Mrs. White, Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this sorrowful time.🙏🏾

I admired and respected Mr. White. I am honored to have known him, and his family. His life deeply touched our own. Though words may feel small in the face of him taking his eternal rest, we speak to them anyway—because a life as meaningful as his deserves to be remembered, cherished, and celebrated. His kindness was not loud or showy; it lived in the gentle things—soft words, warm smiles, steady hands, and the way he made space for others simply by being himself. He gave without counting, loved without limits, and listened with the sort of attention that made you feel seen in a way few people ever can. His laughter, the familiar sound of his footsteps, pacing throughout his shop, at that time. Grief is the price we pay for love, and he is worth every tear. Though he left this world, his story does not end here. It lives on in every life that he touched, in every act of love, and in every memory we hold close. Rest peacefully. You are remembered. You are loved. And you always will be. Prayers for his family Herman M. Spears
