Below is part of what makes me keep coming back.


Dear Tim,




So many thanks for your heartfelt words of condolence. They are a lovely tribute to Lucius and a great comfort to us all. It is wonderful to hear your high regard for Lucius, and I appreciate your thoughtful sentiments so very much.




With warmest regards,




Phoebe

Dear Phoebe and the rest of your family, I was shocked to hear about Lucius's passing. I want you all to know my deepest sympathies are with you. Lucius was a true gentleman. I can count maybe 4 or 5 men I have met in my life that I hold in such high regard. He always treated me with respect and a warm welcome. He was fair, funny and friendly. You can't ask for much more than that. Its been over 25 years since I first met you all at the old house, and I remember almost every time that I did any sort of project for you and Lucius. I know I am somewhat of only a business acquaintance but it always felt like more. That is a good thing to me because it feels like more than work, which adds some joy to it. I thank you two for that. I have lost quite a few people over the last 5 yrs and it touches me differently every time. Lucius and Rhoady Lee are 2 of the 5 I mention above, they both added to my life. Again, I am so grateful to have somewhat known these people, Lucius in particular and I will never forget them.

Sincerely, Tim Smith, Reed Wright Heating

    So happy you had the opportunity to know your friend (not just a business acquaintance) and that he had the blessing of crossing paths with you on his journey.
