Aunt Faye and Glenn, our deepest sympathies and prayers of comfort. While we have not visited in a few years, I always felt welcomed as part of the family when I married Annette. He was a wonderful man and true southern gentleman, full of charm and wit. He is re-united with our Papa Sam and Mama Brownie and Nina. We wish we could be there in person, but please know we are there in spirit. Annette & Scott Beacham

Faye and Glenn, I am so sorry to hear about Lenis. He fought a long time. I didn’t see him very much since I can’t walk but I still remember him being so funny and talking about things he and John got into growing up. I know Johnny has been very concerned about him. He will be missed by all of you but just know he isn’t in any pain I have all of you in my prayers.
