| Cissy - Brandon is coaching basketball in Bell Buckle tonight. I talked to Harolene and since I am coming in that direction anyway, we are going to meet at the Shelbyville Wal-Mart and I will give her the CD. She said she would be there between 2-4 for visitation tomorrow and would give it to you then. I am so glad we could work that out. It is the least I can do for Tony . | |

| Patsy do you know where Harolene is staying? I won't be at the visitation until evening. We would appreciate the CD. | |

| No, Cissy, I don't know where Harolene is staying. I don't know if she meant those were the times she would be at the visitation or those were her arrival times. I am sure if you are not there, she will find someone you will know to leave it with. I am delighted to be of help. | |

| I have been away for a few days, and I am so shocked to hear about Tony. I met him years ago through JT and Marianne, and I had spent time with him a couple of years ago at Carl Johnson's barn. He was always so much fun and so smart and entertaining. He will be greatly missed.

| As I said before, Tony had been with us here on the trivia board since the very beginning. He was active in the original Report trivia thread long before I even I became involved. His knowledge of the breed went back a long way and as Cissy has always said, his mind was like a "steel trap". He has probably answered more "Who Dats" than anyone that's ever been on this board and he was such a consistent supporter and fan of WHT. He showed up on here like clockwork, every single day. Tony was a quiet member. He was polite to a fault. He didn't say all that much, but I believe he was entertained by the board and took great joy in being a part of our group and I'm so glad to have been part of that during his last few years. Tony had invited me several times to meet up with him on his yearly trip to Lexington for the Ga/Ky football game. On both occasions, I already had plans to be out of town and was unable to meet up with him.
I greatly regret not cancelling my plans to meet up with this special, unique, inspirational and fine, fine Southern Gentleman. | |

| I met Harolene last night and delivered the CD. Her truck was already packed in preparation for her drive to Georgia today. She had the MOST BEAUTIFUL floral piece. It was a huge horseshoe filled with black and red roses (Georgia colors). I know Tony would have loved it. He will be greatly missed by so many, including me. | |

| Tony was a very special person; he was well liked by everyone. He had a way of reaching out and touching his friends through his kind words and sweet nature. We are all going to miss him. My thoughts and prayers are with you; Cissy and the entire Carter family during this difficult time. If there is anything I can do please do not hesitate to call...Cissy I am here for you anytime you need to talk. | |

| Thank Ya'll for the kind words, thoughts and prayers for "our" Tony. I told his family that the board was closed yesterday for his funeral. They were touched by the gesture. He would have loved his funeral it was beautiful and sad but had moments of humor remembering his life. Patsy, I finally got to meet Harolene and now I know why Tony loved her so much. What a wonderful little lady! Again thank ya'll - this is hard - missing my friend has just begun. | |

| Priscilla had posted a request on WHChat for prayers on behalf of Jimmy Holloway who was in surgery. Randy Holloway had provided this information. Just saw an update from another source that Mr Jimmy "didn't make it". Hopefully, Priscilla will provide more information, I'm sure she is in contact with Randy. | |

| My deepest sympathy to Randy and his family. I did not know Jimmy that well, but he was a true southern gentleman. Robbie said Wallace and Holt were going to be pallbearers. | |

| So sorry about Jimmy Holloway. The Walking Horse industry has certainly lost some true supporters recently. | |
