My Grandfather was the greatest of all time. Always kind and friendly to whom ever he encountered. I remember visiting him and he offered the best route to get back to where you were going. He'd say " Little Billy", " you need to take the truck route back because it's quicker". Now it was quicker and scarier. There were no street lights on the truckers route. Just a two lane up hill down hill drive. Thanks Granddaddy, not sure if it was quicker but it was surely the most scariest drive of all time. I love you forever ,your grandson, "Little Billy"

To the Gilmore family myself and my husband Kenny extend our deepest condolences. It was thru our great friend / brother Amp (George Gilmore) that we met his father, Mr. Gilmore. He loved my husband as his own son. Thank you for sharing him with us, we are honored to have known him. Mr. Gilmore was a great humble Christian whom loved the Lord. We will cherish the memories created with him forever in our hearts. May his soul rest in Peace! Love each other as he would have loved you! Your truly, Kenneth & Clarissa H. Wesson

To George and family: May each of you be strengthened by the Peace of God today and also in days to come, as you reflect on memories about your dad. He was an amazingly kind gentleman and I always enjoyed talking with him. He always called me 'Ford Man' and made me feel welcome. My wife and I send our deepest condolences. Mr. and Mrs. Willie Finch, Jr.
