Condolences

Condolence From: pfl
Condolence: Our condolences to the family. Death is an enemy, so says the the word of God. But God's word also tells us that God will soon do away with death in the future so near now. May God's promise to completely eliminate death forever strengthen all of you, until the time when you get reunited with your dead loved one. ( 1 Corinthians 15:26; Isaiah 25:8; Acts 24:15)

Condolence From: Gerald Campbell
Condolence: Sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Keegan, He and Mrs. Nancy were good customers of our business in Dover Tn.(Campbell Ford). Plus we became friends as a bonus over the years. Took me a while to figure out his sense of humor, but once I did he was a hoot...Thank you for your service to our country. May God bless and keep you Sir.

Condolence From: Keegan Spera
Condolence: My Grandpa passed away this evening. I'm looking through all of the photos he's kept through the years, reading the letters he saved, admiring his Army medals, stripes and patches and over and over again, seeing myself as a reflection of him.
He absolutely loved dogs. He was never without at least one dog and he spoiled them rotten. Oh the Beagles! He's the reason I love them ♡
He was an avid bowler. I loved when we went bowling together, from the time I was a small kid to even in college. His white bowling shoes always cracked me up for some reason.
He loved boating and camping. Being outside, near the water, and able to travel or stay because of the camper always made visits fun and adventurous.
He served in the Army and fought in World War II (693FA: Ardennes-Alsace, Central Europe, Normandy, N. France and Rhineland). He told me the most amazing stories from his time in the Army and sent me a ton of magazines. I loved learning from him.
He was tough and serious, but funny and ornery. One of those people you weren't sure if they were joking or not (do I laugh??). He loved deeply, though, and was a lot more sensitive than I ever realized.
I'm so thankful to have these pieces of his life to add to my heart's memories. The photo of him rowing the boat is my favorite--I don't know why, but I just feel like he's looking right at me, like we're in the boat together. I'll miss him.
