I was very saddened to hear about the passing of one of the finest people I have even known. Prentice was a joy to work with and I enjoyed talking with him at shift change. I will truely miss my friend. God bless you Prentice and your family. My thoughts and prays will be with them.

Unfortunately, time did not give us the opportunity to meet Prentice. Jennifer always spoke fondly of him and I know he will be greatly missed. Randy and I would like to express our sympathy during this sudden loss in your family.
