Condolences for
Milton Heffington
Mrs. Heffington and Jimmy, My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time. Some of my fondest memories of childhood include playing in the field on Raleigh Dr and watching Mr. Heffington as he devotely (and it always looked like he was enjoying himself) rode on his riding lawn mower cutting the grass. Let the joyous times you shared with him help carry you through this difficult time and know that he is at peace.

Rose and Jimmy, I too remember Milton riding his lawmower on the lot that basically adjoined everyone living in the area. He kept that lot in good shape for all the kids to play ball and I have seen him on the mower stopped and just watching. My sympathies and prayers are with you both. We all have fond memories of the times in your area..remember him with love and fondness as the days ahead face you without him..

Mrs.Heffington my thoughts and prayers are with you and Jimmy at this time. Mr. Heffington was a very thoughtful man. I remember even though he was not well himself he offered to do anything he could for me and my family when I visited you both at Christmas time and brought you the stew. Both of you were very sweet and I enjoyed my visit. May the Lord give you peace at this time. Love and God Bless you both, Terese Neblett
