Trudy and Larry Lang lit a candle

“In loving memory of Coleman Hale Jr., Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss. We sent the big bouquet of red and write flowers . Could you send me a copy of the obituary from the chapel. Weather kept us from coming . June Bug was my husband's best friend. I loved him. We talked every Friday night before the BIG RED football game. He would listen on the radio and call me with the score. Life won't be the same without him in it. Our heart felt sympathy is with you.”
