To Dee's Family and Friends,
It has been almost fifty years since I worked with Dee at Waynesville Junior High School.  I am so sorry to learn of his passing but wish to let his family know that I admired his ability to adapt to challenging environments and remain kind and dedicated to the teaching profession.  May you find comfort in sharing good memories together and know that others care.

Danyiele, Princelen, Fadrian, and family,

Girls, who are now young ladies, I am certainly sorry for your loss.  But when I think about what your Daddy is seeing, I can't be sorry.

There was not a doubt that your Daddy loved you and he was always there for his girls and the ones they loved.  Even though you will not be able to see him again here in this life, make sure you know that you know you will see him again in the next life -- Heaven.  Until such a time, my prayers are with you now and in the days ahead when for no reason you become overwhelmed with the grief that will creep in on you.  Just know that is love.

I planned to attend the visitation, but an injury is going to keep me at bay, but know you were all loved and cared for in your days Junaluska Elementary School.  

With love,
       Connie Chambers Allen
