Another good man gone. Had a lot of fun and laughter with Cecil, whose handle was Silver Dollar on the CB radio. He loved people, hunting, and his country…🇺🇸 Rest in Peace old friend..
Southern Gentleman
Another Southern Gentleman, one of the best, has gone to be with his heavenly father. He reminded me so much of my father. So kind, loving and always willing to give a helping hand. A continuous member of American Legion Post 79 for 29 years. We served together on the Honor Guard Team and you could always depend on Cecil when called upon to help the team provide the Military Honors for the Veterans and their families in our area. Rest in peace my friend and may your family share all those sweet memories of you for the rest of their lives. .
