Harry and Betty Ann, George, and other Family Members, I hope it helps in some small way to know that others care and are holding you in our prayers. Mary
Harry, Betty Ann, George, and other Shotwells, For many years I thought the only people who lived on S. French Broad were named Shotwell or Hollar. We are never ready to lose our siblings and the only comfort comes from Faith in a Sovereign God and the concern manifested by caring friends. Please know we are thinking of you.
Zunita and Joe

We were so sad to learn of Larry’s demise and passing. He was a loving companion to my father for 24 years. His unflagging care and support during my dad’s final years were especially appreciated. We always enjoyed visiting with him and he continued to be a valued family member in the years since my dad’s passing. He will be missed and we are sorry we will be unable to attend his memorial service due to prior commitments. Know that our prayers are with you.
