We never met you Mr. Wheeler but felt we were friends. Since we moved into Cottage Hill over 3 years ago we have waved at each other more times than I can count. Can I tell you how many times you brightened my day; brought a smile to my face; I said a prayer for just having you there?
I saw the wreath and expected the inevitable, that God had called you home.
Our condolunces to your family. You will be missed by many.
With Love, Gene and Nelle Causey
He will be greatly missed! I’ll never pass his house again without remembering his big smile and wave! That was a big pick-me-up many days.
My prayers are with the family.
A fine gentleman and father, blessed by the lord, to a good old age. A great loss to the Cottage Hill Community.
Charlene, Lamar , Sorry to hear of your dads passing. Remember the good times together . May GOD be with you in your time of sorrow.
