Mr. Tiny was my father-in-law for 34 years and we remained friends. I can remember him leaving eggs on the porch in one of his hats he always had in hus truck. He called the eggs “hen fruit” He was a good man, a faithful servant of our Lord. There will never be another like him. Rest in peace Mr. Tiny.
You are in my prayers, and may God comfort you.
I loved and respect you so much my uncle tiny I enjoyed fishing with you and talking about the great Lord that we serve and his word I will miss you so much rest well in heaven with Aunt Faye by Uncle I will truly miss you in my life
He was a very humble, kind and godly man. My condolences to the family. He’s enjoying heaven and we will see our loved ones that have gone before us one day very soon if we know Jesus as our Savior. I know he had a great homecoming when he got there.
Michael and Denise, so very sorry to read of your loss. Waldo and I send our deepest condolences. Prayers for the Ward family.
