Scotty was a long time friend and I just thought the world of him. May God comfort your family in this heartbreaking time. Dear Amanda, may you please know your Daddy loved you with the greatest love he had. As years passed and I saw him, you were quickly and lovingly spoke of. May the Lord comfort you.

Our truly deepest condolences for your loss, Jeff Norris and I had the pleasure of seeing him monthly for his insurance payment. I had also worked with him in my teenage years of life at Ingles. He was always a true pleasure to work with and always did everything he could to help bring a smile to your face. Every visit into the office he would ask about my family and also would ensure all of us were doing well. He will be greatly missed and we will be praying for the comfort that only God can provide in this time of need.
We wish you all well,
Steven McLemore and Jeff Norris and AAA Insurance
