Patsy and family, My most sincere sympathy and deepest love to you and the family. Words fail me at a time like this but know that you all have been and will be in my prayers. Love, Susie (Wanda Stump) wpstump@suddenlink.net 2009-09-03 07:29:17

Mr. Riley was my first boss outside of high school (1988-1992). He was also my husbands boss at Lowes (1989-1991). We have many fond memories of him and have thought of him many times over the years. We are saddened to hear the news of your loss. May God be with you during this time and may your many memories keep Mr. Riley with you forever. David & Lisa Rhodes 2009-09-03 14:02:44

Patsy - I am so sorry about Hylbert. I keep wanting to call you after we came home from the hospital the first time but time just got away from me. And than when I saw both obits in the paper Wednesday, wow, I just couldn't believe it. But than I thought, I am so happy they could go to heaven together. I want to call you later if that is OK.

Patsy, we are so sorry for you and Susan and the grandkids. I know you all will miss Hylbert greatly. Just remember, our loss is Heaven's gain. You know, God did not promise us that we would live forever here on this earth, but praise God, he did promise us eternal life. The good news is that you will see him again where there will be no more separation or sorrow. With much love, Cousin Harold Harold & Louise Rakes 2009-09-04 11:37:19

You are in my thoughts & prayers. My husband has been disabled for 14 years now so I know the hardships you, Hylbert, and your family have gone through. He is now in a better place where he is no longer suffering and knowing this will provide some comfort I hope. We've had little contact over the years, but I think of my East Coast relatives often.
