Sharon Spriggs lit a candle

“To: Shirley, Nathaniel, Morgan, Brooke and all the family of Roger Don Hooten. I cannot imagine the depth of your loss at this time. For a short time, God gave us someone on this earth named Roger Hooten that exhibited warmth and kindness. May the loving arms of Jesus be near you and keep you in the days ahead. Roger was an inspiration to me, and he stood back and watched a heritage of that inspiration be reflected in the many lives he touched. May God's blessings overtake you. Psalm 1:1-3”
