To the Caudle family, it was a pleasure to have met your parents through my grandmother (Mrs. Lottie K. Bellamy). It was always a pleasure to be in your dad’s company, he was a friendly man, a great man. Whenever I ride by their home I always has the thought of as a child how we would dropped “Grandma” by there for one reason or the other. He will be greatly missed. Death has a way of changing your life forever. Thanks for the memories. May my grandmother and your husband/dad rest in peace. Just another angel watching over.
