So sorry to hear about your dad. This is such a hard time for both our families to be without our dads for Christmas. I know my dad was there to meet your dad and now all the golfing buddies are there together hitting the "greens" together.

Heaven has another Angel. Selfishly, I am glad I am among the many who were fortunate to call Mr. Tortorice Sr. a friend. Any time I was in his presence, he always had a smile and somewhere in the conversation would have a laugh. To my knowledge, he was the only non-employee allowed behind the teller line of Lamar Bank. He would bring in bags of quarters to be counted, and handle it himself. He enjoyed having the bragging rights. I asked him one time the secret to a successful marriage. His response was quick. If you get into a disagreement with your spouse, start laughing. After a little while, before you know it, your spouse is laughing with you and neither remember what the disagreement was about.
I will miss you. Thank you for being my friend!
Love, Linda
