Clarance Christy wrote a sympathy message

“Hi Cousins, So sorry I couldn’t make it to the wake and funeral. Uncle Means was such a great guy. I remember when my parents, brothers and I were living in California and went back East to visit the Family and that was the first time I met your father, my uncle. Even though he was obviously an adult, I remember to this day he didn’t mind at all his nephews and nieces just hanging out with him. Definitely one of the best summers of my life. He will be deeply missed. Chris”
