    Prayers for Miss Carol and the entire family at the loss of Mr. Ted. Will always remember what a kind and gentle soul he was. We enjoyed him visiting with us at the Grain Elevator during his breaks. God bless you all as you learn to navigate life without him......Deb

    Oh, how my heart breaks for the family. I know how hard it is to lose a precious family member. And Mr. Ted, was indeed, precious. I remember when in my youth, I'd run over to pick up the mail for my daddy or the store. Mr. Ted always greeted me and had a smile. My daddy always spoke highly of this family and enjoyed fishing, and having bologna sandwiches, frequently with Mr. Ted at the store. I know my brothers share in my grief at his passing, and will be praying for peace and comfort for this precious family.

    Ted Stanley was a great man of integrity and a man filled with common sense and love for his family and mankind. It only took a few minutes to see that in him. I pray for your family and assure you that God will provide for you during this time of loss. πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™ Sincerely with respect, Jerry Crawford
