Shari mattingly wrote a sympathy message

“To all the Lampkin family: I loved to see your dad on his scooter with his dog checking on the neighborhood. It was fun to stop and talk to him about the old days. He was a wonderful man. Best memory was him teaching me as a brand new mom how to clip a baby's fingernails. Such tiny little fingers and I was too scared to do it. He clipped her nails for several months. Our prayers are with you all. Denny and Shari Mattingly”
