Bills Words
Marlin Myers " He is the only man to ever help me when I was penniless
If you need something to do go and cut the grass with a pair of scissors
Who cares what the vehicle looks like, its better than walking
Punt Pass do something
Lead, Follow or get out of the way
Go count the cars on the highway
Don't Call, Don't Text Come See Me
Put Duct Tape on it
He was one of a kind
In Lieu of flowers donation can be made to the Children Ministries at
First Baptist Church , The Fields. |
