Dear Editor,

No words could express the love and support we have been shown during the difficult time with the illness and after the passing of our loved one, Robert Albert Napier Sr. We have been blessed with an abundance of family and friends.

We are thankful for each dish that was prepared, cards of encouragement that Robert enjoyed being read to him, beautiful plants and flowers, donations, phone calls, visits that meant so much to us, and all the prayers.

Thank you, Charlotte County Rescue Squad, for being there when we needed you. We give special thanks to pastors Adam Blosser, Tom Canady and Jimmy Dunn for capturing Robert’s spirit with your touching words and memories. We are grateful to the men who served as pallbearers, to Cheryl Reynolds, Tony Trent and Papa’s Angels for your uplifting songs.

It meant so much to have you all take part in his service. We know that each of you that have helped in any way are grieving with us so we will all cling to our faith and ask for continued prayers for strength and comfort.

Dorothy Napier and Family

Charlotte County
