Wendy Hatcher wrote a sympathy message

“Dear family, I am so sorry that you all have suffered so much loss recently. Mrs. Mary Lou, Butch, Tami, Sheri, and all of Gene's family, I certainly know what it is like to lose your dad, as we lost Lionell a few years ago, and my prayers are with you all. My own father, Roger, has told me stories of hunting with your dad and Paw Paw that were quite funny. I suppose those really were the days...! May God be with you in your time of grief. Wendy Hatcher and kids”
