You will be missed by so many, Grandpa. Tucker and I will forever be thankful for everything you’ve done for us. From letting me drive your car to and from Midland when I was learning to drive, to the endless trips taken with Gran to the Palo Duro Canyon to see the Texas Play. All of our trips to Carlsbad Caverns and going horseback riding. I will hold these memories close with me for the rest of my life. Gran needed you more than we did here. Everyone who knows you looks up to you; you lived a long life full of great memories, and changed many lives along the way. We love you, Grandpa.

Lubbock, Lions Club and The Salvation Army lost a wonderful community supporter. He was such a good example of an over-comer, community servant and my friend. I will miss Alton but have the assurance I will see him again. Sincerely.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
