Karen Mason wrote a sympathy message

“Sending our love and hugs to the Ligon family. Mr. Ligon made a big impact in this world through his thoughtful inventions, caring way, and as a father and mentor. Thought it would be most appropriate to follow his example and give back to the world by planting 10 trees in a National Park, so all can continue to enjoy. Love, Karen and Tim Mason”
