dad was a kind, gentle, honorable, and Godly gentleman. Your family is so blessed! I now know why you have the heart and tenderness you do. God bless you!! Love you sweet friend!

I am so sorry to hear of Mr. Whites passing. He was a light in my day when I delivered him meals every other Tuesday through meals on wheels. He told great stories about flying and about Auburn. I loved our visits and watching his paintings progress. I am honored to have met him and I know he is in a better place, living forever with his wife and family that have passed before him. Prayers for comfort and peace for you all during this tough time.

Praying for all of you, as I know how much he will be missed. John and I always enjoyed talking to him, and listening to his stories. He was such an intelligent, thoughtful man, and was such a pleasure to be with. I know what a blessing he was to his family, and to everyone whose life he touched.  Much love to his precious daughter, Catherine, who is so much like her father, with such a giving heart.     Much love, Regina and John Orange
