I met Roland in 1980 when I played for the Oklahoma Sooners college softball team. Roland was the sweetest man who kept up with me even after graduating from OU calling me once a year on my birthday for 33 years. Four of those years were while I lived in Calgary, Canada. The last time I talked to Roland, he told me his health was going downhill. I told him I could let him go as long as he could tell me he knew Jesus. He assured me that he did and it was one of our sweetest conversations I shall never forget. I grieve as one with hope knowing Roland is with my Lord and walking without a cane. I shall look forward to the day I see him again. My condolences to the family of this sweet man.

I met Flint while working at the Elkton Acme. I grew up in Clayton, Delaware and just happened to know Mrs. Margaret Hurd, who was a very close friend of Flints. I told him that our backyards connected and that I knew her very well. He was quite pleased to know that and we became pals from then on. I always looked for him every Friday and we always chatted and cut up with each other. I retired five years ago and had spoken to him just in the past several months. He was a good man and I’m glad I was able to call him my friend. RIP Flint!!

I had the pleasure to be Flint's next-door neighbor for nearly two decades and will cherish (and miss) his many stories (can't share them all publicly) and family and local memories. We enjoyed watching the many ships, tugs, boats, bikes, and horses from his favorite room.
