My condolences to the family in the loss of your loved one. It is hard losing a loved one, no matter the age or the time. But if they have given their lives to God, we can rest assured that they are safe with the Lord by their side. Sgt. Dorsey was a dear soldier who was always respectful and performed his duties with honor and grace. He has gone to be with the Lord, who will keep him safe forever more.

I met Mr. Oscar a few years ago at Evans Garage and Tire. The staff and him always made my family and myself feel welcomed whenever we needed our car serviced. He would always ask me "do you know any Kellys from Sardis?" "How was work today?" And my answer would always be "No Mr. Oscar I don't know any Kellys from Sardis", lol. I learned of passing on Thursday and didn't expect to hear that... it felt so surreal. I felt like I had lost an uncle that day🥺. Mr. Oscar THANK YOU for our many conversations we have shared over the years!! And Thank You for serving our country!! Evans Garage and Tire will not be the same anymore without you. Go on and take your rest now, your work here on Earth is done!! Sincerely, La'Keisha Beniefield and Family #longliveMrOscar💔🕊️
Tammy and family weeping endure for a night but joy comes in the morning God never give us more than we can bear family just look to Jesus for strength in this difficult time love you all much
To Pat, Rufus and Tammie so sorry to hear about the passing of Oscar. Oscar was a very special young man I have known him all of his life. He was my neighbor for many years, even when he moved he would come by to see Ann and I. Always respectful, sweet and kind. We will miss Oscar, but he is resting. We love him but God love him more.
Condolences to the Dorsey family.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
